Osi Umeniyora HAS been at practice!

I don’t know if we have reported this yet. But it turns out Osi Umeinyora has backed off…well at least showed up to voluntary off-season work out programs, which did not seem likely even a month or two ago. According to profootballtalk.com Osi Umenyiora was breathing fire last time we heard from him, saying he [...]

McNabb to Rams?

According to Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer, there is a trade currently on the table that would send QB Donovan McNabb to the Rams in exchange for the 33nd pick in April’s draft and free safety Oshiomogho Atogwe.

Kansas City Chiefs Draft Selection

Previous Selections: Rams Sam Bradford Lions-Nmdomkung Suh Buccaneers-Gerald McCoy Redskins-Russel Okung The Redskins was the first selection that was actually even close at all.

Jerry Reese on Sirius NFL Radio’s Movin’ The Chains:

“Well, you know, if you guys can remember, when I first got hired as GM, Michael Strahan came in and said ‘You know what?

As you know, the NFL passed a new rule for overtime. It will take effect, at first, in the playoffs. The rule is basically this: If you win the coin toss, in order to win on the first drive, you have to score a TD. If you get a field goal, or the opposing defense [...]

New OT rules

Via Espn.com “The NFL owners voted to change an element in the overtime rule, giving the team that loses the coin toss at the start of overtime to get a possession if the coin-toss winning team scores a field goal with the first possession. The proposal passed 28-4. As it is written, the rules change [...]
