NFL Week 7 Power Rankings: Minecart Madness Edition
It’s not what it looks like, this is a post about the NFL. Power Rankings.
It’s not what it looks like, this is a post about the NFL. Power Rankings.
Just when you thought I couldn’t be less creative, I separate our ranking tiers into television references. Join me on my descent into madness.
“Yeah, once Monday Night Football is over, you can just go ahead and crank out some rankings! Just put the order together as you watch the games Sunday and have an idea of where you’d put the two MNF teams based on how they perform. Pretty simple. Even you can handle that!” I tell myself as I sit on my sofa completing contact cards from the various college fairs I attended that week.
What happens when NFL teams stop being polite, and start being real? Nothing Nothing happens. I’m just arbitrarily ranking teams for Weeks 1 and 2.
I’m not going to say I’m never wrong because that would be a bold ass lie. I can say, however, that I try not to speak unless I’m totally informed on a subject. One subject I’m completely informed on is how much the Eagles are intent on ruining my life. They make head-scratching decisions and … Continue reading Admitting You’re Wrong is Half the Battle
Last week’s slate of matchups featured some of the most highly contested games we’ve seen in a collective week. As we head into Week 2, all the questions are on the table. We’ll try and make sense of it all this week and prepare for our first set of power rankings next week.
In case you haven’t heard the news, the Minnesota Vikings have traded for Eagles incumbent starter Sam Bradford. They didn’t just trade for Sam Bradford, oh no, nope, they gave up a 1st and 4th (2018) rounder for him.
I am not an expert by any means. There are scouts in the NFL who are amazing at what they do. They see things in prospects that the untrained eye can’t see. On the other hand, there are a lot of guys who are terrible at their jobs. There are decisions made that are head … Continue reading Why Does the NFL Suck at Evaluating QBs?
We’ve been waiting on this moment since Von Miller and the Broncos shut down the Dab in February. Since the 1st overhyped Spring Game that we all salivated over. Since the NFL cancelled the Hall of Fame Game.
The NFL goes through fads. Like an old pair of flare jeans in your mom’s closet, philosophies might become outdated then “in” again. Trent Richardson nearly ruined it for everyone. He bombed so hard that teams were afraid to even take an RB in round 2. After a successful campaign by Todd Gurley, going in the … Continue reading The Year of the Running Back
Hi. I’m a nobody. But I’m a nobody with an opinion, and you’re going to read it. I like to argue with people, it’s the primary reason I want to go on Big Brother, so I can make everyone mad and come in 6th. “What happened to the playoff series you were working on?” I … Continue reading ESPN Got The QB Tiers Wrong…Let Me Fix It For You
Part x out of 8 of our series continues. I don’t know how many I have left. Somebody pray for me, my fingers are acting on their own and I can’t stop them.
Oh, and I talk about the NFL.
No one knows what’s going to happen with the NFC East. Not a soul. But I want to guess anyway!
No one can predict who will actually make the playoffs this far out. But I can sure can tell you how they’ll miss it!
That is you, “everything is rigged” guy. A grown adult crying like a child because you don’t like the result of a sporting event. “IT’S ALL RIGGED” you cry weeping tears into your smartphone, “THE NBA IS RIGGED, IT’S ALL RIGGED, THEY HAD THIS PLANNED FROM THE START.” You turn to your wall full of team … Continue reading The NBA Finals Aren’t Rigged, You’re Just A Sore Loser
If you missed part 1 of our series, shame on you. You can find it here. Onward. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS Will make the postseason if: There’s any resemblance of improvement defensively. Okay, I lied. Defense needs to be leaps and bounds better, though to their credit they have improved and found themselves a bonafide corner … Continue reading How Every NFC South Team Can Make/Miss The Postseason
Considering that we’re both from Alabama, @cheesusslice and I both have unusual fan loyalties. I’m an Eagles fan, he’s a Jets fan. The question we’re often asked is, “Why????”. I wish we had answer. Maybe we like pain and suffering. Maybe we don’t want to know what it feels like to have a happy Sunday. … Continue reading Why We Hate Our Teams [@RonQuixote_ and @CheesusSlice]
