Collectively speaking, all four members of the AFC South haven’t had much to get excited about in recent years. While there have been glimmers of hope, particularly for the Houston Texans, having made three Divisional Round appearances (2011, 2012, 2016), the AFC South has been wildly inconsistent, especially following Peyton Manning’s departure from the Indianapolis Colts in 2011. Honestly, the only real consistency has been the Jacksonville Jaguars’ miserable performances, which haven't…

Green Bay Packers Intro The Green Bay Packers are from Green Bay, Wisconsin. Green Bay is one of the longest living football teams.

The Walter Payton award is, an award that honors both your field work, and your involvement in the community. History One thing incredible about the Packers, is that the trophy for the super…

Are the Falcons overrated? Entering the 2015 season, the Falcons fans had lofty expectancies for the team to go on to the Super Bowl. However, those expectancies were impractical, considering some of the major unsorted complications. When they had only 6 regular season matches left, Atlanta was at 6-4, a record entirely inconsistent with very naïve expectancies. A precise examination of the Falcons’ record last season reveals how overrated they were. The team’s susceptibilities were really…

The general topic of this paper is to address hindsight bias and putting it to the test which will be demonstrating the prediction of a sporting event using hindsight bias. Research has been done for hindsight bias and it has been shown that “Hindsight bias has explained as people’s incorporation of the outcome of an event into their memory of the event – the reconstructionist view.” (Raacke, Fryer, Nicks, & Durr, 2001, p. 350) The purpose of this research is to mainly examine hindsight bias in…

The nail biting, nerve wrecking, back and forth 31-28 overtime victory to the Minnesota Vikings was an unforgettable moment in football history. This win over the Vikings put The New Orleans Saints into the first Super Bowl in franchise history and Coach Payton was the pilot. I selected Coach Payton’s memorable and profound NFC Championship post-game interview. Coach Payton mentioned more than once that he was struggling with his emotions and expressed the game was kind of a blur to him at…
