Notes: Jake Delhomme Finally Done with Carolina; Finley Signed by Boston; Peppers, Taylor to Bears? Cromartie Now with Revis

Jake Delhomme, who began his career as an NFL starting quarterback by leading the Carolina Panthers to the Super Bowl, was released Thursday by the Carolina Panthers. Delhomme, 35, who quarterbacked the Panthers to a Super Bowl berth and two NFC Championship Games, fell off precipitously from his previous level of play in 2009.

NFL Week 13: Teams Strengths, Weaknesses Show They are What They Are

Chad Ochocinco dons a poncho and a sombrero after scoring against the Lions. Bronx cheers go out to the referees in the New York Giants-Dallas game, the Dallas secondary, Jeff Fisher for turning a 24-16 game into a 27-10 deficit, and the Washington Redskins organization for failing to do much of anything correctly. ——————————— Indianapolis (12-0) 27, Tennessee (5-7) 17. Though the [read more...]

NFL Week 11: Patriots Revenge, the Oakland Fly Trap Eats Again, and More…

Jay Cutler contemplates the latest way he found to lose a game for the Chicago Bears. Oakland (3-7) 20, Cincinnati (7-3) 17. Sunday showed the Bengals immaturity.

Hey folks, I’m busy today trying to get three stories together and get two out for Monday. Each requires a bit if research while one also requires an important phone call that might further substantiate some recent blockbuster news. So, instead of forcing a commentary that isn’t really formed, I’m going to make some game picks for some of Saturday’s [read more...]

NFL Week 6: Pats Hit 59; Saints Hang 40-Burger on Giants; Atlanta, Vikes Escape; Cards Deal; Reid Passes on Win, and the Rest of Sunday’s Games

Kansas City (1-5) 14, Washington 2-4) 6. Redskins head coach Jim Zorn yanked Jason Campbell and played backup Todd Collins in the second half of Washington’s game with Kansas City. And other than one long pass on a flea-flicker play and a long Clinton Portis run, the Washington Redskins looked just like they did when Campbell was in the game. [read more...]

NFL Week 3 – Nearing the End of the First Quarter: the Weak Are Beginning to Show Themselves

Detroit's Bryant Johnson snares a 21-yard touchdown pass against the Redskins' Carlos Rogers. -Detroit 19, Washington 14. I’m sure most Washington Redskins fans hope Sunday was Jim Zorn’s last game as the head coach of the Redskins. If I was Dan Snyder I would have spent the entire game wooing Bill Cowher to D.C. next season and the rest [read more...]

NFL Week 2: Finding Consistency Will Be the Chore for Most Teams This Season

-New York 33 (2-0), Dallas (1-1) 31.  Another important game, another brutal performance by Tony Romo. The New York Giants turned Romo’s three interceptions into 21 points. Dallas ran for 250 yards and still lost. And think they didn’t miss Terrell Owens much? Cowboys receivers caught only four passes for 49 yards. The Dallas defense wasn’t much better. They gave [read more...]
