There is about as big a difference between the AFC and the NFC that we’ve seen in recent years. The NFC is fighting it out for potential playoff spots, where as the AFC (bar a couple of obvious competitors) seems to be falling over themselves to be completely irrelevant. Let’s...
Right folks, we’re 11 games in and it’s time to start taking this a little seriously. No more teams at no. 32 because they repeatedly put a QB I happen to quite like in harm’s way. Nope my no. 32 team is genuinely the team I think is the worst...
We’re fast closing in on the business end of the 2017 season and the windows are beginning to close for some teams looking to extend their activities beyond Week 17. Each week through to the end of the season, we’ll take a look at how things stand, and who is on...
It’s time for this week’s power rankings and it feels like we’re beginning to find out what’s what in the crazy world of the NFL. It only took 9 weeks…

As we enter the penultimate weekend that will ultimately decide who we will be merrily watching on the 2nd of February, I thought it was time to sing the praises of a position oft over looked in highlights, the kicker. Such a role they have played this season that on...
It is fair to say that one of the most exciting aspects of this weekend’s matchups will be the battle between the QB’s. Manning vs. Brady is a scrap we all look forward to and seeing the young guns, Kaepernick & Wilson duke it out promises to offer a QB...
I probably should have put some money on some teams making the playoffs in week 8. For just after the midseason point I wrote a post (on the 31st of October, found here) using teams w – l record to date to predict the likely outcome at the end of...
