Super Bowl XVIII

The sport we in the United States know as football is more so called gridiron football, for the vertical yard lines that mark the field. Closely related to some English sports, rugby and soccer gridiron football originated at collages in North America, primarily the United States, in the late 19th century. On November 6 1869, the players from Princeton and Rutgers held the first intercollegiate football contest in New Brunswick, New Jersey, playing a soccer style game with rules adapted from the…

NBC Sunday Night Football has been a growing tradition for NFL fans over the past 10 years. NBC offers primetime games every sunday night usually featuring marquee teams and a great broadcasting crew. The NFL even offers flex scheduling between weeks 5-17 to ensure quality matchups. In turn, NBC usually pulls in between 20-25 million viewers per game, ranking them in the top 2 most viewed game per week. In light of this, I decided to watch a Sunday Night Football game as part of my media…

The Carolina Panthers are enjoying their bye week in the best position possible at 4-0. The last time this team was undefeated was 2003; when we made it to the Super Bowl I'd say that is good karma. Many around the league have called us “the worst undefeated team due to the lack of competition we faced early in the year. My response to that is we don't make the schedule and the reality is in any sport anyone can win on any day. I will echo head coach Ron Rivera's sentiments when he said we are…

For a team nicknamed the Ramblin’ Wreck, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets sure do live up to the mantra. That may not sure this season, but the Yellow Jackets have wrecked the Pitt Panthers in their last two meetings. Two seasons ago, quarterback Tom Savage was terrorized by a Tech defense that dominated the Panthers in a 21-10 stomping at Bobby Dodd Stadium. Last season’s matchup was marred by the worst first quarter in Pitt history. Five fumbles in consecutive drives doomed the Panthers…

While the San Diego Chargers languish towards the bottom of the AFC Conference, Head Coach Mike McCoy seems to be ever the optimist. Instead of focusing on the team's 2-7 record despite having the number two quarterback in the league in Philip Rivers, McCoy is busy contemplating the return of injured wide receiver Malcolm Floyd in hopes he can help the team still win some games. Floyd sustained a torn shoulder injury in his left shoulder two weeks ago against in a home loss to the Chicago Bears…

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…

According to Roto World Dirk Koetter is currently a 3rd tier coach. If you take a closer look at the rankings he is actually next to last among coaches that were retained from the 2017 season; only beating Hue Jackson from the Browns (and 7 other newly hired head coaches who are unranked). Names like Todd Bowels, Vance Joseph, and Jay Gruden are supposedly better coaches than Koetter. While Koetter’s second year out of the gate left much to be desired, designating him to effectively only out…

will go down as one of the best players in history. The Green Bay Packers have a lot of history to them and their stadium. The Packers have the most championships in NFL history. They have everything from NFC championships to Super Bowl championships. They have four Super Bowl championships and three NFC Championships, those are just the major championships. Twenty-three people in the Hall of Fame played for the Packers. The Packers have 23 legendary people in the Hall of Fame. These people…

commercials regurgitated over and over. I know that the moment there is a same irritating ad; I automatically flip over to another channel and wait until there is another déjà vu. Ironically, the only time I ever watch the ads for enjoyment is the Super Bowl and often can be more exciting than the game itself. The money spent by companies like Budlight,…
