Odell Beckham is proof that there is crying in football. The Vikings could make him cry again tomorrow night. Week four is the first bye week of the season. It is also the last week of Tom Brady’s suspension which has to make Patriots fans happy. Here are my picks for this week. Indianapolis Colts (1-2) vs. Jacksonville Jaguars (0-3): This is a must game for Jags coach Gus Bradley….
Trevor Siemien can do more than this for the Broncos as evident by his four touchdown performance yesterday. 1. The Redskins literally saved their season by beating the Giants. No team that has started a season 0-3 has ever made the playoffs. Washington still has hope. 2. So I guess Trevor Siemien is a starting quarterback in the NFL after all. I had him pegged as a handoff specialist. 3….
The Patriots opened up Week 3 with a convincing 27-0 win over the Houston Texans. Here is our preview of the rest of the week. Arizona Cardinals (1-1) at Buffalo Bills (0-2):Firing offensive coordinator Greg Roman is further proof that the Bills are a mess. To compound matters, they have to play a Cardinals team today that can score points and exploits match ups in the secondary. Needless to say,…
Several high profile injuries at the running back position mar Week 2 of the NFL season. 1.Sunday featured several high profile injuries. The running back position was hit the hardest with Arian Foster, Jonathan Stewart, Ameer Abdullah, Thomas Rawls, Danny Woodhead, Doug Martin and Adrian Peterson all suffering injuries. Its still too early to tell how severe the injuries were but it could be a long day on Monday for…
Week two is upon us and there are already some key games on the docket. Here are my thoughts on each game and a predicted winner. Cincinnati Bengals at Pittsburgh Steelers: We already know that is one of the fiercest rivalries in all of football. Lets get down to who wins it. I like Pittsburgh. I don’t think Cincy’s secondary can cover Antonio Brown no matter who they match on him….
1.The Cincinnati Bengals were depleted by free agency this off-season but somehow Marvin Lewis’ team found a way to win a tight game against the Jets. I still don’t think Lewis and his staff get enough credit for the job they do. Don’t count the Bengals out. 2. Carson Wentz had an impressive rookie debut. Wentz finished 22 of 37 for 278 yards and two touchdown passes. Sure it was…
The 2016 NFL season kicks off this weekend. Here’s a quick thought on each game on this week’s schedule. 1:00 pm Kickoffs Green Bay Packers At Jacksonville Jaguars: This will be a tougher game for the Packers than people think. It’ll be a nip and tuck affair well into the fourth quarter but I don’t see the Packers losing to the new and improved Jags. Green Bay will survive a scare…
The 2016 season kicks off this weekend. Here are some thoughts on each division in the AFC and who I think will come of the conference. AFC East 1. New England Patriots: You can go ahead and doubt the Patriots. I dare you! New England will be fine as long as OC Josh McDaniels calls plays that cater to Jimmy Garoppolo’s strengths. He’s not Tom Brady so asking him to…
The 2016 season kicks off tonight with the Panthers traveling to Denver to take on the Broncos in a Super Bowl 50 rematch. Here are some thoughts on each division in the NFC and who I think will come of the conference. NFC East 1. New York Giants: The Giants have a new coach in Ben McAdoo and they spent a lot of money on defense. There will be some growing…
Blink and you might have missed some of the big names that were released yesterday as NFL trimmed their rosters to 53 players. Here are the five biggest names cut. 1. Josh Sitton OG Green Bay Packers: Admittedly, even I was surprised that the Packers released the 30 year old Sitton. The three time Pro Bowler was a staple of the Packers offensive line the last few years. Despite that,…
