Today:
Bengals @ Ravens
Why We'll be Watching:
Can the Bengals sink the Ravens to 0-3? The birds must suck at least once during the Flacco/Harbaugh tenure, and with a completely punchless offense that's leaning way too much on something called Crockett Gilmore, this may be the year.

With the re-breaking of Tony Romo's left clavicle, the Dallas Cowboys are in line for a rough stretch if they can't at least get mediocre QB play. The role of Dallas' QB is going to be obvious--don't turn the ball over. They appear to have a very good defense and simply don't need someone to...
Tonight:
Broncos @ Chiefs
Why We'll be Watching:
Travis Kelce--the young tight end continues to shine as a dominant force when healthy. He takes all kinds of pressure off of Alex Smith and Kansas City's running game and makes the Chiefs a much more dynamic offense.
Denver's Defense--what a...

It'll be interesting to see if he can throw against non-vanilla defenses. The Bills will cut Matt Cassel after signing him for way too much money, so it'll be EJ breathing down Taylor's neck if Taylor...
Go for it, folks!

Here's a game that's kind of fun to play. The premise is that I pose a question, and everybody has to give their answers without doing any research. It will result in some clearly wrong and funny answers at times--from all of us--so let's not bust balls too much.
Anyway, Question 1: Who is the...
As a few of you know, I'm a North Dakotan, and therefore a huge fan of the 4 time Defending FCS Champion North Dakota State Bison. Well, the Bison just agreed to a major recruiting advantage, and will be playing the Oregon Ducks in 2020. They'll likely get slaughtered, though not as bad as other...
The 2014 NFL draft also yielded three monster defensive players in Khalil Mack, Anthony Barr, and CJ Mosley. Mack was a consistent, steady hand in his rookie season. Barr was a phenom and spark for the Vikings defense prior to his injury. Mosley was a bit of a balance between the two.
I chose...
Last year's draft included a big 3 of quarterbacks, all of whom showed promise in their rookie seasons, though Bortles showed significantly less than the other two. Which of these QBs do you want today, and which do you want in the future?
As for me, I'll take Bridgewater today, mostly because...
So many teams are made or broken by the four week mark. Where will your team stand at that point? Break down your team's first four matchups, predict wins or losses, and give an assessment at the end of your piece.
Week 1, @ San Francisco 49ers
Nuts and Bolts:
Let's face it, the 49ers are...
Who is the best QB in the NFC West?
It is hard to overlook how much better Carson Palmer is as a passer than Russell Wilson, but Palmer is essentially a statue whereas Russ's improvisational abilities are what make him a very good, borderline top 10 QB. I'm going with Russ.
1. Drew Brees
Who is the second best QB in the NFC South?
My vote is going to Matt Ryan. He's great with the support that all QBs need. When guys like him and Drew Brees can't get it done with bad defenses and/or suspect running games and offensive lines, it just goes to show how much of a...
1. Aaron Rodgers
Who is the second best QB in the NFC North?
Despite how inefficient he is, it's hard to argue with what Matt Stafford is at his best, so he gets my vote.
