  • 10 Most Hated NFL Players

    After going through the guys people like to love, it’s time to put the spotlight on the most hated played in the NFL according to Nielsen and E-Poll market research, which tells us that it’s never good to play for the Cowboys (Tony Romo) or one of those schools people love to hate (Notre Dame, USC) if you’re planning on having a disappointing career like Matt Leinart and Brady Quinn.

    2012 NFL Season – Buccaneers vs Vikings Predictions

    Last time we had what appeared to be such a one sided affair on Thursday night, it ended up in a huge upset. The Minnesota Vikings have an advantage at almost every position over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but on short weeks for both teams anything can happen.

    10 Most Popular Players in the NFL

    Being the most popular player and the least goes hand in hand in the NFL, and in most sports. Obviously, this being a quarterback league, they will feature prominently in any top 10 list, with 5 (Matthew Stafford, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, Robert Griffin III, Aaron Rodgers) making it in, with the Green Bay Packers the only team with multiple players on it.

  • Minnesota Vikings – Adrian Peterson as Good as Barry Sanders

    Minnesota Vikings – Adrian Peterson as Good as Barry Sanders

    Numbers sometimes lie, but usually they don’t. Adrian Peterson is back after his injury problems to lead the Minnesota Vikings to a 5-2 record, looking at times like the best running back in the NFL, which he was before the injuries. How good? Maybe even Barry Sanders good?

  • Washington Redskins – Robert Griffin III Isn’t Your Ordinary Rookie

    Washington Redskins – Robert Griffin III Isn’t Your Ordinary Rookie

    Moral wins aren’t something people look up to very much, but it feels Robert Griffin III and the Washington Redskins didn’t take the 23-27 loss to the New York Giants as too much of a defeat. For them and especially him, they way they played and hung in with the NFL champions proved this team is ready to win now.

  • NFL Power Rankings – Week 7

    NFL Power Rankings – Week 7

    The Atlanta Falcons are still undefeated (bye weeks help keep that record going), but impressive wins for the Houston Texans, New York Giants and the Chicago Bears push them closer to the top on week 7, with the San Francisco 49ers and the Green Bay Packers (they’re back) obviously teams to consider when talking about Super Bowl contention.

  • Chicago Bears – Best NFL Defense Covering for Jay Cutler

    Chicago Bears – Best NFL Defense Covering for Jay Cutler

    Jay Cutler is a good quarterback on most days, nothing more. The Chicago Bears defense might be the best in the NFL, proving it once more as they took a big hold on the lead in the NFC North with a 13-7 win over the Detroit Lions, which was never really that close.

  • Carolina Panthers – Blinded by the Cam Newton Lights

    Carolina Panthers – Blinded by the Cam Newton Lights

    If it’s possible to sum up the story of the Carolina Panthers in a quick short sentence, it’ll probably have to do with the orginization putting too much faith on their quarterback, Cam Newton, disregarding all the other issues needed to be addressed in almost every position.

  • Green Bay Packers – Aaron Rodgers Back in MVP Form

    Green Bay Packers – Aaron Rodgers Back in MVP Form

    A rough start to the season should mean that Aaron Rodgers won’t be defending his MVP title from last season, but when he’s on his game, like he has been for the past two weeks, he just might be the best quarterback in the NFL, and has the Green Bay Packers looking like a contender again.

  • Houston Texans – The Best Team in the AFC

    Houston Texans – The Best Team in the AFC

    Sometimes, it’s not about opinion, but purely about the record. There’s only one loss team in the AFC after there were two on Sunday Morning. The Houston Texans took care of that by destroying the Baltimore Ravens 43-13, leaving no room for doubt or comparison between the two teams.
