What Happened to the 2009 Giants?

It’s very easy for me to vent about the horrid performance by the G-Men Sunday. There’s a lot of anger, a lot of frustration. And there are a lot of questions. Here are some Thoughts, Giants Panthers style (or, as I said in the title, what happened to the 2009 Giants?) -There is no excuse for the lack of effort on [read more...]

Cowboys Stuff the Raiders 24-7 in Thanksgiving Beating

The Dallas Cowboys entered their Thanksgiving Day game with a lot of eyes on their offense and how they would respond after being shutdown the last two games, and only being able to score 7 points in each game.

Rodgers’ 3 TD’s Help Packers Declaw Lions 34-12

Thanksgiving Day seems to treat the Detroit Lions like redheaded stepchildren. Perhaps the Lions playing on the last Thursday of every November is a punishment for being perennially one of the worst teams in the NFL; I honestly don’t know. Thursday pitted the Green Bay Packers as they visited Ford Field to take on the Lions; and truth be told, [read more...]

Lions Likely Without Stafford and Johnson for Thanksgiving Game

Two of the Detroit Lions’ young stars appear to not be in line to play Thursday against the Green Bay Packers, according to Tim Twentyman of the Detroit News.

Schedule in the AFC North Favors the Steelers the Rest of the Way

The Steelers schedule has worked out well. After laying two giant eggs in the 4th quarter against Cincinnati and Chicago (and almost one against San Diego), the Steelers cleaned up two below average teams in Detroit and Cleveland. Meanwhile, Baltimore dropped three in a row (!) to New England, the surprising Bengals, and Minnesota: all close games. This is the [read more...]

With Hasselbeck Hurt, Hawks Rushers Need to Step Up

If there ever was a time this season that the Seahawks needed their injury riddled offensive linemen to be healthy, now would be that time. In the Seahawks’ next six games, four of them are against teams that give up an average of four yards-per-carry or more, and with Seattle quarterback Matt Hasselbeck either playing in a tempered role or possibly [read more...]
