Tale of the Tape, Week 5
Week five is in the books and what did we learn? Offenses are starting to come together and look pretty good. Without much preseason practice time, a lot of these teams needed a few weeks to get “game ready” with their timing and chemistry. The other thing we saw was a crazy number of defense/special…

Hits and Misses, Week 5
Late night for the Sunday games on this week five rollercoaster. Not a great week for the picks. Only managed a 7-6 record so far with Kansas City the pick for tonight. That still leaves me with a respectable 47-30 record for the season. Usually I have this column to hold my predictions accountable, where…

Gridiron Preview, Week 5
We’ve reached the quarter point of the season and the first bye weeks are starting. What have we learned so far? Mostly that the experts have no idea who is going to be good and who is going to be bad until the games are actually played. Offense is weird this year. Yards seem to…

Is Davante Adams really leaving Las Vegas?
It sure looks like it.* We may not ever know the behind the scenes reasons for this breakup, but from the reports it sounds like this is something that has been building between Adams and Head Coach Antonio Pierce. Did this have anything to do with the “business decisions” comment from Pierce after the week…

Tale of the Tape, Week 4
The biggest trend I saw in this week’s games was not about the x’s and o’s of the game. It wasn’t a new strategy or formation. It was the absolute littering of the field with yellow flags. It was awful this week. Just ask Al Michaels who made his opinion well known on Thursday night…

Hits and Misses, Week 4
Week four is almost over. We have two games on tonight, and my picks are a respectable 9-5 so far this week and 38-24 over the season. We won’t discuss how my fantasy team is doing. That might be a season long miss. But before we get into the rest of the hits and misses,…

Gridiron Preview, Week 4
Week three came and went and there was no Tale of the Tape to mark the occasion. If you read the Hits and Misses column, I mentioned there wouldn’t be this week, but I didn’t say why. Well, I was out of town Monday/Tuesday and I knew I wasn’t going to be able to review…

Hits and Misses, Week 3
It’s a weird feeling watching the games live. You know I’m a fan of certain teams, but I’m also a fan of just plain old good football. If there’s two teams slugging it out and competing at a high level, I’m going to watch it no matter who the two teams are. And I like…

Gridiron Preview, Week 3
The NFL has come a long way in the past four or five years in terms of player safety. As fans we might complain about fouls being called that wouldn’t have been called ten or twenty years ago. We can be upset that the outcome of a game was decided because a sack was ruled…

Tale of the Tape, Week 2
Upset weekend? Super Bowl favorites Baltimore, San Francisco, and Detroit all lost. Playoff hopefuls Dallas, Philadelphia, Miami and the LA Rams all lost. Who had Minnesota, Seattle, New Orleans and Washington as your NFC division leaders? It’s still early, but there are definitely some trends starting to show up. We’ll get into a few of…
