Phil Richards chronicles the unlikely rise of Robert Mathis including a story about how he got his scholarship: Ron Cooper, coach at tiny Alabama A&M, was watching video. He was looking at another McNair player when an opposing cornerback sliced in, intercepted a pass and took off for the end zone. Forty yards downfield, a smallish guard ran him down. Cooper reran the tape. And again. Hmmm, he thought. The coach had one scholarship left to give. He gave it to Robert Mathis.

This is an ESPN insider piece, but it basically makes the case I've been making for two months now. It's all about Peyton. Highlights include: The best quarterback switch a team has made after a disaster season is the 2007 Miami Dolphins, who inserted Chad Pennington and went from one win to 11. Think about that: Pennington has been the best upgrade for a league-worst...

Colts Greats: Tom Moore

Via The Colts Authority  |  November 11, 2011
Assistant coaches aren't welcomed to the Hall of Fame.  They should be, but that's another story.  Were they welcomed among the first to enter would be Tom Moore.  Luckily the Colts are taking matters into their own hands and giving Moore a proper tribute in a place he'll always consider special: But while Moore no longer is a Colt, he'll forever be a Colt. ...
