There was once a time when playing under a roof for Brett Favre was like kryptonite to Superman. During his 16 seasons with the Packers, Favre compiled a .467 winning percentage (21-24) when playing indoors, compared to a .668 winning percentage (139-69) when playing outdoors. Since his last loss indoors on Oct. 23, 2005, however, Favre has won his last 11 games. That 11-0 mark includes...

The one guy we were neglecting so far was Minnesota’s Percy Harvin, who has slowly and quietly started to put up numbers and become a favorite target of Brett Favre. This is a guy Brad Childress took a big gamble on that so far is paying off. But Byrd and Laurinaitis are holding [...]

BRETT FAVRE WILL BE BACK: In a kind of surprising move, Brett Favre informed the Packers that he will be back next season. All signs pointed to him walking into the sunset after a brutal 2005 season. But, Favre will make one last go around [at least] much to the delight of Packer fans. I guess the Aaron Rogers era won't begin just yet. RICKY WILLIAMS WON'T BE BACK:...

What a weekend this was...and not just because my Redskins clinched their first playoff berth since 1999. It was one of the most emotional days I've seen in quite some time. You had:*Tony Dungy's emotional return to the Colts sideline after burying his 18-yr old son earlier in the week. *Dick Vermeil hugging everyone on the Chiefs sideline as his career came to an end...

Remember the Vikings-Packers game last Sunday? Of course you do.

A facinating development is going on in the NFL. With job openings all over the place....teams aren't going after those big names to fill them. It's those guys who work for the big named coaches that are getting the jobs. There are SEVEN jobs filled....and only ONE of those jobs was by a guy with prior head coaching experience. That was Herm Edwards, who left the Jets...

As you can tell by the title, I have already assumed the coaching staff will be axed.
