Roy Williams is out of touch
In case you haven't heard two days ago Roy Williams made a statement stating that he felt shafted by the Cowboys, placing the blame on Tony Romo. His reason was this; everytime the pass comes to him, he can't catch it, but when it's thrown to Whitten, it's a perfect pa ...

Harvin v Peterson
Yesterday, the NFL Channel ran a very interesting stat comparison between Adrian Peterson and Percy Harvin over the last few games. As much as Peterson has done for the Vikings, it was surprising to see that Harvin has actually done more recently. In Sunday’s game again ...

Russell, Gannon, Plunket and Stabler
“He has the best arm I’ve seen since John Elway,” announced Al Davis, not long after the giant JaMarcus Russell was drafted by the Oakland Raiders. Unfortunately, Elway had the motivation, willpower and mental capacity to become a winner on football’s biggest stage, all ...

Bills Midseason Report Card
This should be easy just give all units an F and move on but there has been some bright spots—not enough to overcome the Bills being stuck in a vortex of futility!! I will say this, the Bills organization is extremely fortunate that they have such loyal fans. Around the ...

Buccaneers’ history of purging some of its greatest employees
Let me take a breath before I dive into this...I am not one to pin this on anyone and I wouldn’t were it not for the glaring translucence of it. The Buccaneers organization has and still is systematically and intentionally trying to destroy the credibility of black athl ...

Free MNF Pick
NEW ORLEANS -11.5 vs. Atlanta This line is pretty big, especially for a divisional matchup against a decent Falcons team. But the Saints are absolutely rolling this year, not only undefeated but also 6-0 against the spread. Shades of the ’99 Rams with an offense that ca ...

Dolphins Ginn in New York
Returning a kickoff for a touchdown is a very rare thing in the NFL. While I don’t have an assistant to compile stats for me, like some big name writers, I can hazard a guess that it only happens about once every hundred or so kickoffs. That being said, it’s even more ...

For Raiders, the more things change, the more they stay the same
As expected, LaDainian Tomlinson was able to pad his Hall of Fame resume once again when facing the hapless Oakland Raiders. Tomlinson visited the end zone twice, which brings his season total to three touchdowns, all of which came while running through Silver and Black ...

Hard for Raiders fans to get charged up for this one
“The season is over.” How many times has that phrase been uttered by Raider fans since the fall of 2003? Far more times than the Chargers have beaten Oakland. Why is it simply okay to allow the air of hopelessness to hang around like a San Francisco fog? The Raiders ar ...
