In no particular order, here are a few of the storylines that we’ll be following this weekend:
- Looks like reigning league MVP Shaun Alexander is coming back. We’re going to go on record, and say this: His ridiculous TD totals notwithstanding, Alexander is an above-average but not great running back. He’s [read more]
Jason Campbell: A Day Late and A Buck Short
Date: November 14th, 2006 | 1 comment
Joe Gibbs has finally pulled the trigger on the move that many have been calling for for weeks now: he’s finally turning over the keys to the offense to QB Jason Campbell. Gibbs has claimed that he’s not mailing in the season, but just looking for some type of offensive spark. With [read more]
Week 9 Preview: There’s Really Only One Game That Matters
Date: November 2nd, 2006 | No Comments
Tom Brady. Peyton Manning. Bill Belichick. Tony Dungy. 6-1 Pats. 7-0 Colts. Huge, insanely overhyped game between two great teams, that probably deserves all the attention it’s getting. But we don’t really care that much, for three reasons: First, we’ll be out of the country on Sunday. [read more]
Somewhere Bubby Brister is Licking his Chops
Date: October 29th, 2006 | No Comments
Last week it was Bruce Gradkowski. This week it was David Gerrard. The Eagles haven’t exactly faced Joe Montana and Dan Marino, but they are doing a great job of making mediocre, unknown quarterbacks into superstars.
We hit the halfway mark of the season with an Eagles team that is now 4-4 after losing [read more]
Week 8 Preview: Just Glad Week 7 Is Over
Date: October 26th, 2006 | 1 comment
Last week was officially the worst week of the season thus far. On top of the fact that there was a slate of crap games on Sunday , the Bears were on bye, leaving us with the half-excited, half-depressed feeling we got after the Cards game for almost a full two [read more]
Guess We Should Chime In On This
Date: November 17th, 2006 | No Comments
In case you haven’t heard, there’s a big college game tomorrow, as the Wolverines of Michigan will attempt to defeat the Buckeyes of Ohio State by kicking an oblong leather ball through a large upright H. We anticipate it will be most exhilirating.
OK, so this post isn’t actually about the NFL, but [read more]
Week 10 Wrap Up: Have We Mentioned That We Hate Ed Hochuli?
Date: November 13th, 2006 | No Comments
We’re back from overseas, a bit earlier than expected. After we heard about the what happened at Soldier Field in Week 9, we changed our flight to get back early for the Bears-Giants game, knowing our boys would need all the help they could get. And, after seeing how poorly they played in [read more]
Breaking Our Sheepish Silence
Date: November 1st, 2006 | No Comments
After we so boldly predicted that the Seahawks-Chiefs game would be a complete cluster last week, we decided to bury our head in the sand for a while. Actually, we’ve just been out of town on business and haven’t been able to give our little NFL blog it’s due respect over the last several [read more]
Why We Hate Fox’s NFL Coverage
Date: October 27th, 2006 | 1 comment
Obvious reasons aside, our hatred for the Fox network has reached new heights today. Why? We’ll tell you why. Seneca Wallace and Brodie Croyle, that’s why. Because we live in the Seahawks’ ‘market’, this week we’re being forced to watch the Seattle vs. KC abortion, when we could be seeing a more [read more]
Bears Come Off Bye Week Banged Up
Date: October 24th, 2006 | No Comments
Coming off their comeback victory over the Cardinals last week, the Bears went into their bye week at 6-0. In spite of Rex Grossman’s hideous performance in that game, their offense still ranks near the top of the heap, and their defense has looked dominant on all but a few series this year. [read more]
