    Yes, everyone is focused on the Super Bowl. But before we stuff our faces, focus on the commercials and watch the Big Game on Sunday, there’s plenty of good Men’s Basketball Saturday! Check out the schedule here !  Plenty of great games…so which ones are you most interested in watching?  Do you predict any upsets?  Who do [...]

    17. Cincinnati Bengals (via Oakland)- RB Trent Richardson, Alabama: The Bengals will be absolutely thrilled if they don’t have to trade up for this draft’s top RB. Cincy needs a playmaker in their backfield to help take the pressure off Dalton, and Richardson is just the answer. 18. San Diego Chargers- WR Michael Floyd, Notre Dame: The [...]

    @Andrew- What is the evidence to support that they won’t trade up for that one player? If the Browns don’t workout this season then Heckart and company could be looking for jobs.While I agree the Browns are heading in the right direction, I think there will be pressure to get a QB. And Holmgren has [...]

    While not landing Prince Fielder stung a bit for the Nationals, their move yesterday to sign SP Edwin Jackson did help take some of that away. Now Jackson’s impact can’t replace a guy like Fielder, either on the field or at the box office, but the move has such genius to it, that you can’t [...]

    Boy the NFL has to be pissed that it is Super Bowl week and all anyone wants to talk about is the Peyton situation (not that i don’t think its valid). And it is even compounded due to the fact that his little brother is on one side, facing off against his biggest rival.

    The good news is RGIII won’t last till 6, the bad news the Skins might try to trade up for him.

    I really can’t think of an iconic figure basically being forced to leave like this. You know when Emmitt Smith left Dallas, I think everyone could see that he was done, and Favre forced his way out of GB with all his retirements.

    @Bret- I have the Steelers moving back because I really think they need to. Their cap situation is dire this season, meaning they will have to get rid of a bunch of players just to get under the cap, and they really won’t be able to sign any replacements. Right now I have them penciled [...]

    @Stephan- I don’t disagree with you about the risks, but the Browns are very likely to trade up for RGIII if they don’t land Flynn. Maybe they can get him for less (say not include that pick in 2013) but its still going to cost quite a bit. The fact that the Falcons moved up [...]

  • A win on Sunday would mean a TON for both Quarterbacks.   For Tom Brady, he would join the very small, elite QB Club of 4 Super Bowl wins.  He already has a place in Canton, but does this elevate talk of him being the greatest QB? For Eli Manning, would a 2nd Super Bowl [...]

    @Stephan- I know it seems like a high price, but with so many teams interested in RGIII it could be a very high price. Look teams overpay all the time for what they consider premier talent (ex. the Falcons last year with Julio Jones), it might sound crazy but it happens. Look how much the [...]
