Brown Bag it, Baby
1. New York Jets (5-1, –) Nothing drastic enough happened that would dethrone the New York Jets over their bye week. They’ll have a chance to prove they deserve it this Sunday against a Packers team that will only get stronger as it keeps …
Being accused of cheating is nothing new to the New England Patriots. Since 2007, when Eric Mangini sold the Pats out for filming opponents’ signals, they’ve had fingers pointed at them for everything from toying with opponents’ …
The media has proven itself to be exactly what we thought they were: results-oriented rather than process-oriented, not unlike the way most people are in life. While the top story of the week from the NFL weekend (aside from Tony Romo’s injury) …
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has signed Terrell Owens, Tank Johnson, and Pacman Jones when they were castoffs in the NFL. He traded up to draft Dez Bryant whom people felt had character issues. Even after Ryan Leaf stunk it up for the San Diego …
Roy Williams may have been a bust most of the time he’s been a Dallas Cowboy, but the one area he’s always had success is in making hyperbolic statements. There was this during the off-season, and there was his guarantee in 2006 that the …
The Dallas Cowboys were already vastly underachieving with their 1-4 record compared to most people’s preseason expectations for the club. Some wild thinkers had them becoming the first NFL team to play for the Super Bowl in their own stadium. …
Brett Favre has reportedly admitted to leaving voicemails on Jenn Sterger’s phone but denied ever having sent her inappropriate photos. As usual, the writers over at Saturday Night Live aren’t interested in whether or not Favre is …
Call it the Chucky Curse, the Oakland Raiders haven’t won more than five games in a season since 2002, the year they went to the Super Bowl and lost to former coach Jon Gruden. Since losing that game, the Raiders joined the Detroit Lions as one …
Jay Cutler seems to have one of those attitudes that gets under people’s skin. In order to be a successful NFL quarterback, you have to have a certain level of confidence. Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, and Tom Brady certainly possess that …
Jared Allen is such a character, hearing him introduce himself by saying he went to culinary school for college is not a surprise. Apparently the tradition has been going on since last year on NBC football but this was the first time I heard it. …
In a year full of surprises and a lack of truly dominant teams, one of the biggest shockers of week seven was the Cleveland Browns hammering the New Orleans Saints on the road 30-17. Nothing compares to Oakland’s butt-whopping in Denver, but …
Vikings quarterback Brett Favre met with an NFL investigator during the week to talk about his cyberstalking interactions with former Jets employee Jenn Sterger. Favre and his agent wisely avoided speaking with the media about the talk, but …
There was a great ESPN fantasy football commercial leading up to the NFL season featuring Chris Johnson. In the commercial, all kinds of service workers were treating CJ2K poorly because he had ostensibly let them down in their fantasy leagues. I …
Last Sunday, the Patriots overcame a 17-7 deficit in the second half and defeated the Ravens, 23-20, in overtime. This Sunday, New England nearly blew a 23-3 lead when they let the Chargers crawl within a field goal in the second half, only to lose …
Despite not playing exceptionally well, the Washington Redskins were able to pull off a 17-14 win over the Chicago Bears on Sunday. A lot of their success is owed to the inability of the Bears to protect quarterback Jay Cutler. What else is new? …
A back-and-forth game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Miami Dolphins resulted in Ben Roethlisberger improving his record to 2-0 on the year as a starter. There was no shortage of drama in the game, with a very strange ruling costing the Dolphins …
