September 8, 2010 Ryan Berenz

The 2010 NFL regular season kicks off on Thursday, Sept. 9 at 8:30pm ET with a prime-time game on NBC and what better way to kick off the 2010 NFL regular season than with a rematch of one of last season’s most thrilling playoff games? When the Minnesota Vikings and New Orleans Saints played in January for the NFC championship, the Vikings were driving late in regulation with a chance to win when quarterback Brett Favre threw an interception that sent the game to overtime. The Saints scored a field goal on their first overtime possession to send them to […]

“Hard Knocks: Training Camp With the New York Jets” premieres Aug. 11 on HBO

August 10, 2010 Ryan Berenz

To say that there’s buzz about the New York Jets is an understatement. No, that buzz is more like the deafening roar of a Boeing going throttle-open down the LaGuardia runway. The Jets are coming off a loss to Indianapolis in the AFC Championship, and they’re a popular preseason favorite to win the AFC — if not more — this season. Their confident and colorful head coach, Rex Ryan, has the Jets throwing their weight around the league (though Ryan lost weight himself, thanks to offseason lap-band surgery). Their quarterback, Mark Sanchez, enters his second season and is already an […]

NFL preseason kicks off Aug. 8 on NBC

August 6, 2010 Ryan Berenz

(Click here for the 2011 NFL Preseason TV Schedule) I think I’m about ready to shovel the dirt on my favorite MLB team, but I’m not quite ready for football yet. And I probably won’t be ready until the first week of September. There’s almost nothing in the NFL preseason that gets me fired up for the regular season. Preseason games don’t count for anything, and usually I’m happy to just get through it injury-free. Teams that look like they’re actually trying to win preseason games annoy me. I’m fine with an 18-game regular season so long as they get […]
