Black Monday

Coaching Vacancies

Miami Dolphins: The Dolphins seem to be ready for a complete overhaul of their roster, and they unlikely to retain Dan Campbell as their head coach. They are in search of a new coach and a new general manager after a really disappointing season.

Tennessee Titans: The Titans fired Ken Whisenhunt in the middle of the season, and Mike Mularkey was named the interim head coach. Chip Kelly might be a good option with Marcus Mariota at quarterback, but the organization is keeping their options open for a new head coach and genral manager.

Philadelphia Eagles: Chip Kelly (the coach and GM) was fired after Week 16 of the regular season mainly because none of the players who they signed in the offseason played well, and their offense was stopped by opposing defenses. The franchise was not headed in the right direction and are now looking for a new coach and general manager.

Cleveland Browns: This organization is going nowhere. Their quarterback does not show up to games. They don't play good defense. I think they're lucky to even win three games. Once the season ended, their owner fired head coach Mike Pettine and general manager Ray Farmar who haven't done anything great in two seasons together. They are already conducting a couple of interviews this week, and they must hit the buzzer with their next hire.

San Francisco 49ers: One and done? This team needs a lot of improvements, and it starts with a better head coach. Jim Tomsula looked like an amateur in the league, and didn't really know what to do in critical situations at times. Although, he didn't do that bad considering they lost many key pieces last offseason. Jed York just decided to go on a different path, not with Tomsula as head coach.

New York Giants: Tom Coughlin has certainly had one of the finest coaching careers in the history of coaching careers, and he has decided to resign, and probably retire, as the coach of the Giants. Eli Manning is going to have to finally work with a different coach, and the owners plan to bring in someone who can lead the Giants on another playoff run.

Teams Still Undecided:
  • Chuck Pagano (Indianapolis Colts)
  • Sean Payton (New Orlean Saints)
  • Jim Caldwell (Detroit Lions)
Safe:
  • Mike McCoy (San Diego Chargers)
  • Jeff Fisher (St. Louis Rams)
  • Gus Bradley (Jacksonville Jaguars)
  • Jason Garett (Dallas Cowboys)

Why the Patriots Won Super Bowl 51

Pats Win Over Falcons 34-28 in OT It was a tale of two halves. In the first half, the Patriots could not get anything going on the offensive side of the ball. In the second half, the Falcons could not get anything going. Belichick and Brady pulled off some more magic and won their fifth Super Bowl together. In the second half, it seemed as though the game was getting away from the Atlanta Falcons, and their youth caught up to them. I believe that this game should have definitely been won by the Falcons, but the game slipped away from them. There are many reasons to explain what happened, including the fact that the Falcons did not run the football to milk down the clock in the second half, they turned the ball over when it was not necessary, they did not play as tough and physical on defense and seemed gassed, and even just because Tom Brady and the rest of his offense played a hell of a game. In my opinion, though, the real reason why the Patriots won, is because of t...

Week 14 Power Rankings

Cowboys on a Roll, Panthers Drop Not many people expected the Dallas Cowboys to top the New Orleans Saints on Thursday Night Football during Week 13. The Saints came into the game winning ten straight, while the Cowboys were a "mediocre" team in the midst of a three-game winning streak. The Cowboys won 13-10 and will rise in the week's rankings. In other important games, the Chicago Bears lost a shocker to the New York Giants, Lamar Jackson won his third straight game for the Baltimore Ravens against the Atlanta Falcons, the Houston Texans won their ninth straight game, and the Los Angeles Chargers won a close one against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Carolina Panthers are quickly fading in the wild-card race, and have lost four straight games. Here are my rankings heading into Week 14: Los Angeles Rams (11-1) Kansas City Chiefs (10-2) New Orleans Saints (10-2) Los Angeles Chargers (9-3) New England Patriots (9-3) Houston Texans (9-3) Pittsburgh Steelers (...

Week 7 Power Rankings

Chiefs Suffer First Loss; Ravens Shut Out Titans The New England Patriots were able to defeat the Kansas City Chiefs by three points at home, Aaron Rodgers and the Packers came back to avoid an upset to the 49ers, the Steelers defeated the Bengals, and the Dolphins took down the Bears at the end of overtime. There were some unexpected wins and losses, as well as some close games, in Week 6. The Dallas Cowboys blew out the Jacksonville Jaguars and their top-notch defense, 40-7. It is been hard to figure out which teams are "contenders" and which are "pretenders" this season. It is especially difficult to rank the middle of the pack teams. Here are my power rankings heading into Week 7: Los Angeles Rams (6-0) New Orleans Saints (4-1) Kansas City Chiefs (5-1) New England Patriots (4-2) Los Angeles Chargers (4-2) Pittsburgh Steelers (3-2-1) Minnesota Vikings (3-2-1) Baltimore Ravens (4-2) Cincinnati Bengals (4-2) Carolina Panthers (3-2) Green Bay P...
