    Week 3 Predictions: NFC North

    Sunday: Minnesota Vikings @ New Orleans Saints   What to Expect:  The Minnesota Vikings were absolutely embarrassed this past Sunday. The Patriots are a good team (great, if they weren't so damn sloppy right now), but Minnesota isn't 23 points worse. The Vikings started off strong, then fell...

    Upset Specialists: Week 3

    Here's a game I've had success with at my other forum. Posters make upset picks for each week, with an interesting scoring system. I'll lay out the rules below. Note: Upsets determined by general consensus, not Vegas lines. If any of us poses an upset pick that enough posters feel isn't an...

    Week 2 Predictions: AFC East

    Note: For Patriots and Jets predictions, see Week 2 Predictions: NFC North thread. Sunday: Miami Dolphins @ Buffalo Bills   What to Expect: Miami, fresh of an impressive win against division juggernaut New England, travels to Buffalo to see if their opening week second half performance is a...

    Week 2 Predictions: NFC East

    Sunday: Arizona Cardinals @ New York Giants   What to Expect: The Giants were manhandled on national television by one of the most inconsistent franchises in recent history. The Lions have become an almost guaranteed fast start, only to sputter and fishtail to season's end. Because of that, it...

    Week 2 Predictions: NFC North

    Sunday: New England Patriots @ Minnesota Vikings   What to Expect: When Tom Brady last ran into a Mike Zimmer defense, he was held to 6 points in a 13-6 Bengals victory with Mike Zimmer calling defensive plays for Cincinnati. Keep in mind that the Cincinnati defense in question was much more...

    Week 1 Predictions: NFC South

    Sunday: New Orleans Saints @ Atlanta Falcons   What to Expect: The Saints roll into Atlanta with an extremely dangerous offense. Drew Brees has most of his usual plethora of weapons, highlighted by explosive rookie Brandin Cooks, who appears to be what the Rams thought (if I were them, I would...

    Week 1 Predictions: AFC North

    Sunday: Cincinnati Bengals @ Baltimore Ravens   What to Expect: The Ravens come into the 2014 NFL season with a rebuilt offense and an actual, real offensive coordinator in Gary Kubiak instead of the inept and always-looking-utterly-confused Jim Caldwell, who was hilariously hired as head coach...

    Week 1 Predictions: NFC East

    Sunday: Washington Redskins @ Houston Texans   What to Expect: The Redskins travel to Reliant Stadium to face a pair of fierce pass rushers in JJ Watt and Jadeveon Clowney, two men who will wreak havoc on RG3's opening week and allow Houston's questionable secondary to excel to some degree...

    Week 1 Predictions: NFC North

    At last, game week is upon us. In an effort to up the discussion going into the regular season, I thought I'd give these threads a trial run in two divisions. I'll outline each game (based on what I know about each team) and give a prediction.   TNF: Green Bay Packers @ Seattle Seahawks   What...

    Why are the Rams sold on Bradford?

    To me, this is the biggest question surrounding a very good draft by the St. Louis Rams. I feel like this team gets better every year, but they seemingly love a QB that is not only injury prone but has never proven to be all that good in the first place.   Is there something I'm not seeing or...

    Offseason Letters to Each Houston Player

    The Starters:   To Dwight Howard: You are an exceptional player who has made this team significantly better in a very short period of time. You've re-established yourself as clearly the best center in the NBA. All that aside, you still have some areas where you can drastically improve. First of...

    Of All the Silly, Ridiculous Things

    THIS has to top them all:       So apparently being the sole reason that the Pacers have even been in title contention talks these past three years is on his way out if this team underachieves once, just once, in his tenure.   You've got to be kidding me. Not only has Vogul shown tremendous...

    Who Climbs, Who Falls, in the Western Conference?

    The Western Conference has it's top 5 teams pretty well squared up in Oklahoma City, San Antonio, Houston, Los Angeles Clippers, and Portland. After that, it's a hodgepodge mashup of the likes of Dallas, Golden State, Phoenix, Memphis, and even Minnesota could make some noise, if recent wins...

    The Most Misunderstood Rules In Basketball (Stop Yelling at the Officials; You're Wrong)

        I understand that a lot of you may see this as ironic, coming from me. With that in mind, I'd like to mention that when I am at games, in person (mostly HS basketball, mind you--my brother is 16), I'm honestly one of the most quiet people in the stands. Officiating is much much better at the...

    Left Handed Starters

    NBA.com has a little tribute to 6 left handed plays starting a game between Memphis and Detroit today. Due to most people not knowing that he's left handed, Houston has three left handed starters along with Memphis and Detroit in Harden, Jones, and Dwight.    Anybody know the record for left...

    FCS Playoff Thread

    Towson and Eastern Washington are currently playing. Towson's starting RB Terrence West has the single season rushing yardage record in FCS. Eastern Washington starting QB Vernon Adams has thrown for 53 TD passes this season, which I also believe is a FCS record, and that isn't where the stat...

    Am I the Only Person Who Didn't Know This Rule?

    OK. So I've been having a discussion on another site about this topic right now. A basic rule that has always (somehow) escaped my knowledge is that the ball advances whether or not it is clearly over the OoB plane, as long as the player hasn't touched down OoB. For instance, if a receiver needs...

    What happened to the emphasis on calling legitimate offensive fouls?

    I'm not saying that this happens against just Houston, or anything. I've seen Houston do it. Harden got fined for it. In every NBA game I've seen this year, the officiating has returned to calling offensive fouls at the slightest contact that results in a defensive player hitting the deck. Are...

    This is Why Your Team Lost

    Rudy Gay: 6-23 FGs, 0-3 3s, 2-4 FTs, 2 TOs   Josh Smith 7-23 FGs, 3-11 3s ,11 3 point attempts, 5 TOs

    Bills Working Out Flynn

          I'm going to laugh at the laundry list of QBs they call this coming week.  Wait for it:
