The worst nightmare imaginable for Indianapolis Colts fans has come true with quarterback Peyton Manning unable to play for an extended period. I don’t think we will see him back in a Colts uniform this season. There’s a two to three-month timetable being thrown around, but I don’t see that happening. The Colts will be ou [...]

2011 Written by BeltwayBoy

Wow! Look at how different the NFL was back in the old days before Mel Kiper Jr. and ESPN arrived on the scene. The picture makes me think of a middle school pep rally. The guy on the right almost looks like Chris Cooley to me, lol. The NFL has come a long way since that era! Amplify’d from blog.redskins.com This picture here fi [...]

Well the first round of the 2011 NFL Draft has come and gone with some questionable moves by some teams, but the Washington Redskins aren’t one of them. The Redskins showed some big time restraint and traded their #10 pick to the Jacksonville Jaguars in exchange for their #16 pick in the first round and the Jags #49 pick in the second r [...]

Last Minute Thoughts On The NFL Draft...

Apr28
2011 Written by BeltwayBoy

Well today is the big day! The NFL Draft is scheduled to start about eight hours from now. This has been a very unusual NFL offseason so far because of the labor situation and no free agency. So the only thing besides the labor news for NFL fans to talk about has been the NFL Draft. To be perfectly honest I’m glad it’s here becau [...]

Alabama running back Mark Ingram reminds me of another running back that also wore a #22 jersey, Emmitt Smith. These guys are built almost identical and their running style is the same. I’m not saying that Ingram will be the next Emmitt Smith and have a hall of fame NFL career because that’s unfair to both guys. I just can’t [...]

2011 Written by BeltwayBoy

Is the NFL lockout really over or will the NFL owners win their appeal of Judge Susan Nelson’s decision to lift the lockout? I hope the nightmare is finally over and the league can get back to a normal offseason routine, but I’m not celebrating the judge’s ruling just yet. The owners are doing everything in their power to k [...]

The NFL Draft is quickly approaching and I just don’t feel excited about it this year. Are you excited about the NFL draft? I’m sure my lack of interest is because of the ongoing labor lockout and there has been no free agency for us to all debate. I’m hoping I can get myself excited, but I just can’t get into it like [...]

Tom Brady Talking About NFL Draft

2011 Written by BeltwayBoy

Why are so many people giving Tom Brady a hard time for getting emotional in this video? The guy was just sharing the heartbreak he went through on draft day and there’s nothing wrong with that. He was under the impression he was going to be picked higher and the agony of that dreaded “Draft Day Wait” that plays out on a ye [...]

Redskins Should Draft Kicker Alex Hen...

2011 Written by BeltwayBoy

The Washington Redskins have needs all over, but I never hear anyone mention a kicker as one of those needs and it surprises me. I think our current kicker Graham Gano must GO! He missed an NFL high 11 kicks during the 2010 season and the team lost 5 games by 3 points or less. Gano had misses in 4 of those 5 games, you do the math. He does ha [...]

Andrew Luck Andrew Luck has decided to stay in school and I can’t say I blame him. Would you want to be going to the Carolina Panthers? This throws a wrinkle into the upcoming NFL Draft because Luck was going to be the first pick of the Panthers. Now will Carolina stay in the #1 slot and take another QB or address another need.
