With the speculation all but gone that with the first pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the Indianapolis Colts will select Andrew Luck, quarterback, out of Stanford University. The 2012 NFL Draft looks to have as much drama, or maybe less, surrounding the number one overall pick than in 2002 when the Houston Texans announced […]

New York welcomes in the fist pump. No were not talking about the guys from the Jersey shore but the Jets have selected former Miami Dolphins head coach Tony Sparano to be their offensive coordinator. Reports came out Tuesday night that Jets OC Brian Schottenheimer had resigned, and within an hour Chris Mortenson reported that […]

All the necessary ingredients for a Falcons upset were available on Sunday: a wildly inconsistent New York Giants team, a sleepy and indifferent home crowd, a fired-up defense and a set of offensive weaponry in red and black to rival anyone in the game. In the middle was an up and coming quarterback, now in […]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=Zra0Br1NK5c?wmode=Opaque Time to Rock N Roll playoff style! Denver Broncos 29, Pittsburgh Steelers 23– Do you believe in magic?  By The Lovin Spoonful Everything you thought would happen in the first half in this game, well throw it out the window because the exact opposite happened. The Broncos, led by their spiritual leader and QB […]

Playoff football, they say, is not a game for the faint of heart – in the stands or on the field. So perhaps it’s fitting that this playoff game was won by a player whose faith in himself is apparently boundless, even if he was the only one left that believed. The Denver Broncos started […]

So far, Eli Manning is responsible for all nine points on the scoreboard. His ill-advised sprint backward into his own end zone and pass to nowhere while escaping the Falcons’ pass rush opened the scoring, giving the Falcons a 2-0 lead. Then, after grinding out a long drive including a critical make on fourth and […]

Jeff Fisher, although not a Super Bowl winning coach, is the prized candidate this off season for teams looking to overhaul their organization. Fisher has already narrowed down his choices down to two different teams, the Dolphins and Rams. Yahoo’s Mike Silver tweeted today: “For those of you waiting for Jeff Fisher updates–he’s indeed heading […]

Playing in your team’s first ever playoff game gives you the opportunity to get in the record book for all kinds of things. The Texans’ first ever playoff touchdown? Arian Foster on a 9-yard run around the edge, on a perfectly blocked play, then followed it up with a “Dream Shake” tribute to Hakeem Olajuwon. […]

Maybe the Giants just don’t like being favorites. In their 2007 miracle season, they entered the playoffs as a 10-6 wild card, unable to win their division. They knocked off favored opponents on the road in three consecutive weeks to reach the Super Bowl, where they found themselves two-touchdown underdogs to the unbeaten Patriots. We […]

For most of the season, the Philadelphia Eagles were considered the poster team for underachieving. But in the end, the New York Jets gave them a run for the title. The Jets ended on a three-game losing streak, finishing 8-8 and missing the playoffs for the first time under Rex Ryan. They played an easy […]

The Houston Texans might be the Cinderella team of the AFC playoff bracket, but if this weekend was supposed to be the ball, the Bengals are the party crashers that just might stay all night. No matter how good AJ Green was supposed to be, no one expected the Bengals to be here. Not after […]

The 2010 New Orleans Saints have the ignominy of being the only team in NFL history to lose a playoff game to a team with a losing record. After a busy offseason, they established themselves as a dominant force in the league once again, but find themselves with another dangerous wildcard matchup against the Detroit […]

The Texans have been so close to being a playoff-worthy team for so long, that it’s not that surprising to see them finally cross the threshold. It IS surprising, however, to see them do it without Mario Williams, Matt Schaub, or Andre Johnson, the three franchise cornerstones. Now they face a brave new world with […]

Much expectation has been heaped on Matt Ryan at an early age, though he invited it on himself after leading his team to the playoffs in his rookie season, and to the NFC Championship last year. After a sluggish start that had us questioning whether the Falcons had slipped backward, Ryan and his outstanding receiver duo […]

Even in his last days, count Raheem Morris among those who believed he should stick around for at least one more year with the Bucs:  “You don’t go from being a coach of a year candidate to being the worst coach in the league to get fired within a year. It’s about us. It’s a […]
