In Celebration of their special day, I looked for inspirational mother stories. Looking throughout football, the list is astronomical. Nearly every time a player makes a speech he thanks his mother first. Every time a camera zooms in on a player, he usually says " Hi mom!" So, in all fairness, there were plenty of good stories for "Top Mom." But the hands down winner comes from the small town of Preston ...

Coming into the 2010 off-season, the Green Bay Packers secondary looked to be in shambles. The defense had just given up 45 points to the Arizona Cardinals offense in their wild card playoff game, an unexpected end for the league's number two-ranked defense, largely due to their inability to stop the Cardinals passing attack. While the pass rush failed to reach quarterback Kurt Warner all game, beyond that the ...

The word bust in the NFL goes hand-in-hand with first round NFL draft picks who do not pan out and become the star that their first round draft status precedes. For the Peyton Manning and LaDainian Tomlinson's of the draft, there are also the JaMarcus Russell and Lawrence Phillips of the first round too. The following are five potential NFL rookies that could join the Bust Club as the newest members a ...

May is here, that means Fantasy Football Dynasty and Keeper leagues are firing up for their rookie drafts. A very exciting time for the Dynasty/Keeper owner as they likely watched the NFL Draft process anticipating who they would draft themselves. It has been a couple weeks since the 2010 NFL Draft, now it is time to take that fantasy football turn here at Football Jabber. Today we are looking at ...

At pick No. 160 of the 2010 NFL draft, the Cleveland Browns selected big hitting safety Larry Asante from Nebraska. Although he doesn't have the elite draft status of fellow safety and teammate T.J. Ward, Asante was ranked higher in some publications and may end up a valuable member of the Browns secondary rotation. Asante was a three year starter at Nebraska and averaged over 70 tackles per year. He was ...

It's inevitable in the NFL, sooner or later you're going to see a rookie have to step into the game and you hope and pray that the veterans and coaching staff have trained him ably. The Steelers aren't generally a team that likes to start rookies, but per usual, the best player will play in this system. No matter if they've been around for five months or five years - if ...

The 2010 NFL Draft class exhibited some of the most explosive, as well as versatile play-makers that fans of the league haven't experienced in quite some time. There were plenty of surprises in the draft, as Tim Tebow was selected in the first round, while highly qualified Notre Dame quarter back, Jimmy Clausen slid to the Carolina Panthers in the second round, despite being regarded as a Top-10 selection. Featured is a ...

If you look around the Internet for fantasy football positional rankings, nobody has anything shocking happening the first round. It's all pretty standard. Chris Johnson, Adrian Peterson, Maurice Jones-Drew, Ray Rice, Frank Gore, Andre Johnson, Michael Turner, Drew Brees, Steven Jackson, DeAngelo Williams, Cedric Benson, blah blah blah. BORING! Let me be the first person to really go out on a limb and say, Shonn Greene has the potential to dominate and ...

For any avid NFL fan, it is no secret that the first thing you learn when becoming a fan of the game is just how vital the quarterback position truly is. The quarterback is the lifeblood of the team, the backbone of the organization, but also the guy that tends to undergo most of the criticism and blame when a team falls apart. In 2009, the quarterback position was seemingly solid for ...

The Titans have had some pretty good draft since Mike Reinfeldt. This year could be his best yet. Some really big names were taken along with some potential risks. For this series I'm going to break down each pick individually and let you know how successful I think they will become. The Titans' second sixth-round pick is probably one of the most known stories coming out of college. Myron Rolle ...
