Sadly it has been announce that the Aug 7th Scheduled Hall of Fame game between the Chicago Bears and St. Louis Rams has become the first victim of the lock out. The game which is viewed by many as an integral part of the 10 day Pro Football Hall of Fame Enshrinement Festival will not be […] Continue reading → Life has a funny habit of going full circle and it finally looks like the drawn out and occasionally acrimonious NFL labour dispute could finally come to a conclusion in Atlanta of all places, the stage for the start of the problems way back in May 2008, when the NFL owners opted out of the […] Continue reading → Found this classic clip of the great Jonny Unitas leading the Baltimore Colts to the 1959 NFL World Championship. Will open in a new window: AMERICAN FOOTBALL LEAGUE, BALTIMORE V. NEW YORK Continue reading → The St Louis Rams were one of the surprise teams of the 2010 NFL season, thanks in no small part to having drafted Sam Bradford with the No1 pick. In 2011 they have drafted well adding some explosive pass rushing talent and also picked up Lance Kendricks who could turn out to be a Pro […] Continue reading → The second and third rounds of the draft are now over and there was some good value floating around, most of which soon got snapped up. We were a little surprised that the Patriots took Ras-I Dowling at 33 given Brandon Harris was still available, still Dowling is a good 4″ taller and they obviously […] Continue reading → Round two of the 2011 draft now sees the New England Patriots with 3 picks having acquired pick 24 from the Saints; and they have first choice today.

Newton going to the Panthers was probably the world’s worst kept secret but Gabbert falling to 10 and the Jags trading up for him – well done […] Continue reading → OK its nearly upon us and without further ado heres our final mock draft. A couple of minor changes given that it looks like Cam Newton and not Blaine Gabbert will have the dubious honour of being QB for Carolina. Otherwise its much the same as we initially picked. We think there is a good […] Continue reading → Where should the skins go in the 2011 draft. I’m not sure they know themselves given they have so many imponderablesespecially at QB. McNabb looks like he will be gone as soon as there is a free agency and is Rex Grossman really the answer under centre? Sure he reached a Superbowl with the Bears, […] Continue reading → The Titans had a miserable 2010 which is reflected in their no 8 pick. They desperately need to sort out their QB position, however with Gabbert and Newton likely gone, it will be interesting to see how they play it. A trade down to the mid teens would probably not be enough to guarantee picking […] Continue reading →
