Patriots Keys to Victory: Week 13 vs. Jets

By Andrew Kipp ⋅ December 6, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

The New England Patriots have had a lot of big games this season, but none of those come close in importance to their upcoming Week 13 matchup with the division rival New York Jets. The Jets and Patriots enter this week’s showdown with records of 9-2, which means the winner of this game will have [...]

Bill is a Pill, Rex’s in Effect

By Dave D ⋅ December 6, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Exhibit A is short, truculent, crabby and comports himself with the miffed, detached air of someone running late for a colonoscopy. Exhibit B is large, boisterous, expressive, sometimes downright jolly, possessing an everyman wit you could easily see coming from a barber or short-order cook. They are as different and as similar as the Grinch [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 12

By John ⋅ November 30, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Things are getting really interesting. The four best teams in the AFC will all face each other next week, A team may win the NFC West with a losing record, something no division has ever experienced before. And defenses are starting to figure out Michael Vick a little bit. And the Colts and Packers are [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 11

By John ⋅ November 23, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

We’re six weeks away from knowing who will face who in January, and Chilly won’t be around to see it. Houston fell yet again, and the Jets won late again, the Falcons came up big in St Louis, and the Panthers are the new Rams, thanks to Buffalo’s massive comeback over Cincy. Thanks to New [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 10

By John ⋅ November 16, 2010 ⋅ One comment

With less than two months to go now, the landscape has changed pretty nicely. The Patriots went from contenders to jokes, to contenders again with a defeat of Pittsburgh. Oakland is now in the playoff situation again, somehow. The Cowboys’ coaching change helped them, and hurt the Giants. The Falcons and Jets are back in [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 9

By John ⋅ November 9, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Things have suddenly gotten interesting. The Patriots are no longer the best team around, and the Rams are doing something right. And remember the Saints’ poor start? They’re now half a game out of the best record in the league. Ditto for the packers, and just one game back for the Colts. And three games [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 8

By John ⋅ November 2, 2010 ⋅ One comment

How about this for an ultimate rematch three years in the making. We all remember the day the undefeated season died, when the Giants beat the Patriots in a game in which New England could have tried harder. But they’re the best team in the league again this year, even without Randy Moss. It remains [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 7

By John ⋅ October 26, 2010 ⋅ One comment

Something’s going on in the NFL. The AFC West is completely flopped from last season, New Orleans lost at home to Cleveland, and the Cowboys and Vikings are still not too good, and Green Bay is borderline. At least we still have one winless team in Buffalo to root for to fail. The Colts are [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 6

By John ⋅ October 19, 2010 ⋅ One comment

The Cowboys may not be in a good position to play in their home stadium in February, but the two Jersey teams are on track to face off at that time and place. The Chiefs are still holding on, and the Patriots, despite technically being the second-best team in football, are relegated to the Wild [...]

Vikings’ Childress the Essence of Idiocy on MNF, Jets’ Ryan a Close Second

By Andrew Kipp ⋅ October 12, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

I started this Tuesday the way I start all Tuesdays here in Istanbul, with a pot of coffee and an archived Monday Night Football game via NFL Game Pass. This week’s matchup featured the Minnesota Vikings at the New York Jets, a much-anticipated showdown between teams that both fell one game shy of the Super [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 5

By John ⋅ October 12, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

As quickly as Week 5, no more unbeaten teams are left. Though there are three winless teams, and surprisingly, none of them are the Lions or Rams. The Chiefs defense looked pretty good, but after losing several gambles and not scoring a touchdown against the Colts, how long can the Chiefs keep it up? And [...]

Ty Law Talks About a Possible Return, Revis

By Justin Power ⋅ October 7, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

With 15 seasons of Hall-of-Fame caliber play behind him, former Patriots cornerback Ty Law thinks he might have at least one more season in front of him. While last year’s cup of coffee with the Denver Broncos may have smacked with finality, it was Law’s offseason workouts mentoring Jets cornerback Darelle Revis that continue to [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 4

By John ⋅ October 5, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Who could have ever predicted that the Chiefs would be the last unbeaten team left? Or that the Colts wouldn’t be in the picture at all? Or even in 3rd place in their division for that matter? The Rams have an actual winning streak in place, too. The NFL has been turned upside down for [...]

Who is Danny Woodhead?

By Andrew Kipp ⋅ September 30, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

When the Patriots traded veteran running back Laurence Maroney following their Week 1 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals, they opened up a very big roster spot. Last week, just before their loss to the New York Jets, they filled that big roster spot, with a very little man. The release of Maroney left many wondering [...]

Three Second-Half Turnovers Doom Patriots in New Meadowlands

By Matt Goisman ⋅ September 19, 2010 ⋅ One comment

Tom Brady never saw it coming. And by the time he picked himself up off the turf, the New York Jets had the ball and the victory. Down 14 in the fourth quarter, Jason Taylor’s blindside strip-sack of Brady ended the New England Patriots’ final attempt to get back in the game and sealed the [...]
