1. The Cincinnati Bengals Are A Serious Threat To Win The Super Bowl Four games, four wins, one turnover for Andy Dalton. The Bengals have dominated through their first four games. Yesterday, Andy Dalton played another terrific game. He finished with 321 passing yards and one touchdown, but what really sticks out to me, is the fact that Dalton still has only turned the ball over once this season. This is the first time in his career that he hasn’t committed more than one turnover over a span…

Football is not for everyone Many people ask the question, what is a sport? ”A sport is an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment (topendsports.com)”. People think that sports are just for fun and most of the time it is, but professional athletes make sports a career. There is a wide selection of talented men and women that play sports and it is amazing to see them perform their talent. Players are…

The reason the Patriots are in the Super Bowl for the 7th time in Tom Brady’s career is because of his leadership and consistency on and off the field. On the field he picks apart all the defenses in the NFL. He doesn’t have to have good receivers to make them good. He makes them good because of his work ethic in practice and his timing and his accuracy. Brady was suspended the first four games of the year this season and he still ended the season with MVP numbers. He finished with 28 touchdowns…

The 45th annual BattleFrog Fiesta Bowl features two of college football’s top traditional powers. On New Years Day, the Ohio State Buckeyes and Notre Dame Fighting Irish will battle in sunny Glendale, Ariz. Ohio State The Buckeyes saw their College Football Playoff hopes disappear when Michigan State Spartans kicker Michael Geiger hit a 41-yard field goal as time expired in the Horseshoe on Nov. 21. Despite the fact Urban Meyer's team would no longer hold a top four ranking, the loss to…

1 Paul "Bear" Bryant He is the most recognizable coach in college football history.

Tight end Jermaine Gresham has reached a deal with the Arizona Cardinals. The two-time Pro Bowler has signed a one-year deal with the team, but the financial terms have not been made public.

Last season, the tight end caught 62 passes and five touchdowns. Gresham joins an Arizona Cardinals roster that…

The dynamic aspect he brings to the Steelers’ offense is something that cannot be measured. In the absence of Ben Roethlisberger the team has managed to win two of their three games. I said it four weeks ago, if the Steelers could float around .500 until the return of Big Ben, the Steelers would be fine. Without Roethlisbger this team is a solid playoff team, with him? A Super Bowl contender. 6. Carolina Panthers: 5-0 (13) Despite being one of five undefeated teams, this is the first week…

A great trick play that pays off can demoralize the opposition and provide enjoyable memories for years to come. Think of Dan Marino yelling, “Clock,” to delude the Jets into thinking he would spike the ball or the Bills sneaking a defensive lineman onto the field to catch a touchdown on a fake field goal attempt. But trick plays can also go wrong. And when they go as badly wrong as whatever the Colts were trying Sunday night, they bring not admiration, but scorn, mockery and just plain laughter…
