An April Discussion Of The NFC South Landscape
via www.sportable.com Some would say it's way too early to look at how the NFC South may shake out this season. Some would also say it's too early to start drinking, but my good friend Jack Daniels and I would respectfully disagree. So there. Rather than do a comprehensive breakdown, though,...
News On The Wing: February 17 Edition
News is power! With that in mind, I'm turning on my news-producing machine and cranking out this week's News on the Wing. As with our first post just last week, we'll try to hit a little bit of Falcons news, a little bit of NFC South news and perhaps a little general NFL news if we have...
Falcons and Saints Recap: Losing Ain't Easy
There's a phenomenon preculiar to the frozen north that I think is particularly relevant here. Here in New England, the first day of snowfall is an auspicious occasion. People like me smile and enjoy the snow, while people not like me totally friggin' forget how to drive. The mere sight of a...
Falcons vs. Saints: Cheers For An August Autumn
The Falcons have triumphed. At every turn, the Falcons have met a new obstacle. They've been asked to win more than they did last year, and they have. They've been asked to beat a quality team, and instead they beat two. They've been asked to beat a division rival, and they smoked them. They have...
The Saints Will Hurt Against Falcons Without Reggie Bush
The Falcons are going to have a tough time against the Saints this weekend. I don't wish to alarm you, but they have a few guys over there who are very good at playing "offense." They might even "score" a few "touchdowns" on us. "Oh no." Still, it's heartening to hear that Reggie Bush won't be at...

Preseason Game #3: Saints v. Bengals
Use this gameday thread for discussions of tonight's Saints-Bengals preseason game.Part I: Even though I was there, my friend Bud Light made sure I forgot what happened.Nine months ago -- almost to the day -- the Saints and Bengals met in New Orleans, a week 9 contest that saw Drew Brees throw for...
Drew's Number Two!
This week, the McPaper released its list of the highest-earning NFL players in 2006, along with its updated NFL salary database. NFL salary information always runs a season behind, so we're just now finding out how each player fared; from the looks of it, Drew Brees had a great 2006 in just about...
F.Y.I., You SHOULD Care About This
I have nothing against ESPN per se, I just think they have some dumb ideas. For example, instead of showing another miniseries about--and here's the utimate rub--the Yankees (as if they don't get enough face-time), why doesn't ESPN show something that people will actually want to watch. Like, say,...
It's time to Talk Backup Quarterbacks
By far, the Saints' biggest weakness is the lack of an experienced backup quarterback. Drew Brees is solidly in the top-5 in the league at his position. Assuming he is healthy, he will put up around 25 touchdowns, while the offense puts up around 400 points--25 per game. But if Brees goes down, the...
