Is the string of injuries for the New York Giants a case of bad luck or poor planning? This week, after Big Blue placed would-be starting middle linebacker Jon Beason on injured reserve, the team also announced that starting tailback Rashad Jennings would miss the contest due to a lingering knee injury.
On Saturday, the Jets said cornerback Darrin Walls won't travel with the team to Kansas City. Phillip Adams could start in his place.
These Gang Green fans are seeing red. The site, which launched earlier this week, features an "Idzik Hall of Shame" complete with images of failed pickups and embarrassing press clippings.
Like Ahmad Bradshaw, the Giants let Hakeem Nicks walk away as a free agent, too. But unlike Bradshaw, Nicks' second chance hasn't gone quite as well.
The flicks of the wrist that rocket footballs downfield 50-plus yards with ease. The pretty spirals. The video game-like elusiveness. That's Michael Vick at his best.
Finally we got to the wildly popular segment of the program where Boomer and Craig offer up their "award-winning" NFL Picks-Picks-Picks against the spread for Week 9 of the NFL season.
I went 2-3 last week. Let's break down my NFL Week 9 JB Locks against the spread.
The National Football League on Thursday asked a judge to toss out a lawsuit filed by former players who allege team officials gave them powerful painkillers and other drugs to keep them on the field without regard for their long-term health.
The Saints are coming off their best game of the year after hammering Green Bay 44-23. However, they have not won a road game this year. The Panthers are hoping to continue that trend, and they will be bringing back a familiar face in running back DeAngelo Williams.
The Saints and Panthers are both 3-4 and yet tied atop the NFC South. New Orleans has an extremely quick turnaround after playing on Sunday night.
Many credited linebacker Jon Beason with solidifying the New York Giants in 2013. The team allowed Beason to enter free agency, but eventually re-sgned him to a three-year, $17 million contract, that raised some eyebrows. The team announced on Monday that Beason would miss the remainder of the 2014 after aggravating a lingering foot injury.
Remember those AFC championship games? For many Jets fans, it might as well be back to the days of Weeb Eubanks and Joe Namath.
To summarize: The 1-7 Jets have all the pieces in place for a winner. Wonderful up-and-coming quarterback, great coach, great front office, great owner. What?!
The Colts, you loved them right? I sure did. What happens on Sunday? They get demolished by the Steelers and the most underappreciated QB in the NFL.
How do we even put postmortems on this flat-lined franchise? Is it off with Rex Ryan's vocational head? Or do we blame the GM who didn't see fit to spend $20 million in cap space?
The Monday Night contest between the New York Giants and Indianapolis Colts figured to be a tough test for the host team. But after Indy was thrashed to the tune of 51 points against the Pittsburgh Steelers, the visiting Colts may have gotten a loud wake-up call.
The answer to that question is of course yes, but New York fans are probably wondering just how much more suffering is awaiting them.
Smith admitted he was frustrated to learn he was no longer the Jets' starting quarterback. But he wasn't surprised. He also didn't have much of a reaction: "I just went on with my day."
Seven straight losses. The remainder of the season is meaningless. Why even debate the merits of who is the better quarterback between Geno Smith and Michael Vick?
The New York Giants have a philosophy of not negotiating contracts during the season. Why this unwritten rule remains in place is anyone's guess. But after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers extended defensive lineman Gerald McCoy this week, the Giants ought to get to work on a Jason Pierre-Paul extension, before it's too late.
Whether it was Geno Smith or Michael Vick, it really didn't matter much on a mistake-filled day for the Jets. "Let me tell you," coach Rex Ryan said, "I'm getting sick and tired of the losing."
It's been 40 years since the Cardinals got off to such a good start. They didn't even live in Arizona back then.
Kyle Orton threw four touchdown passes and the Buffalo Bills forced the New York Jets into six turnovers - three each by Geno Smith and Michael Vick - in a 43-23 rout Sunday.
The Buffalo Bills are in the AFC East race riding their best start in three years, though they'll have a much different look offensively with their once-dangerous backfield tandem out of action.
