Some Clarification is in Order: The Preseason
We just finished an impressive preseason, finishing with a decent record. We've got a lot to be happy about and some areas of concern as well. But as this preseason was going on, I was wondering what records in the preseason tell about the team in the regular season, and what coaches look to learn...
Comeback Kids in Seattle
I find it a lot easier to tell myself that preseason games don't mean anything when the game in question is a loss rather than a win. So, despite how much fun it was to see the Minnesota Vikings beat the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday night, I have been repeating, mantra-like, that it doesn't mean...
Poll of the Day: How many preseason games?
The Hall Of Fame Game will not be played this year, leaving both the Chicago Bears and the St. Louis Rams with the usual four preseason games. Today's poll has nothing to do with the NFL losing that game because of the &*%# Lockout. Today we want to know; How many preseason games do you...
Post-Game Open Thread: Dallas v. Houston
Was that as good for you as it was for me? Yeah, I thought so. The Texans won the most important pre-season game in franchise history a meaningless preseason game, and the Governor's Cup, against the Dallas Cowboys tonight. Houston won 23-7 in front of a packed and wild Mike Kerns Reliant Stadium....
Bill Belichick Loves Him Some Ochocinco
Obviously, New England Patriots coach Bill Belichick has a soft spot for wide receivers who possess a little bit of the selfish reputation. See Moss, Randy and now, Cincinnati's favorite receiver, Chad Ochocinco. During the Bengals/Patriots game last week, Belichick playfully razzed Ocho about...
Redskins QBs to face LaRon Landry's Older Brother, Dawan Landry
I was perusing the Raven's weekly release guide to tonight's game and came across a bunch of interesting tidbits, including a brief Q&A with LaRon Landry's brother, Dawan (a 6'0, 210 pound strong safety for Baltimore, four years out of Georgia Tech): Your younger brother, LaRon, is a starting...
Nine Sundays and Counting
With the NFL news being so slow this time of year, I figured I'd update a few things for those who are counting down the days until NFL season starts. - 2.5 days left for all Franchise players (Antonio Bryant) to sign long-term deals. After July 15th, it's just a one year deal - 20 days until...
Bengals "Ranked" 28th In Preseason Rankings
Ah, the offseason. It's a place where preseason ranking lists like Peter King's latest are actually worth something -- and by "worth something," I mean, "gives us something to talk about while we wait for preseason." Like the description implies, lists like these are good for one thing: ...
Strange new world: Jon Jansen no longer starting for Washington Redskins
I was something like 16 years old when Jon Jansen was drafted and subsequently immediately thrust into the starting lineup of Your Washington Redskins. Over 1/3rd of my life has proceeded with at least the certainty, that barring injury, Jansen would remain starting at tackle. Even considering...
Official Chiefs v. Cards Game Thread
via media.kansascity.com Today, the undefeated Red & Gold (1-0 in preseason play) take on the Arizona Cardinals (0-1). Here I was, hoping we'd get a showdown between two QBs from the 2006 Draft, Brodie Croyle and Matt Leinart. However, there's a nasty rumor out there that Leinart is...
