New York Jets wide receiver Braylon Edwards just caught a break. At least he cannot drop this one (sorry, couldn't resist). Reported by NBC Sports, Edwards will avoid any suspension from Roger Goodell and the NFL league office for getting into a fight with a friend of NBA Superstar LeBron James at a Downtown Cleveland nightclub just days before getting traded to New York. Rumors were circulating around the NFL that Edwards would ...

Quarterbacks What more is there to say that hasn't already been said about Saint Brees? He truly elevated himself into the top NFL echelon and now has a ring to prove it. Undoubtedly a top 3 guy, Drew Brees moved himself ahead of Brady in my rankings and is tied with Peyton Manning. Falcons' QB Matt Ryan is the best "young" QB around. He had an incredible rookie year leading a team seemingly ...

As went Troy Brown and Wes Welker, as went the Patriots offense. If the Patriots needed a tough catch, Tom Brady would seek out No. 80 then and No. 83 now. Just as Drew Bledsoe had Ben Coates, Brady has been blessed with two players in his career that seemed to read his mind.  Brady threw it and they caught it. Simple as that. Brown and Welker were cut from the same cloth and ...

We all know that Ben Roethlisberger has been, essentially, torn to pieces by not only the media, but by fans. And not just by opposing fans like he’s used to. Fans of the Pittsburgh Steelers have been railing him for his off the field actions as well. I’m one of the guilty parties, and for that, I must apologize to not only Roethlisberger, but ...

When the clock struck 8:00 pm on April 22, 2010, Buffalo Bills fans were anxious to see which quarterback or left tackle the team would select to fill one of the two most glaring positional needs on the team, due to the loss of former left tackle, Jason Peters, in a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles. Instead, General Manager Buddy Nix decided to wait until the third day of the draft ...

Now that taking Alabama to a National Championship has once again put Nick Saban on the radar of the NFL, the former Dolphins coach has finally addressed the sour end to his first tenure in the league. Saban apologized for any "professional mishandling that might have occurred" when he left the Dolphins for the Alabama job. Despite his claims otherwise, the Alabama job that he pursued while still being employed by the ...

The 2010 off-season has been a fairly quiet one for the Dallas Cowboys, especially by their standards. Outside of the drafting of highly touted wide receiver Dez Bryant and the release of the highly criticized Flozell Adams, there have not been any major happenings in Cowboy camp. Here are five moves the Cowboys need to make by the end of the off-season to have a more successful season ...

Out with the old and in with the new. NFL stadiums are just getting bigger and bigger. In 2009, the Dallas Cowboys moved into their new home at Cowboys Stadium which seats 80,000 fans and can increase that number to 111,000 with standing room ticket sales. This season brings another large stadium which is opening and that is the New Meadowlands Stadium (pictured while under construction) and can hold 82,566. It is the second ...

(Writers note: comments interspersed in italics are fan reaction to Thursday's article in the Biloxi Sun-Herald.) Seems Brett Favre—the "now-I'm-retired-now-I'm not" man—is getting downright decisive in his old age. Favre, the future Hall-of-Fame QB with a long resume of legendary playoff meltdowns, told the Biloxi Sun-Herald on Thursday that he still feels he can play at a "high level" after 20 seasons, and he would love to go beat the Saints ...

What is a 4-4 pass scheme? Well, it's not exactly proper football terminology, but in terms of making a descriptive article title, I don't know a better expression. The signing Thursday of Dedrick Epps surprised me. Not because he isn't any good. He is. Not because the Chargers seventh draft pick was a throwaway, it wasn't. But because the Chargers roster already boasts three signed and contracted tight ends—Antonio Gates, ...
