I’ve noted many times that the NFL Combine is the most overrated event in sports when it comes to gauging talent, yet every year I get caught up in what a guy runs or what a guy jumps or what a guy throws (combine studs that probably went a bit high: JaMarcus Russell, Donte Stallworth, and jus...

From Deadspin, an anonymous fan chimed in that was at Peachtree Tavern the night Jamal Anderson got arrested, and claims he’s got a pretty good idea of what was going on. The story: I don’t know much else, but I was at The Tavern the night when Jamal got busted….I can tell you one ...

NFL Football at its best. NFL Football at its craziest. Let the record show that your humble author, the Squibster, predicted the final playoff victory games for the Cardinals and Steelers and the Super Bowl victory for the Steelers. Let the record show that those predictions were in hard print befo...

Just read the title. It kind of explains it for itself. I guess Michael Vick was close to shooting a commercial for PETA, one that says dog fighting is a no-no, but PETA — SURPRISINGLY — has resisted the temptation to air a man that’s killed hundreds of dogs with his bare hands, sl...

There’s a lot of stuff going on in the NFL this week. Coaches getting fired (Jon Gruden [should have been fired 2 years ago] was fired from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers) and coaches getting hired (Steve Spagnuolo, the defensive coordinator of the New York Giants). But the real question and the r...

So much for Arizona and San Diego being home underdogs. Both took care of business on Saturday, with Arizona jumping offsides on every snap (yes, I’m a Falcons fan), beating the Falcons 30-24, and the Chargers took care of business in San Diego, eliminating the Colts for the second consecutive...

[01h37] Spielende Arizona – Atlanta 30:24 Ein merkwürdiges Spiel, weil beide Mannschaften nicht ihre Stärken in der Offense ausspielen konnten und ausgerechnet Arizona ausgerechnet mit der Defense glänzen konnte. Der Lauf wurde lahm gelegt und das Passspiel der Falcons verfügte nicht über die...

Sure it made for good copy when Terence Moore of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution wrote back in April that "The Falcons just blew it" by drafting Matt Ryan. Did he think that wouldn't come back on him? Not likely, thanks to Real Clear Sports, which keeps track of such things in its annual Top 10 Err...

There’s one game left — and it’s essentially a playoff — between San Diego and Denver right now, with Denver up 6-3. The winner of that game will advance to the playoffs and play at home against the Colts next week. Here’s the rest of the playoff picture. -Baltimore Rav...
