The Coolest Things About Opening Weekend
September in the NFL is like spring for nature. Everything is new, fresh, and exciting; even the hapless Raiders can instill hope during this opening month. Right now, we are mired in pro football's opening weekend, one of the most exciting times of year (for me at least). Here...
Redskins at Giants: Keys to Victory
We're about two hours away from tonight's game. Here are my "keys to victory" for both teams.
NFC Sleeper Pick
My Super Bowl prediction is New England over Minnesota, but there's one team that I'm really high on (and no one is talking about) and I think has a chance to compete for the Super Bowl: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Here's my case for why they could represent the NFC in the Super Bowl.

With the summer coming to an end, and NFL season almost upon us, I felt it appropriate to compare the season's summer movies (that's plural...there actually were other movies besides The Dark Knight) to the week one NFL matchups. So here it is.

Criticizing SI's Top Players
I just saw the Sports Illustrated magazine's annual season preview, and in it was Peter King's rankings of the top players in football. I saw the list, compared it to my own, and saw a lot of discrepancies. King probably knows more about me than football, and is around the...

One and two are probably obvious to you if you, well, have a passing knowledge of football. After that it's pretty subjective, so here's the criteria I'm using (in no particular order or weight): value to team, youth, contract, and potential/upside. By value to team, I...

Down Year for Running Backs?
Last year was a pretty big down year for running backs. Among elite backs, LaDainian Tomlinson did not come close to repeating his MVP season, and Adrian Peterson's stellar rookie campaign was cut short. Other backs disappointed as well, as guys like Shaun Alexander failed to justify...

Yesterday, I made a list of eight players who I thought were the most overpaid in the league. Today I'm doing a list of the eight players whose play more than justifies their contracts, and deserve a new deal soon. Follow the URL to read the whole article.
Kevin Curtis is Down
ProFootballTalk is reporting that Philadelphia has lost their number one receiver, Kevin Curtis, for "a significant amount of time" due to surgery for a sports hernia. This is a guy who posted a 1000-yard year last year, and a major loss for a team that was poised to be in...
Matt Cassell Controversy
Matt Cassell has never really turned it on in his years as Tom Brady's backup. The guy who almost won the USC starting job over Matt Leinart is now the punchline of jokes in Boston. Should he be the odd man out in the New England backup QB competition? Follow the URL to find out...
NFL's Most Overpaid
These are a few players around the league who are grossly overpaid compared to other, often better players at their position. I decided not to do rookies, because then I'd have to include every guy in the top 15 by virtue of how exorbitant those contracts are.

There's been a lot of recent talks about expanding the 16-game NFL regular season. There are several reasons to do this, but mostly, it boils down to more television revenue for the league and more excitement for the fans. There are some drawbacks as well, such as injury risks...
Breakthrough Teams for 2008
Every year, about six teams qualify for the playoffs that didn't qualify the previous year. Some of them are teams that were on the cusp; others are teams that come seemingly out of nowhere (see: the NFC South). I wanted to focus on the teams that could come out of nowhere for...

The Eagles have had an aggressive offseason, locking up a marquee free agent in CB Asante Samuel and several role players such as DE Chris Clemons and LB Rocky Boiman. They also added playmakers in the draft, most notably WR DeSean Jackson. Their losses this season were mostly aging...
