Sometimes a brutal loss leaves you in disgust of your team (see Oakland Raiders, 2010). Sometimes a brutal loss leaves you in awe of your opponent. This one was a bit more of the latter. Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers put a number on the Denver Broncos Sunday. An early 3-0 lead by […]

Two words can be used to describe Denver Broncos defensive end Jason Hunter: play maker. During his four-year collegiate career at Appalachian State, Hunter recorded 186 tackles (110 solo), 38.5 tackles for loss, 24 sacks, nine passes defened, five forced fumbles, five fumble recoveries and one interception, scoring three times. After running a relatively slow […]

Could NFL teams — the Denver Broncos even? –  really tank the season for Andrew Luck? [ESPN] If you haven’t heard, Aaron Rodgers is pretty good.

Since one of my teams is currently at the top of the NFL and the other is dangerously close to the cellar, I figured that now would be a good time to ask:

What can the Denver Broncos learn from the Green Bay Packers?

Just exactly how many sacks will Sam Bradford endure this Sunday? The rookie has looked like the real deal, but will it transition to the regular season? Darnell Dockett would sure like to welcome him to the NFL. Mike Singletary has quietly been putting together one of the toughest and meanest defenses in the NFL, […]

My power rankings are fittingly named the ‘Tentative Ten’ because every week it’s subject to change, and erratically at that. This week the Tentative Ten will only feature the top ten eleven rankings. In another post all of  weekly awards will be featured. 1.
