Quarterback Quandry

Everyone loves the Quarterback. While football is most definitely a team game, the quarterback position is very important for success. A great quarterback can cover a multitude of sins at other positions. So it is understandable that NFL teams and fans obsess about who they have behind center. In this draft there are three quarterback that…

The Last Mock Draft of 2014

This mock draft is coming to you very late. I planned on having it ready last week honestly, however the extra time kept making me second guess myself. These are my thoughts, what I would do. I know there are picks here that most everyone says are not going to happen. Well…I don’t care, this…

We Know Nothing

(Originally posted on SportsRants.com) In the Richie Incognito/ Jonathan Martin story we know so very little. On the surface the story is simple. One man bullied another, one man threatened another. Simple, neat, nothing is ever so simple. It takes me back to my youth, to my days of watching Hogan’s Heroes. Sitting back I…

Swimming with the Fishes

  Jeff Ireland is on the clock. The Miami Dolphins general manager enters this offseason with a target on his back. It is sink or swim time for Ireland. Either make the moves to give Miami a winning season or he is sunk, he is likely negotiating for his career. It all started Tuesday at…

Keep It Competitive

Thinking back to the Super Bowl, one of the things I took away from it was the officiating. It was great. Jim Harbaugh might not agree, he may still be arguing that last call. I found it refreshing. The officials actually let the two teams play. That is all we really want, let the players…

Buyer Beware.

The Super Bowl signals the end of the NFL season. The end of months of hard work and struggle before crowning a champion in one final game: One winner, thirty-one losers. Let us be honest: the season never ends. Officially free agency begins the offseason on March 9th.  However teams already are making moves and…
