Jason Garrett needs to man up and start Tony Romo this week against the Eagles. It is the right move for the team. Cowboys coach Jason Garrett needs to do man up and start Tony Romo on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles. Starting Romo is the logical thing to do. This isn’t about soothing Romo’s ego or making him feel good about himself. It is about giving him game reps…
There five games on the docket today but we’ll be previewing the four big ones. Here goes! Georgia v. TCU -4, in the Liberty Bowl: The Liberty Bowl has traditionally been one of the better games of the bowl season through the years and this game should be no different. Both teams struggled on offense this season but defensively, they were stout. That is not a surprise considering both programs…
Victor Cruz said earlier this week that the Patriots don’t want to see the Giants in the Super Bowl again. Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz said earlier this week that the Patriots don’t want to see the Giants in the Super Bowl again. That is an awfully ambitious statement considering the Giants are a wild card team and have a longer road to the Super Bowl than the Patriots do. …
After going 0-3 yesterday with my picks, I need to bounce back today in a big way. Here’s hoping for the sweep. South Florida -10 v. South Carolina in the Birmingham Bowl: I’m taking the Bulls in this one. South Florida junior quarterback Quinton Flowers is one of the best dual threat quarterbacks in the country and I think he’ll run and throw all over a suspect Gamecocks defense. Virginia…
It’s another great day of bowl action with four games on the docket for today. Here’s our preview and picks. PITT v. Northwestern -4.5, in the Pinstripe Bowl: Northwestern started strong but faded down the stretch and really struggled defensively in the month of November. The Wildcats are well coached in all three phases but they will have a hard time matching up against a Pitt offense that can run and…
Coverage-Gate is nothing more than than a media creation. There is no story in Minnesota. The national media is once again proving that they are nothing more than a bunch of pot stirrers looking to generate a story out of nothing. The best example of this is what is going on right now with the Minnesota Vikings. The media has made a story out of two players who decided to…
The Buffalo Bills fired head coach Rex Ryan and his brother Rob today. Offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn was named the interim coach. The Buffalo Bills had to fire Rex Ryan. They had no choice given the direction the organization was heading in. Ryan’s act got old and Bills owner Terry Pegula had seen enough. At 7-8, the Bills failed to make the playoffs for the 17th straight season. The last…
Mike Leach and the Washington State Cougars have their sites on a Holiday Bowl trophy. Army at North Texas +10.5, in the Heart of Dallas Bowl: I like North Texas in this game as a heavy underdog. Army is not good enough to be favored by this many points. Sure, the Black Knights will run the football effectively but I don’t think they’ll score enough points to win by double digits….
Game Rewind: The Boston College offense started strong scoring 29 first half points as the Eagles held on to beat Maryland 36-30 in the Quick Lane Bowl. Here are three thoughts from the game. 1. For Whom the Bell Towles: Fifth year senior quarterback Patrick Towles played one of his better games of the season finishing 10/22 151 yards and two touchdown passes. Towles has put up better numbers this…
Storyline: The 6-6 Eagles will battle the Maryland Terapins in the Quick Lane Bowl in Detroit this afternoon. B.C won their last two games to qualify for this bowl game. Here are three keys for the Eagles in this game. 1. Patrick Towles Must Play Well: Sounds simple but Towles needs to play well today if the Eagles are going to have any chance of winning this game. Towles needs…
