COTW : Marcus Vick Scouting Report – A look back

In honor of Marcus Vick’s now famous thread of tweets sent out during the first half of the Eagles / Saints game in Week 9, I’ve un-retired an old “Chump of the Week” post about the younger Vick on one of my older blogs I used to run. For those who haven’t seen the tweets […]

NFL 2012 Week 8 Recap – Falcons Trample Eagles

I previewed this game and thought the Falcons would lose a close and physical battle to suffer their first setback of the NFL season. After all, an impending hurricane, a dome team on the road with a leaky run defense and facing an coach that was undefeated coming off the bye week, all pointed to […]

NFL Week 5 2012 : Redskins vs Falcons Preview – Griffin vs the Amoeba?

I really can’t help but admire RG3’s season thus far, his natural talent really jumps out at you, as well as his composure and comfort level.

Anthony Hargrove ( now with the Green Bay Packers ) and Scott Fujita ( now […]

Atlanta Falcons on HBO ‘Hard Knocks’ – No Thanks

A recent article from ESPN’s Pat Yasinskas, revealed that the Atlanta Falcons have appeared to be a top choice for this year’s “Hard Knocks” television series from HBO. While I understand Arthur Blank is a shrewd businessman, and that the televison series would give the Falcons and the city of Atlanta a significant boost from a national […]

Peyton Manning meets with Broncos – What’s next for Tim Tebow???

Watching ESPN’s live footage of a silver SUV taking Peyton Manning from the airport in Denver to the Broncos headquarters, OJ Simpson style, I can’t help but feel that John Elway is taking a huge huge gamble. After all, how can you discount what Tim Tebow has done for that team, that franchise? The same […]
