NFL coaches hold conference calls with media members for the opposing team ahead of each game. The calls are intended to help reporters provide thorough coverage of each game. With the Steelers playing the Jaguars Sunday, Jacksonville reporters had …
Oh, the trials and tribulations of being a punter or kicker in football. The positions stand as the Rodney Dangerfield of the sport: no respect, no respect at all. They are the butt of every joke on the gridiron. What do you call the guy that hangs …
Over the last few NFL seasons, players haven’t had to try terribly hard to be reprimanded for the way they tackle. Many defensive players insist the league has gone soft, and while that may be true to an extent it would be tough to argue that …
The NFL is a great place to go if you want to be fined. Roger Goodell hands out fines for just about everything. From big hits to punches thrown to criticizing the officials, you can receive a fine for doing or saying just about anything. You can …
Chad Ochocinco is addicted to Twitter. If you didn’t know that from reading some of his ridiculous tweets over the past couple years, you know it now. As you may have heard, Ochocinco has not tweeted from his personal Twitter account since …
Maybe the spirit of Al Davis was truly guiding the Oakland Raiders on Sunday. The Raiders beat the Texans in Houston 25-20 thanks to a Michael Huff interception on the final play of the game. Houston was at the five yard line and had an excellent …

After seeing the Giants lose to the lowly Seahawks on Sunday, it was evident that they could have used the services of Justin Tuck and Brandon Jacobs. Ahmad Bradshaw was unable to get anything significant going on the ground and Marshawn Lynch ran …

Detroit was fired up to host its first Monday Night Football game since 2001. The rowdy fans had Ford Field rocking early on, and they combined with Detroit’s intimidating defensive line to induce several false starts by the Bears offensive …

B.J. Raji wouldn’t have anything to say about the Falcons if they hadn’t started things first. Last week, we told you that Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was still motivated by Roddy White’s remark that the Falcons were a better …
Brady Quinn may have been surpassed by Tim Tebow on the quarterback depth chart for the Broncos, but he’s still excelling in another realm. Following his team’s home loss to the Chargers Sunday, Quinn took a red eye flight to be with …
