Is Cole Gone?

Written by DJ | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | LombardiAve (Packers)

It appears the Packers could miss out on defensive tackle Colin Cole, who looks poised to end up with the Seattle Seahawks or the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. From JSOnline:
The Packers are letting the market dictate what Cole is worth rather than pushing ahead with a deal that might wind up being richer than what [...]

Ray Lewis Needs To Be A Cowboy, Jerry Jones

Written by thelandryhat | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | The Landry Hat (Cowboys)

It’s been awhile since I have shown myself on camera. Why? Because I had to recover from this season’s dismal ending. I was not happy. In fact, I was downright angry. And, I feared that the violence I’d portray on video could possibly, literally freak people out.
Embarrassed is an understatement. But I’m back. Bigger and [...]

Drama-mandzadeh Continues

Written by David | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | Stripe Hype (Bengals)

Will T.J. Houshmandzadeh don the horned helmet of the Vikings and proceed to rape and pillage the coasts of England…err…the NFC North? Well, your guess is as good as mine, but there are conflicting reports of a new visit to Tampa Bay. Since I’m too lazy to copy and paste a boatload of links, take [...]

It Must Be McNabb’s Fault

Written by Scott | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | Inside the Iggles (Eagles)

Say it ain’t so. The sky has fallin. It’s a dark day. The end of an era.
BRIAN DAWKINS IS NO LONGER AN EAGLE!!
What the @#$%? How can they let the heart and soul of the team go? I’m so distraught. I need someone to blame. I know it’s not Reid’s fault; he was at Pat’s [...]

A Legend Passes Away

Written by John White | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | FanSided

Forgive me for being off topic for a moment.
A broadcasting pioneer and, frankly, one of my heroes has passed away.  Paul Harvey has died at the age of 90.
Maybe I’m giving away my age here and that’s fine but I can remember growing up and listening to Harvey as he would provide us all with [...]

Schilling to the Cubs?

Written by Dan Zinski | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | FanSided

Former World Series MVP Curt Schilling told reporters he would like a shot to help the Cubs break their infamous curse and finally win a championship after a century of failure.  That’s IF he deems himself able to return from the shoulder surgery that shelved him for the entire 2008 season.  “”I’m hemming and hawing [...]

Bill Belichek Is Not Heartless

Written by Sec119RayJay | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | The Pewter Plank (Bucs)

The Patriots today sent 3600 yard passer Matt Cassel as well as OLB Mike Vrabel to the Kansas City Chiefs for a 2nd round pick (34).  I have to admit, I’m a little jealous of the deal from my own teams standpoint, and love it for the Chiefs.  Regardless of the knocks people want to put [...]

Another Cardinal Leaves the Nest

Written by AZScott | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | Raising Zona (Cardinals)

Two days, two gone.  First J.J. Arrington, now Antonio Smith.
Antonio Smith signed an offer this afternoon with the Houston Texans.  I always felt of the more valuable free agents, he’d be on of the first to go.  Smith had a wonderful season and Houston recognized that.  Hopefully this means a little more in the tank [...]

Posted by: Shaun Dolence

Neuheisel put character first.

Reggie Williams is interested in coming back to the Pacific Northwest to play football with the Seahawks?
“Of course, I’d like to come back and play for the Seahawks,” Reggie Williams recently told reporters, expressing a desire to play back home. “I’d definitely like to come back to the [...]

Cassel Off the Market

Written by John White | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | FanSided

Today is a happy day for Kansas City Chiefs fans and a miserable day for New England Patriots fans.  Matt Cassel has been traded to the Chiefs for a second-round draft pick along with Mike Vrabel.
Allow me to be one of the few to question KC’s trade.
Consider that Cassel is going to make $14.5 million [...]

Is LT Coming to the NFC South?

Written by John White | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | FanSided

An interesting rumor has hit the net – the Saints could be working on trying to land Ladainian Tomlinson.

Sources close to the situation have informed me that the New Orleans Saints are “looking closely” at San Diego Chargers running back LaDainian Tomlinson.  The Saints would have a “high level of interest” if the Chargers were unable to come [...]

Bye Bye Anthony Henry; Hello Jon Kitna

Written by thelandryhat | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | The Landry Hat (Cowboys)

Well, we’ve got our backup quarterback, and quite honestly, I think Jon Kitna is the best guy out there who the Dallas Cowboys could have back up Tony Romo.
I don’t mind the trade at all. Henry certainly has declined over the year in Dallas and we’ve seen him get beat real bad in important games. [...]

Three Teams in on Housh

Written by Dan Zinski | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | The Viking Age (Vikings)

T.J. Houshmandzadeh has three main suitors to choose from that we’re aware of:  Seattle, Cincinnati and the Vikings.  Some have mentioned the Giants as a dark horse but other reports have the Giants believing Housh’s price is too steep.  Houshmandzadeh told Bengals.com that he expects to make his decision by tomorrow.  Seattle’s presentation apparently impressed [...]

Dawkins Aboard

Written by Kim | February 28, 2009 | Comments Off | Predominantly Orange (Broncos)

S Brian Dawkins, DT Darrell Reid, and LB Andra Davis are the latest players to step through the door at Dove Valley. Yesterday was mostly offense, and today, mostly defense. Maybe I shouldn’t speak so soon. I can’t keep up with the Broncos right now, and the day isn’t over. They have been one of the most active [...]
