Matt Schaub: The Texas Gunslinger

Monday, October 19th, 2009

The Houston Texans have been a team that is very inconsistent or maybe just consistently inconsistent.  One week they look like world beaters, the next they are flat.  To go to the next level they need consistent play from their quarterback and that’s Matt Schaub.  They have the playmakers on ...

Tom Brady: “We went out there and played obviously our best game of the year”

Monday, October 19th, 2009

Scott Skiles Says First Round Pick Brandon Jennings is Making Great Progress

Monday, October 19th, 2009

  After another disappointing season in Milwaukee and a below .500 record, the Bucks made some significant changes in the offseason.  However, I’m not so sure it makes them better in the here-and-now.  Even though, they are getting Michael Redd and Andrew Bogut back from injury, the Bucks look to once ...

Junior Seau: “I’m Not Going to Have A Chance to Win a Ring By Sitting on the Couch in San Diego and Surfing”

Monday, October 19th, 2009

  It was about a month ago when I wrote a post about Junior Seau saying that he would return to New England if they needed him to.  He said that he wasn’t waiting for a phone call, but if the team needed him, he would put down the surfboard and ...

Friday, October 16th, 2009

We've never posted a top ten list here at SRI. Mostly because I'm not funny enough to write one. But I'm happy to post someone else's funny top 10 list. This one was written by Jeff Aaron, better known as the "Fish" of KRKO outside Seattle. Punishment for Oakland Raiders Coach ...

Matt Ryan: “I think I am making better decisions this year than I was last.”

Friday, October 16th, 2009

Two years removed from the Michael Vick situation, the Atlanta Falcons are now sitting in a better position than they were before #7 decided to do what he did.  This was a blessing in disguise for the Falcons.  Speaking as an Atlanta fan, we got rid of that coward in Bobby Petrino, replaced Rich ...

Ricky Williams: “I Will Be A Doctor in 10 Years.”

Friday, October 16th, 2009

Ricky Willams is one the most interesting guys in the NFL.  After winning the Heisman Trophy at the University of Texas, he was drafted 5th overall to the New Orleans Saints where he played for 3 seasons.  He was then traded to the Miami Dolphins in 2002 where he would lead ...

Jimmy Clausen: “It came down to Notre Dame and ‘SC at the end. I felt comfortable with both schools, but Coach Weiss is probably the biggest reason I came to Notre Dame…”

There's two marquee matchups on tap this weekend in college football. One is the Red River Rivalry between Oklahoma and Texas. The other is #25 ranked Notre Dame hosting #6 ranked USC. All eyes will be on the two quarterbacks - Jimmy Clausen of ND and Matt Barkley of 'SC. ...

Jared Allen Puts the Vikings Start in Perspective

Friday, October 16th, 2009

We can never get enough of Jared Allen here on SRI!  Before Jared Allen arrived in Minnesota, the Vikings had some issues putting pressure on the quarterback.  They had one of the best defenses in the NFL at stopping the run, but they still needed that dominant pass-rusher.  Jared Allen ...

Marvin Lewis: “We Are One Play from Being Undefeated and Four Plays from Being Defeated.”

Friday, October 16th, 2009

  The Cincinnati Bengals lost in week 1 of the season to the Denver Broncos on a fluke tip pass play at the end of the game.  It looked like the same old Bengals giving up a game and starting the season where they left off in 2008.  They were 4-11-1 ...
