So much time is spent talking about what a quarterback can do. Is he a pocket quarterback? Is he mobile? Can he throw the ball a country mile? All these are valid questions, however, the more important questions are what are his limitations? Even the best quarterbacks have limitations. Much has been made of Tua…
And Tom Brady is out…
Earlier this season when talking to a friend of mine(a Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan), I told him in no uncertain terms that Tom Brady would not be defending a Super Bowl championship this year. I was confident that the Bucs would not even make it to the Super Bowl again. No, I am not a…
Exorcising Demons
After starting this season 1-7, the Miami Dolphins are in the midst of an improbable playoff run. Many critics would point out the relative lack of talent of the teams that the Dolphins have faced. But as the line goes: ” You play who’s on your schedule.” But it’s exactly this schedule that they are…
Dolphins should avoid Watson
I started writing this piece a month ago before the Super Bowl. The Texans had just hired their new general manager, DeShaun Watson was clearly unhappy. He had not officially said that he wanted out but everyone could read the tea leaves. So of course just like every other off-season for seemingly the last two…
Robert Saleh is the new head coach of the New York Jets
Late Thursday night it was announced that Robert Saleh, former defensive coordinator for the San Francisco 49ers, would become the next head coach for the New York Jets. He replaces Adam Gase, with Gase it was never a question of if he would be fired but when. He went 9-23 over his two seasons. Saleh…
George Kittle signs 5 yr, $75M extension with 49ers
You hate to compare a current player to former stars. Especially to hall of famers or sure to be hall of famers. It is usually premature. But in this case I believe it is apt. George kittle is this generations Rob Gronkowski. Gronkowski in turn was his generations Kellen Winslow. All three are phenomenal athletes,…
NFL Draft: Miami Dolphins Day Two
Day one of the 2020 NFL Draft is in the books. It was different. It was a little odd. But with all the coaches, GM’s and sports personalities working from home it still was the NFL draft that we are used to. For the Miami Dolphins it was a busy night. With three picks on…
Miami Dolphins Draft: Will it take a trade to get their QB?
All year long. Everywhere you look. The smart money is on the Miami Dolphins picking a quarterback with their first pick in the 2020 NFL draft. Before the 2019 season started everyone had the Dolphins picking the quarterback this year. All year long the entire “tank” narrative was built around Miami putting them in a…
All the Jordon Love love
6 ft 4. 224 lbs. Good arm, nice release. Looking at Jordan Love you see everything you think you would want from a quarterback. He checks all the boxes. During the 2016 draft you could say much the same about Paxton Lynch, he was taken by the Denver Broncos. Just looking the part is not…
Kobe Bryant R.I.P.
While watching the Pro Bowl today they broke in to announce the death of Kobe Bryant. I am not here to rehash the tragedy. I just want to talk about the loss. We always think that we have more time. Whether it is an athlete or celebrity that we admire or a family member. We…
