This Sunday, the New England Patriots and Atlanta Falcons will square off in Super Bowl LI, which is 51, not a Chinese last name. Assuming you’re like most Americans, I can guess two things: 1) You want the Patriots to lose more than you want either team to win, and 2) You’re going to be drinking heavily on Sunday – both because it’s the Super Bowl and because Donald Trump is burning our country to the ground. Drink up, kids. To get you ready for your Sunday debauchery for eitherRead More

After a crazy Divisional Playoff weekend that saw an insane Aaron Rodgers’ Hail Mary followed by a Cardinals’ walk-off overtime win, a 31-0 first half barely holding up, in Carolina typical Andy Reid clock (mis)management in a Chiefs’ loss, and the defense doing enough to earn another win in Denver, we’re left with four contenders for the Lombardi Trophy. For the first time since 2004, the final four teams remaining are the top four seeds in the playoffs – #2 seed New England travels to #1 seed Denver in theRead More

One-fourth of the NFL’s 32 teams remain heading into this Sunday’s Divisional Playoff Games. The eight squads still vying for the right to be forever known as Super Bowl 50 Champions all have their flaws; perhaps more than any year in recent memory, there doesn’t seem to be a clear favorite in neither the AFC nor NFC. Three of this weekend’s four games are rematches – only the Chiefs and Patriots will line up against each other for the first time – so we might have some idea of what toRead More

The NFL is down to its final eight contenders, and over this weekend, that number will be whittled down to the final four. Here’s what to expect this Divisional Playoff weekend. All picks are against the spread, with lines reflecting January 9th. I’ve thrown in predictions at the end for good measure. HOME TEAM is in caps. Happy playoffs!   Baltimore Ravens (+7) OVER NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS Make no mistake, I think New England is the superior team here. However, I do think the Ravens are very capable of covering seven points. ForRead More

The season has legitimately arrived, now with 2 full weeks in the books. There were many highs and lows both on and off the field, but here are the top 5 takeaways. 5. Controversy Although I care more about what happens on the field, I’d be remiss not to acknowledge what is happening behind closed doors. Especially when it involves domestic abuse. Despite some amazing games over the weekend, all anyone is talking about is Ray Rice and Adrian Peterson. Peterson is the latest in dead beat dad horror stories,Read More

It was one hell of a Championship Sunday. Here are ten things we learned last weekend. Check back later this week for more Super Bowl coverage! Let’s start with the game between the Broncos and Patriots. #10 – Brady vs. Manning has more to do with teams and locations than individuals. As is always the case when Peyton and Tom Terrific meet, the media focused all week on Manning v. Brady instead of Broncos v. Patriots. While everyone knows by now that Brady now holds a 10-5 record against Manning,Read More

Time for the NFL’S final four. Championship Sunday. And shockingly, the four teams thought to be the best back in August are still standing. Broncos-Patriots, and Seahawks-Niners. Let’s do this. I sucked majorly last week going 0-3-1, but hey, nobody’s perfect. All of the games except for the smackdown the Patriots laid on the Colts could have easily gone the other way, as far as the spread is concerned, SO I’M OKAY WITH IT AND DON’T MAKE FUN OF ME. As always, these are not predictions on who will WIN the gamesRead More

It’s weekends like this upcoming one that make being a sports fan wonderful. In one game, you’ve got two of, if not THE two greatest quarterbacks of all time fighting for a chance at one more ring to help finish cementing their legacies. In the other, you’ve got two of most exciting and dynamic young quarterbacks in the game, eager to begin creating theirs. It’s also worth noting that the four remaining teams were by most accounts, the favorites to make it this far at the beginning of the season,Read More

NFL Divisional Weekend is upon us, and as we inch closer to the Super Bowl, the teams get better and the stakes get higher. Here are my predictions for a Divisional Playoff weekend full of regular season rematches. Just to be clear, these are not predictions on who will WIN the games this weekend, but rather who will cover the spread. Here are my against the spread picks for the NFL Divisional Round games. HOME TEAM is in CAPS, and lines reflect Saturday, January 10th. (Wild Card Weekend Picks: 2-1-1 ATS)  SATURDAY,Read More

Most of us who follow the NFL are familiar with Patriots’ wideout and punt returner, Julian Edelman. After a 2012 season that was punctuated by injuries, Edelman’s really blown the lid off of his 5th season in the NFL, making franchise records and earning folks some decent fantasy numbers. In his last game against the Bills, Edelman became the third Patriots player in history to catch 100 passes in a single season. He is also the 10th player in franchise history to record a 1,000-yard receiving season, and he ranksRead More
