Seattle Seahawks: I ‘ate you, Butler!

4 Yards. 4 yards and Malcolm Butler. That was all that stood between the Seattle Seahawks and 2015 being the year they embarked on a quest for history and three consecutive SuperBowl titles. As it transpired, those 4 yards and the failure to convert on that now infamous conclusion to...

2015/16 NFL Divisional Round: Sunday

I’m finishing this up having just watched the game of the year (in my opinion). If any of these games match up to the Packers vs. Cards game we’re in for a treat! Anyway time once again to take a look at a few key factors that could affect Sunday’s...

NFL Pre-Season Review

Ha! I got you. You think this is going to be me moaning about Russell Wilson…didn’t you? In actual fact I thought I would take this opportunity to look at the flip side of my thoughts on the Seahawks QB. After all they are in a Super bowl.

Bold (and some not so bold) Predictions

Here at Gridiron Gentlemen we have a history of making some bold predictions…well some predictions. Anyway I thought I would make a note of some of the more interesting predictions we have made.

Russell Wilson and 31 other QBs
