With the draft in the books and free agency activity slowing, it’s finally time for the first edition of 2012 power rankings. In the parenthesis are my projected records for each time. 1. New York Giants (12-4) The Giants have been relatively quiet in free agency this year. I wasn’t a huge fan of their first round selection of David Wilson, but it wasn’t a horrible pick by any stretch either. Wilson will be ...

There has been groveling of late from the NFL community and fans that Sean Payton has no right to appeal his year-long suspension, and that it is in fact immoral that he does so.  That stance is skewed. Sean Payton is still a football coach who has put in six years of hard work into developing a Super Bowl caliber team and a city that had nothing but the New Orleans Saints to look towards in the wake of Hur ...

  1. Green Bay Packers (15-1)-The record-breaking success of backup quarterback Matt Flynn against the Lions can only hurt Aaron Rodger’s chances for an MVP, if only in that it creates a shadow of a doubt as to whether or not Rodgers deserves the nod over Drew Brees.   2.

Green Bay Packers (10-0)-The Bucs have now laid the blueprint for beating the Packers. Will it happen? This remains to be seen. Can it happen? The way the Packers defense is playing, it can happen on any given Sunday. San Francisco 49ers (9-1)-The 49ers rank 6th in rushing yards and have the league’s most dominant rush defense led by Patrick Willis. They have a quarterback that is not making crucial mistake ...

His full name is Eddie Lee Williams, but you can just call him "Boo". The tight end was a top recruit... before being involved in a Tallahassee high school brawl. He therefore lost his scholarship and went to JuCo. After 2 years of All-American-ness he joined the Arkansas Razorbacks. In his one year with Arkansas he caught 7 touchdowns. But regardless of his college success Boo was not drafted. However, he ...
