Glen Coffee: Brew or Bust ??

Posted: 9th July 2010 by Steve Butler in NFL
49ers rookie second string RB Glen Coffee disappointed 49ers fans last year with 2.7 yards per carry. I have heard a number of fans dismissing him as a bust already. After leading the preseason in rushing with 249 yards and a 5.9 yards per carry average, I think he left us expecting more from him as someone who could capably give Frank Gore a breather. Is he a bust? Did he ...

Posted: 9th July 2010 by Nick Caron in NFL
It’s no surprise that Detroit Lions rookie running back Jahvid Best is getting some high praise from experts around the league. After an excellent college career at Cal where he averaged over 7.0 yards per carry while also making an impact in the passing game and the return game, Best was considered one of the top backs in the 2010 draft class. His elusive running style and speed have him getting ...

AFC West Dynasty Capsule: San Diego Chargers

Posted: 9th July 2010 by Dynasty League Football in NFL
The Chargers have been both a perennial favorite and a perennial disappointment in the NFL over the past few years. Luckily for dynasty fantasy football owners, many of the Chargers players' performances have been much more fruitful than the team’s playoff success. Countless dynasty owners have won titles led by such stars as Philip Rivers, Antonio Gates, and LaDainian Tomlinson the past few seasons, while the Chargers themselves have yet to win the ...
This isn't meant to be a diatribe against the Miami Heat or Lebron James.  Such venom is apparently reserved for plenty of others.  In fact I commend Pat Riley and the Miami Heat for putting together an unthinkable trio of talent.  However, there is one issue that should be cleared up for King James and his court– or is it Wade County and its municipalities? Miami is the home of the National ...

10 Impact Players For the Carolina Panthers’ 2010 Season

Posted: 9th July 2010 by Steve Butler in NFL
Julius Peppers was shipped to Chicago, Jake Delhomme was considered expendable, and Thomas Davis suffered the second serious knee injury of his career. The 2010 First round draft pick was traded to SF to acquire DE Everette Brown, and at this point it looks as if SF was on the good end of that deal. All that being said, the Carolina Panthers came away with a lot of good value ...

Posted: 9th July 2010 by Jack Jones in NFL
The Baltimore Ravens enter their third year under head coach John Harbaugh, and it looks as though this team is primed to make a big-time run at the Super Bowl. The Ravens earned a wild-card spot for the second straight season after going 9-7, but after shocking the Patriots in the first round, the Ravens were no match for Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts, losing 20-3 in the divisional round. The ...
As the pundits make their previews of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the 2010 season, the common thought among them is the Buccaneers are in trouble with their running game. With Carnell Williams' rebuilt knees, Derrick Ward's decline, Clifton Smith's fumblitis, and Earnest Graham moonlighting as a fullback, Tampa Bay lacks a true playmaker at the halfback position. Enter Kareem Huggins. Who, you ask? Kareem was handpicked by coach Raheem Morris from his ...

The Bills spent a long time trying to find a new head coach this offseason and wound up with Chan Gailey.
