The mighty and undefeated No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide football program came calling to the Home of the 12th Man — the Texas A&M Aggies’ stomping ground — this past Saturday night. Bama’s evening ended with a big fat “L” inside the uber-friendly confines of Kyle Field in College Station, TX. Unranked after unfortunate and […]
I described Minnesota Vikings’ rookie wide receiver Justin Jamal “Jets” Jefferson a few weeks ago as underrated. That’s turned out to be an understatement after he’s now set the all-time rookie receiving yards mark. Reaching the pinnacle of glory collegiately with a 2020 CFP National Championship as a member of the fearsome LSU Tigers in […]
Quarterback Josh Allen and wide receiver Stefon Diggs are the Buffalo Bills’ preeminent duo. With their first AFC East crown since 1995, Allen and Diggs are helping Buffalo’s franchise circle the wagons once again. Currently 12-3 with one remaining regular-season game against their divisional rival Miami Dolphins at home in Orchard Park, NY, on Sunday, […]
Underrated. Minnesota Vikings’ wide receiver Justin Jefferson flew slightly under the radar amongst both NFL scouts and franchises leading up to the 2020 NFL Draft. The fifth WR selected in April’s draft and No. 22-overall, Mr. Jefferson isn’t playing like it. He’s suiting up and going to work as if he was the first wideout […]
Fear. That’s the primary feeling Washington Football Team rookie defensive end Chase Young instills in the minds of opposing NFL offenses on game day. Left tackles, right tackles, and offensive linemen alike should fear Mr. Young. Any skill player near the line of scrimmage should as well. The 21-year-old, standing 6-foot-5 and weighing 265 pounds, […]
Alexander (Alex) Douglas Smith is in the midst of one of the most extraordinary comebacks in sports history. The Washington Football Team’s starting quarterback suffered a horrific right leg injury against the Houston Texans on November 18, 2018. Alex Smith was taken down on a sack by Texans’ defenders J.J. Watt and Kareem Jackson. Not […]
Derrick Lamar “King Henry” Jr. is rolling down the railroad tracks towards a 2,000-yard 2020-21 NFL season. Already an MVP candidate leading the league with 1,257 rushing yards, the runaway locomotive of a running back for the Tennessee Titans (8-3) looks like an unstoppable force. Consistently churning the butter week after week, Henry has accumulated […]
Texas A&M Aggies’ football introduced me to sports when I was eight years old. A small black and white Zenith television in my parents’ kitchen in Colorado Springs, CO, rendered me transfixed on the Aggies playing in the Cotton Bowl on a New Year’s Day. The smell and taste of Thanksgiving Day have never been […]
Kyler Cole Murray deserves an encore. In my piece about the Arizona Cardinals’ quarterback a month ago, I shined the brightest of spotlights on the 2018 Heisman Trophy winner from Bedford, TX. A few days after I wrote the aforementioned article, Mr. Murray and the Cardinals took center stage on Sunday Night Football against their […]
Minnesota Vikings’ running back Dalvin “Purple Blur” Cook is a legitimate NFL MVP candidate. If you have a better nickname than the one I just coined him, be my guest to chime in. After a horrendous 1-5 start, the Vikes (3-5) now find themselves at the halfway point of their 2020 regular-season. Mr. Cook has […]
