    NFL Hot seat

    And its not just the fact that they score from a statistical standpoint. Look at the playoff game. At the end of the day they did have 42 pts. but the reality of the game is that they fell behind 21-0 after going 3 and out on several possessions then they went into desperation mode going for...

    NFL Hot seat

    I know its not their 'way' but the brass at Pittsburg have got to start looking at Tomlin with a critical eye. Increasingly I see the team being unprepared for opponents that they should theoretically beat and there is an increase in the amount of 'foolishness' that is coming out of their...

    End of season moves by NFL teams

    You're right and all those things are actually true. The Rooney Rule does not dictate who you hire, it just stipulates you must interview a minority. You can still hire who you want to hire.

    End of season moves by NFL teams

    And I understand this point completely but it begs the question. How do you rectify the problem of years of being the guy denied an interview because of my skin color?

    End of season moves by NFL teams

    Disagree completely! Rooney rule is one of the best initiates the NFL has adopted. The only problem is when teams want that big name splash without vetting candidates like Oakland is doing. The rule is designed to get minority candidates exposure and ultimately opportunity which it has done...

    Vote for the 2018 NFL HOF Nominees

    If T.O. doesn't make it this time then the Hall will become even more of a joke than it did by putting Jerry Jones in last year. At the time they were playing T.O. and Randy Moss were the two best WRs period. Moss was just a freak of nature with amazing talent and skills and T.O. was a beast...

    How did you do this year?

    Played in 4 leagues this year. Won the champ. in 2 of them so %50 is not bad. One league I won I was undefeated and the top scorer by more than 600 pts. In fact my team was so dominant that it was week 6 before any other team scored higher than my lowest score. It was a format thing. This...

    Weather in week 14 worth noting

    You call that snow flurries?

    Stud to Dud

    Yeah, I think the smoke and mirrors are starting to be revealed. In the beginning of the season KC would score off of dynamic big plays. They didn't really sustain any long drives. Now defenses are shutting down the big plays and the offense can't drive the field. Amazing what a difference...

    Stud to Dud

    Trying to think of another player that fits this scenario. In all my years of playing FF I really can't think of another person that has suffered this type of decline. Has not been injured! Position has not changed! Role on team has not changed! Hasn't been benched! Hasn't lost QB! Hasn't lost...

    Jerry Jones being a ....brat

    The only thing keeping me from saying he is channeling Al Davis is the fact that he hasn't threatened to move the team. And I am sure that is highly unlikely since he has his shiny stadium.

    Well that settles it!

    If it is at all possible, stream whatever defense is playing the NY Giants each and every week! They were a horrible offense to begin with but now: No running game due in large part to one of the worst O-lines in the league. They have now lost their only downfield weapon in ODB. They have...

    Players Who Are What We Thought They Are

    The one that puzzled me was Ajayi. He is what I thought he was, I just don't understand why everyone else didn't see it. Last year he had 3, 200+yrd rushing games. Discount 2 because they were against Buffalo which after Ryan brought his brother over to run the defense made them even worse at...

    JJ Watt is DONE

    Still don't understand how this happens. Didn't seem like an unnatural motion injury and watching the replay there doesn't appear to have been any trauma like an inadvertent kick or something. All of which makes me wonder if this was a stress related injury due to excessive conditioning etc.

    Former LSU/NFL Great Y A Tittle dies at 90

    He was an amazing QB for any era! The Niners traded him after 10 yrs as their QB because they thought he was past his prime. He then led the Giants to the championship game the next 3 yrs and still holds 3 franchise records: Most passing TD's season- 36; Most TD passes in single game - 7; Most...

    Rivers/Chargers.......Manning/Giants Battle of the 0-4's

    Yeah but Rivers threw all his picks in one game. What happens when a dumpster fire collides with a train wreck? Guess we will find out.

    L.A.still doesn't support the NFL

    What befuddles me is the Chargers move. When I heard of their plan to go to LA my first thought was 'that is a terrible idea, no one in LA will support the Chargers'. So if I could clearly see that from way over here on the east coast how can a whole organization not see that. At least the...

    Yawn

    I kinda feel sorry for the London fans. They get the crappiest games to watch live every year. Seems like its always either Jacksonville or the game is a blow out. Last week it was Jacksonville playing in a blowout. If I were not a fan of American football there is nothing that I have seen...

    Hmmm

    In my deep bench league I drafted him late. I just don't trust that CJ Anderson can stay healthy for a whole season. I'm hoping Charles is starting by wk 9.

    Plethora of choices...

    Yes, and even if 'good Eli' shows up, they can't run the ball to take pressure of the passing game so he is going to have to pass the ball a lot... which means plenty of opportunity for sacks and eventual turnovers. If 'bad Eli' shows then you may be talking about multiple picks with at least a...
