    These poor fans have no idea

    Good point. Most of Rolle's great plays were in the nickle pkg. where he did excel. Most of Rolle's poor play was in standard sets or in blitz pkg.'s where he had to cover in space. You can live w/ a CB that is great cover guy but can't tackle (Dieon), but safety's have to be able to tackle...

    Boldin traded to Ravens

    Although I would have liked to have gotten more for him, I'm glad this is done. The reality is that we probably couldn't get more than we did. When things were hot & heavy last off season w/ Boldin, we didn't get any meaningful offers. Everyone in the league knew Boldin was on the block this...

    For a guy that was always considered classy

    I'm not sure I've ever understood the whole Manning being classy deal, other than the fact he is a media darling & does pretty good commercials. This isn't he first time he's thrown teammates under the bus. This isn't the first time he's choked in the playoffs either. In fact, as good as he is...

    Why we win saturday....

    The biggest issue I see w/ the Saints is MOMENTUM! They have none. They're coming off of a 3 game losing streak, that could have easily been a 5 game losing streak, & they will have had 2 weeks of inactivity in game situations. When it comes to the playoffs, perhaps the most important thing is...

    Game Thoughts: Cardinals 51 Packers 45

    Great read Mitch. I'm not sure I've seen enough here about what a heluva job the o-line did in their protection schemes. The running game was excellent overall. The receivers were stupendous. And Warner was, well, Warner. Is there a better clutch performer in football? As far as Rackers is...

    ESPN power rankings...

    IIRC, power rankings are a snap shot of who these guys feel are the top teams at that moment. With that being said, the Cards should be ranked ahead of the Vikings, not just b/c of the win, but also due to how they've been playing recently, lack of key injuries, & how they seem to be clicking at...

    Singletary says 49ers will rock against the Cards!!

    Very good point. I think the old school type of training camp rears it's ugly head about now as injuries tend to mount. Between Whis' style & Lott's conditioning, we have seen very few of the crucial injuries we used to see here & continue to see w/ other teams.

    The Difference on Offense?

    Something many of us have been calling for all season. Better scheme for blocking! Largely due to Bridges starting at left tackle & concerns about Kurt, the Cards held in the t.e.'s & rb's at least for chips far more than any other game I can remember. Warner doesn't need a hundred receivers in...

    An example of Warner's football wisdom

    It does get him in trouble from time to time. However, he makes FAR more plays this way. It's a high risk high reward deal. The rewards far outweigh the risks. We went to the SB last year b/c of Warner's brand of football. I'll give up the strip, sack, fumble occassionally in order to have all...

    3x 1000 yards watch

    Actually, you know why. I'm sure they had Matt in one read, check to the flat mode. As customary, Steve was probably 2nd or 3rd options when he was open. No offense to Matt, as he was in a difficult situation coming off the bench, but Kurt would have continued his field day with many darts...

    Have the Patriots found another way to cheat?

    Sun Nov 22, 2009 6:23 pm EST Fire alarm at hotel gives unwanted wake-up call to New York Jets By Chris Chase In the first half of a big divisional game against the New England Patriots, the New York Jets came out sluggish, getting outscored by 17 points and converting just two first downs over...

    The Titans are no joke

    If the refs allow the Titans o-line to hold like they did all game vs. the Texans tonight, we're in for a tough game. Their center Mahwe is a particularily dirty player.

    Looking Ahead: The next 6 games

    Historically speaking, Favre is due for a couple of horrendous showings, in fact over due, especially late in the season. The Vikings are a very good team, but they are very beatable, especially if Favre starts getting erratic again.

    An example of Warner's football wisdom

    On Boldin's catch & run for 38 yards to the 1 yard line. It was a hot read for Boldin. His cover blitzed. Boldin was open as soon as he crossed the LOS, but instead of hitting Boldin then, Warner waited till the last possible second to deliver the ball, which allowed Boldin to get further down...
