I was hovering around some college basketball and the bowl games but settled in more for the NFL in the late afternoon and evening. Utah State has a TE Dax Raymond who has been talked up some for the draft. To me though the most interesting find yesterday was their RS sophomore #9 LB David...

For me in the AFC it is the Patriots and the Steelers first and foremost to root for even though they aren't anywhere near the type of caste free type of teams I want to see. For the rest of the bunch it is a slice and dice affair where it all depends on how prominent a role certain white...

Well put FD. I was let down because neither Kelce or Bosa had a big time performance. And Sorensen played quite a bit in the second half but he wasn't involved in any of the key passes that killed KC down the stretch. I have been hearing about the "greatness" of S Eric Berry for ages now. The...

To follow up on Rocky and Leofan's comments regarding Backrow's question I concur that the two RBs with the best chance of getting drafted are AJ Ouellette and Patrick Laird. Both in my mind are better prospects than Ryan Nall who went undrafted last year. I have them graded as 6th or 7th round...

I have had dental visits less painful than the game last night. I won't attempt to diagnose the Vikings. They still have a shot at the playoffs as they have Miami at home then at Detroit and finish with the Bears at home, who may not have anything to play for by then. LB Ben Gideon played a...

It is a shame Kuechly and CM have such abysmal talent surrounding them. I remember when Julian Edelman was thought of as an average player. That all changed after he bagged two Super Bowls although Edelman has never gotten the level of respect he deserves. Speaking of playing for atrocious...

The oddest of all weeks as the above posts illustrate. And CrazyFinn hits the nail on the head describing the Patriots defense on that last second Miami TD. Can you believe some people are blaming Brady for the loss citing his rare mental error before the half? Without Brady, Gronkowski (...

For those that missed the fight it is being replayed tonight on ESPN2 at 8:00 PM EST. I actually missed the last three rounds but saw highlights of Loma destroying Pedraza in the 11th round. Yes Loma is special. At first I thought they would have the obnoxious Teddy Atlas in the announcing...

While the NFL caste fest played out last night I turned my attention elsewhere and to my surprise ESPN2 had on a HS game featuring Nico Mannion from the class of 2019. Also in the game was the number 2 or 3 rated player in the class of 2020 SG Jalen Green. Mannion is ranked between 10 -15 in his...

Some notable names who were selected for the Walter Camp All- American team: Second team--WR David Sills TE-T.J. Hockenson - as previously reported he won the prestigious Mackey award for best TE in the nation. DE-Chase Winovich...

Ha that one made me laugh out loud. Yep tonight's game is like diving head first into a dirty river. Not recommended. Even I will skip this sucker in it's entirety. Like an SEC/NFL mash up. Bad stuff.

Every passing year I have become more and more skeptical of the combine process. The over emphasis on these artificial drills (40 yard dash, vertical leap and what have you) I come away thinking the scouts and GMs are more interested in bicep size than actual playing field football skills. When...

The big news that hit this morning is Ohio State's Urban Meyer is retiring. OC Ryan Day will take over. Not often I am impressed with a college HC. Notoriously picky but remember Ryan Day filled in for Meyer early this season and did a great job leading the Buckeyes to three early wins before...

In my opinion McCarthy and the Packers never recovered from that dreadful 2015 playoff loss to Seattle. McCarthy never recaptured that early magic after that game but I have never actively disliked him like some here at CF. He did give us the Rodgers/ Matthews/ Jordy era and one sterling Super...

Someone mentioned on the Kansas State thread that HC Bill Snyder stepped down. Just a few weeks ago I alluded to such because his management at the end of the Iowa State game was poor to say the least. He had a great run. His time was up but at least he recognized it. Some of these old washed...

Mannix is an important player. Pros and cons to this move although the upside is better with a transfer. The bad: I assume he will have to sit out a full year? The bad: The article I read didn't make it clear he wants to transfer to another school leaving open the dreadful idea that he is...

Dammit every Sunday I miss NFL action between 4-6 due to my schedule. And the Patriots -Vikings is a tasty treat. I'll catch the second half at home. Also of interest this week. Josh Allen will be back in action. Redskins- Eagles has more intrigue now that WR Trey Quinn is getting some...

I understand the frustration that Old Scratch and others have with Duke this season. Those "fab" freshman are beyond annoying. The gushing gets sickening. That said I am willing to suffer through it. Coach K has one of the better track records of any big time coach we care to mention. And...

I watched all of the Texas- Oklahoma and Alabama-Georgia games and then the two night games---with a little college basketball sprinkled in. I did not watch one second of that crap UCF-Memphis basketball on grass pansy fest. Just cannot watch that kind of football if that is what you want to...

Yes the Britain Covey knee injury was a bummer. Not sure how serious? Hopefully just a strain. Four or maybe five white NFL types stood out last night. All on the defensive side of the ball. Let me just say that black Utah QB might be the worst Division One QB I have watched all year. He is...

As mentioned above the Hunt incident is not as serious as Ray Rice's vicious punch. In fact I was surprised the Chiefs released him considering they have T Hill on the team who was involved in a more serious incident to the best of my knowledge. The NFL is trying to look "sensitive" on these...

Georgia Tech HC Paul Johnson stepped down. You wonder what will happen to their option attack? And what about RB Nate Cottrell? If they stop running the option will they line up Cottrell at tail back? Will he disappear? I don't think the speedster is on NFL draft lists but if they let him...

Trouble in paradise. Looks like the Chiefs gravy train just hit a stop sign. RB Kareem Hunt was caught on tape in a semi melee especially with a chick in a short skirt. His little kick at the end, the proverbial icing not on the cake , will likely either end his season or badly curtail it...

Ha FD I'll have what you are drinking.

This is the same front office with Doug Williams pulling the strings that wouldn't allow HC Jay Gruden to draft WR Trey Quinn in an earlier round.
