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…

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,…

The Arizona Cardinals awarded free safety Tyrann Matthieu with a contract extension yesterday, signing Matthieu to a five year, $62.5 million dollar contract.  Some will question whether or not Matthieu is worth that type of contract. He had character issues coming out of LSU and he’s a free safety. Both are valid points, but Matthieu has turned his life around and he’s one of the premier defensive playmakers in the…

The NFL announced yesterday that Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon is going to be reinstated for the 2016 season. Gordon will sit out the first four games but he will return for the Week five match up against the Patriots. It’s great news for a Browns organization that has had a tumultuous off-season. Getting Gordon back gives the Browns the one thing they are lacking right now. A proven…
