Another weekend of playoff games, another blowout fest until the very last game, but even that game wasn’t really in doubt toward the end. Hopefully next week we’ll get a little more excitement with Favre in the bayou and Manning navigating around Revis Island. Please, blog, may I have some more?
I amazingly predicted yesterday’s games correctly so there is a good chance I will go o-fer today. But I’ll give the old MFA in Poetry from a small art school try! I’ll take a look at all four of the playoff games on Monday, so for now get your game face on (not your O face please) and get ready for some hot NFL on FOX and CBS action! Please, blog, may I have some more?
The divisional round of the playoffs is nigh! Amazingly each game this weekend looks like it should be good. Of course last week we may have thought the same thing and 3 out of 4 of the games were prescribed for insomnia by 3 out of 4 doctors. Please, blog, may I have some more?
The majority of the playoff teams got here by throwing the ball, but we see two teams in the divisional round that arrived via the ground. The Jets and Ravens are living by the old adage that a great defense and a good running game win championships. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Last week I included a little “What to Watch” question with each game. I started to do the same this week, then I realized that I would mostly be watching the same thing in each game — will the team that had a first round bye week exhibit any signs of rust? Please, blog, may I have some more?
You can check out the top 10 quarterbacks for 2009 if you missed them. We now move ahead into the top 10 running backs. As we look back at the backs we can easily see how hard it is to pick a top 10 back consistently from year to year. Please, blog, may I have some more?
In July and August we were so young and unspoiled. Then, September rolled around and we could barely contain our naughty parts. But the season brought with it some harsh realities. One being that you have no control of what happens on the field! Please, blog, may I have some more?

Wildcard weekend was a long boring journey through Snoresville, Blowout Town, and Not This Againburgh, but thankfully our final destination was Awesome Shootout Into Overtime Heights. The Cardinals and Packers put up a record 96 combined points and helped restore my faith that there could be exciting football. Please, blog, may I have some more?
It’s the first annual Razzball Fantasy Football awards!!! This is your last chance to reminisce and pretend that football season’s not over with and that, after the playoffs, you won’t be stuck watching the NBA.
When the fantasy season ends, or when all their teams are out of contention, most people just shut it down until late August. Please, blog, may I have some more?
The playoffs start today! The first game doesn’t start until 4:30 Eastern so I’m giving you some linkage to peruse before gametime. This will also give you time to get so drunk that you won’t be able to see the games, so remember, football is also good when you can tell who has the ball. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Regular season fantasy leagues are over, but there’s a lot of fantasy playoff leagues as well, and if you haven’t joined one yet, be sure to check out our Sporting News playoff league and/or our playoff challenge at NFL.com.
Saturday, 4:30 PM
New York Jets @ Cincinnati
Despite Cincinnati’s stoutness against the run during the regular season I think Thomas Jones is a relatively solid play. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Before we look at the games, I want to say thanks to Doc for stepping in for 3 weeks while I closed and moved into my first house. Like Pedro Cerrano, you’re in good hands with Doc.
