Turn on the radio, news, sports talk, almost everywhere Tim Tebow is taking over. As the NFL continues to struggle to find a way to stop Tim Tebow from winning a simple way to stop him does exist. How? It's almost impossible for someone to complete only two passes and still win, but Tebow continues to prove doubters wrong and finds a way to win. While it may not...

Every week, Florio fields questions from readers during PFT Live. And when we remember we post it right here. Topics covered Thursday: Frank Gore, Comparing Donovan McNabb to Daunte Culpepper, and the AFC playoff picture.

With Houston down to T.J. Yates and Kellen Clemens and either Brodie Croyle or Sage Rosenfels or maybe Dan Pastorini, it’s critical that the Texans add a quarterback with veteran postseason experience, if the team hopes to have a good experience in the postseason. They’ve scratched Favre off the list, sort of.  And for good…

Hillis has compiled just 211 rushing yards and two touchdowns this year....

I did get something sort-of resembling a Watchtower up before the Falcons game on Sunday, if only just. Without any of the historical breakdown or schematic analysis, I just looked at season ranks and averages. It was done entirely on my iPhone in stolen moments. It looks like it: The Falcons have the NFL's 17th-ranked offense, averaging 22.5 points per game. The passing...

Our buddy Peter Burns passed along a picture of former NFL quarterback Daunte Culpepper DJing at Tryst nightclub in Las Vegas. We can’t 100% confirm that it’s Daunte, but it sure looks like him. To the best of our knowledge, he’s not doing much else so he probably has the time to hang out at [...]

If, during the long dreary lockout months, you engaged in a Completely Useless Waste of Time, when you came upon “vs. SFO” you doubtlessly checked the “W” side of the ledger. Instead, the 4-1 49ers come to town as one of the hottest teams in football. Coming off a 48-3 dismantling of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, my favorite predictive metric thinks the 49ers are the fourth-best...

After having Mary Garrard on his back to get back in the league, David Garrard has forged a friendship with Daunte Culpepper.  At this point he assumed some team would quickly give him a chance to be a back up. He is interested in the Miami Dolphins, but right now it seems the team is  backing

Only one team in NFL history has gone 0-16, the 2008 Lions. 5 weeks in there are 3 teams still winless, The 0-5 Colts as well as the Rams and Dolphins at 0-4.

One of the players signed by the Dolphins on Sunday was former Minnesota offensive lineman Ryan Cook. He was a second-round pick in 2006 and ironically that pick was obtained by the Vikings from the Dolphins in the trade for quarterback Daunte Culpepper. To get the lowdown on what kind of player the Dolphins got in Cook, we checked in with VikingUpdate.com's Tim Yotter.

The San Francisco 49ers went in a different, lower-profile direction to fill their third quarterback job, signing Josh McCown today instead of Daunte Culpepper.
