Brian Urlacher is an NFL veteran, so you would think he would know better than to pick a fight with a Hall of Famer like Gale Sayers. Especially since Gale Sayers was such a great player for Urlacher’s team, the Chicago Bears, way before Urlacher was even born. The whole feud is silly because Gale Sayers was speaking at a banquet when a fan asked him his thoughts on the ...

The Green Bay Packers announced today that 2009 top draft pick BJ Raji will be the starter at NT for the 2010 season. This moves comes at a bit of a shock, considering the success the defense had last year, finishing second in overall defense and boasting the top rushing defense. However, instead of keeping as much of the line the same as possible, now Raji will replace Ryan Pickett at ...

After the Packers lost a heartbreaking shoot-out against the defending NFC champion Arizona Cardinals in the first round of the playoffs last year, most Packers fans came away from the game with mixed emotions. Yes, they were upset to be eliminated so early in the playoffs, but they were also excited for the future of a team that looked like it was firing on all cylinders towards the end of the ...

When the Lions blindsided their star quarterback Bobby Layne with news that he had been traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers in week two of the 1958 season, the star quarterback, newly recovered from a triple leg fracture that prevented him from finishing the previous year’s championship run, was bitter...to say the least. Perhaps rightfully so—it was Layne that won back-to-back NFL championships in ’52 and ’53 for the Lions and set ...

The average tenure of an NFL head coach is just over two-and-a-half years. Every year, coaches go into the season with uncertainty towards the future. Some have a make-the-playoffs-or-end-up-in-the-Monday-night-football-booth situation, while others just have to win more games than they lose. Only three coaches have been in the league longer than 10 years—Jeff Fisher, Andy Reid, and Bill Belichick. I wonder why anyone would want to be an NFL head coach?   Eric Mangini: ...

The NFL is filled with records and facts, some being more elevant than others. But, just how many of these records are there for the time being, and how many are there to stay? I think that many people will agree with the way teams are scoring these days, that the offensive records will be safe for a while. We should assume that Favre and Manning will have a lot of ...

I can't wait to have kids one day.  Having children of my own, scampering about in a little Aaron Rodgers jersey would definitely be the greatest thrill for me.  I guess what everybody says is true, "When you have kids, it's the greatest joy that could ever come out of life." But as exciting as this must truly be, what if your son became an NFL star, only to become one ...

Okay everyone, with the draft in the rear view mirror it is time for predictions: who's going dancing in the 2010 NFL Playoffs? This format will be simple: I'll look at teams in the AFC that made it last year, pick "in or out" for all of them, and then predict who I think will fill the vacated spots. I'll then do the same for the NFC. Teams make appearances in ...

Brett Favre finally broke his silence today on the subject of his return to the NFL for the 2010-2011 season with the Minnesota Vikings. As all football fans know, Favre was in the middle of the controversy surrounding his retirement from the NFL, which became a major blow to his reputation. This happened once he retired with the Green Bay Packers, then unretired and was forced out of his job ...

 Former Jet wide receiver Santana Moss reportedly received human growth hormone from Canadian Dr. Anthony Galea, who was charged this week in Buffalo. The Washington Post reports that Moss, now with the Redskins, was the player the player Galea's assistant was going to visit when she was arrested in Sept 2009. Moss played for the Jets from 2001-04 before he was traded to Washington. His brother Sinorice, is ...
