Aaron Rodgers Photobombs With Eye-Patch
Aaron Rodgers performed quite possibly one of the best photobombs we have seen in quite sometime. Chck out the lovely below photo of Green Bay Packers’ James Jones, Erik Walden and Bret Goode lined up with some very serious faces.

Rodgers: WR Jones making most of opportunities
GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has a chance to lead his team to a fourth consecutive win if they can knock off the visiting Arizona Cardinals this Sunday at Lambeau Field.
In his weekly meeting with the media, Rodgers talked about losing to the Cardinals in the playoffs three seasons ago, not getting sacked by Arizona's top-ranked pass-rushers and much...
Rodgers finally letting his words flow
GREEN BAY, Wis.-In one of this seasons most memorable postgame interviews, Shhhhh is what Aaron Rodgers recently hissed when asked if a 42-24 rout of previously unbeaten Houston had quieted Green Bays critics.
Quite the understatement from a player who has become one of the NFLs biggest chatterboxes.
Entering the FOX Americas Game of the Week between the Packers and visiting Arizona...
Blitz Chicken: Rodgers vs. Cardinals Defense
There might not be a better quarterback against the blitz in the NFL than the Packers' Aaron Rodgers, who was historically great last season and excellent this year, as well. Surprisingly, Rodgers has seen a lot of blitzes this year — and probably will on Sunday against Arizona.

Packers Making the Most of Opponents’ Penalties
Packer coach Mike McCarthy conversing with a pair of refs.
The Packers have had plenty of calls go against them this season, but they’ve also taken advantage of some penalties that have gone in their favor.
Remember the Packers opening drive against the Texans? Aaron Rodgers missed an open James Jones deep and we all groaned while trying to figure out what the heck was wrong...
Keys to avoiding second half struggle for the Baltimore Ravens
The Baltimore Ravens (5-2) lead the AFC North by one game over the Pittsburgh Steelers. If they plan to stay there many corrections need to be made and fast. Who would have thought that playing the Cleveland Browns in November would be a meaningful game, but with such a slim margin for error, the Ravens can’t take any game lightly.

Ravens Offensive Coordinator Cam Cameron Defends Usage Of RB Ray Rice
When offensive coordinator Cam Cameron watched tape of the Ravens first seven games during the bye week, one thing repeatedly stood out, and it wasnt the workload of Pro Bowl running back Ray Rice.
We are at our best obviously when we execute, but when we get everybody involved, said Cameron. The more continuity we have, the more guys we keep involved. Obviously, we know...
Talking talking talking (and talking some more) about the Ravens
Not in a long time can I remember this much talk between teams heading into a game as there has been leading up to this Sunday’s match-up between the Browns and Ravens. Trent Richardson is going to exchange jerseys with Ray Rice. The Browns think they’re a different team than the one that lost on Thursday night. Trent Richardson is the hardest player to tackle in the league according...

Therefore it is important for a starting quarterback to always do their best and win football games.Week 8 was an interesting one in the NFL for the quarterback position because...
Bets that pay corner (9-1 so far this year.....)
So my man Grinda is back with his weekly picks. He went 5-0 last week, and 4-1 the week before. What I am saying is that there is free money to be had...Baltimore Ravens –4(-105) @ Cleveland BrownsBaltimore will roll this week. I think this is a sure bet because Jim Harbaugh is one of the better coaches in the league, and with an extra week of preparation, he will be able to facilitate...

Reflections at 4-4
Louis Bacigalupi posts comments on the site as LouieLouie. He’s an accountant by trade and worked in a USFL front office. He can be reached by email at Louie@fiercelyI.com.
Before the regular season began, I hoped the Seahawks could be 4-4 halfway through the season. They could have very well been 3-5, or 2-6 -- They played five games on the road; their three home games...
