Jim Harbaugh Wins the NFC West in His First Season

Wednesday, December 7th, 2011

Is there any question who the NFL Coach of the Year is at this point? Perhaps you could argue Mike McCarthy for his, thus far, undefeated run in Green Bay. Or maybe Marvin Lewis for the job he's done so far in Cincinnati. But, to me, the shoe-in is John ...

Atlanta Falcons’ Tony Gonzalez: “We know we’re a playoff team.”

Wednesday, December 7th, 2011

To me, the Atlanta Falcons are one of the most frustrating teams in the NFL. They've got Matt Ryan, Roddy White, Michael Turner, Tony Gonzalez and Julio Jones on offense, just to name a few guys. That sounds like a dynamic offensive group that should have Atlanta playing at an ...

Mike Wallace and Antonio Brown Vary in Touchdown Celebrations, but not in Threat they Pose to Opposing Defenses

Wednesday, December 7th, 2011

Other teams are getting more headlines and publicity, but the Pittsburgh Steelers have been quietly going about their business this season to the tune of a 9-3 record. Once the early-season woes of the offensive line were corrected (to some degree), the Steelers have been able to play more consistently ...

Jerry Jones on Jason Garret Icing Cowboys Kicker: “I understand the process that he went through.”

Wednesday, December 7th, 2011

Let's just make one thing clear: Jason Garrett did not ice his own kicker at the end of regulation against the Arizona Cardinals last Sunday, which is contrary to popular belief throughout the NFL world.  Cowboys special teams coaches Joe DeCamillis and Chris Boniol were screaming for Garrett to call timeout ...

Mo Williams’s Bold Guarantee for Los Angeles Clippers in Lockout Shortened Season: “We will make the playoffs. You can qoute me on that. The youth will prevail.”

Wednesday, December 7th, 2011

The Los Angeles Clippers are one of the youngest teams in the NBA with a roster full of players who are all under the age of 30 years old. Mo Williams, who was traded to Los Angeles last season in exchange for Baron Davis, has in a short time made ...
