NFL ’12 Cherry Picks Wk-7
Posted on 18 Oct 2012 by Steven Keys.
Welcome to the Surge A pendulum swinging back n’ forth. One team starts out like gang-busters, jumping to a huge, seemingly insurmountable lead, then, just when you’re about to stick a fork in ‘em the other guys start surging back, take the lead and there’s still half a‘ quarter left on the clock! Amazing…or maybe not. What happened in last Monday night’s Broncos / Chargers game w...

NFL Cherry Picks WK-3
Posted on 20 Sep 2012 by Steven Keys.
False starts. That’s been the common thread so far running through analysis of NFL 2012. Green Bay was suppose to be in trouble after their WK1 lose to the 49ers while da’ Bears were finally a burgeoning power. “Maybe no” to both, as “Furio Giunta” would say (The Sopranos). The Patriots were suppose to be unbeatable, then the mighty Cardinals flew into town. Peyton was suppose to be...

Calm Before Storm Tebow
Posted on 1 Jul 2012 by Steven Keys.
Take a deep breath. Hold it in. Breath out. Again. Now close your eyes. Drink in the calm, the serenity. Imagine birds singing, squirrels frolicking, puffy white clouds drifting by on blue sky…wait a second. Wake up! There’s the neighbor’s dog, doing-his-thing on your lawn. Landlord phoned, says he can’t fix the A/C ‘til next week. And today your boss put up the new schedule: you’re...

Tebow’s Talisman: Faith in Thyself
Posted on 8 Dec 2011 by Steven Keys.
Tebowmania hit fever pitch this week. The charmed play of the Denver Broncos’ quarterback has created a national buzz rivaling that which resonated in Tiger Woods and Brett Favre’s breakout year of ‘97. So popular is Tebow (and weak the field of GOP Presidential candidates) that Republican leaders would not have hesitated in offering the nomination to the traditional Tim under different c...

Falcons’ 2nd Half Offense Comes to Life, Secure Win
Posted on 17 Oct 2011 by Josh Brown.
This had been the story for at least two of the Falcons' losses and at least one of their wins: The Falcons score some points in the first half, and then score little to none in the second half. Today however, that changed. Thankfully. The Carolina Panthers and their prized rookie came into town looking for their 2nd win of the season. And they were poised to win. But good teams beat who they a...

Slacking Falcons Play Panthers This Weekend
Posted on 13 Oct 2011 by Josh Brown.
We all figured the Panthers wouldn't have a good record by the time Week Six came. I don't think we would guess that the Falcons would be only one win above them at the same time. The Falcons are playing uninspired football, after being the NFC's best team last year. They are 2-3, and two of those games they would have won if they had some kind of offense. The cause of the problem is not clear....

Dalton Improves in Second Game
Posted on 22 Aug 2011 by Derrick Blyberg.
The Bengals suffered their second preseason loss in blowout fashion Sunday night, losing 27-7 to the New York Jets. An ugly first quarter from QB Andy Dalton and company led to a quick 10-0 Jets lead headlined by a 16 yard TD pass from Mark Sanchez to Santonio Holmes. Dalton bounced back in the second quarter to lead the Bengal offense to their first TD of the preseason, but the stingy ...

Big Blue plays their first preseason game this Saturday against number one draft pick Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers. The team has struggled with the entire situation with their Pro Bowl defensive end Osi Umenyiora, who the Giants have desperately tried to tra...

Schedule, Draft and TWIBN
Posted on 25 May 2011 by Norm Duhamel.
I apologize for my lack of blogs lately, I know my die hard fans deserve more than 1 blog per month. I'll try and maintain one a week. The Bills 2011 schedule is out and it looks like it won't get any easier for the Bills this year. Their opponent's 2010 cumulative record is 137-119-0, making it the second hardest in the league. You would think finishing 4-12 in 2010 that your following sched...

Cam Newton: Draft Day Fool’s Gold
Posted on 28 Apr 2011 by Steven Keys.
He’s the latest crest in a new wave of run-first college quarterbacks, following in the fleet footsteps of campus legends Vince Young (Texas) and Tim Tebow (Florida). Like the affable Tim, Auburn’s Cam Newton is perfectly packaged for sport celebrity. Sizable and speedy, the elusive Camster kept his pearly-whites in perfect form by often avoiding the punishing tackles of many a hapless coll...
