2008 NFL Week 13 Review

Titans 47, Lions 10 I can’t remember the last time I missed even a portion of an NFL game. I cover the league for a living, so it’s my job to watch all the NFL games. Not that I’m complaining or anything; running this site is a blast. However, I’ll admit that I missed some…

2008 NFL Week 12 Review

Steelers 27, Bengals 10 It’s the little things. Marvin Lewis told Cris Collinsworth that the little things are preventing his team from succeeding. That was extremely apparent on Thursday night, as the Bengals seemed to do everything in their power to thwart their own chances of pulling the upset as massive underdogs. Here are some…

My final preseason 2010 NFL Power Rankings. I’ll be using these as the order for next week’s update of my 2011 NFL Mock Draft. I’ve gone from WORST to FIRST, so if you don’t see reverse numbering (via Javascript), don’t worry; the Rams, Chiefs and Bills aren’t my top teams. Also included in this are…

2008 NFL Week 7 Review

Bills 23, Chargers 14 If I were a fancy-shmancy sportswriter working for a dying newspaper, I’d start this write-up with something like, “The power may have been out at Ralph Wilson Stadium, but that didn’t stop Trent Edwards from lighting up the scoreboard.” Man, that’s good stuff. Edwards was 25-of-30 for 261 yards and a…

2008 NFL Week 4 Review

Browns 20, Bengals 12 It’s a shame Carson Palmer didn’t play in this game. And not because Ryan Fitzpatrick was horrendous, and not because Cincinnati could have dodged an 0-4 start. If Derek Anderson would have defeated Palmer, that would have meant that an Oregon State alumnus would have knocked off a USC product as…

2008 NFL Week 17 Review

Steelers 31, Browns 0 Bravo, Mike Tomlin. Unlike the Buccaneers, Colts and Jaguars last year, the Steelers won’t be flat in the postseason. All the starters played the majority of the contest. Steelers fans had a collective heart attack when Ben Roethlisberger was carried off the field in a stretcher, but it turns out that…

2008 NFL Week 11 Review

Jets 34, Patriots 31 I was expecting it in the first quarter. When it didn’t happen, I thought, “OK, if this gets tight in the second half, it’ll come.” It didn’t. But when the game went into overtime, I would have bet the farm that it would come to fruition in the extra session. To…
