DON’T UNDERESTIMATE AGAIN

BY MARK HALPERN After Last week’s romping of the New York Giants, the Cowboys will move on to take on another weak opponent in the Carolina Panthers, but just because a team is 1-8 doesn’t mean they can’t surprise you like many a team does because anyone can win on any given Sunday.          The CowboysContinue reading “DON’T UNDERESTIMATE AGAIN”

Erasing The Narrative

By Mike Rifkin The Miami Dolphins entered their bye week with a record of 6-3 and in first place in the AFC East. But people only like to talk about how they’ve only beaten bad teams and struggled against great ones. The Dolphins’ six wins are against the Chargers, Patriots (2x), Broncos, Giants, and Panthers.Continue reading “Erasing The Narrative”

IT’S A TRAP GAME

BY MARK HALPERN      Throughout history, we have seen some amazing things happen from last-minute 60+ yard field goals, Hail Mary 65+ yards for a TD and the win, Interception return for a touchdown in the waning seconds, or even just a plain old upset. For the Detroit Lions this weekend, this game should be aContinue reading “IT’S A TRAP GAME”

A FIGHT TO THE VERY END

By Mark Halpern    This past weekend, the Detroit Lions played the most exciting game of the week when they faced off against the Chargers. I had said how crucial it would be for the Lions to come out victorious, and they did by three points.    This game meant a lot, not just for standings butContinue reading “A FIGHT TO THE VERY END”

That Was Fun

By Mark Halpern      So this past weekend, the Cowboys welcomed the Giants into AT&T stadium for the season’s second matchup. The Giants season is all but finished as they are on to their third QB of the season and possibly fourth by next weekend as the Cowboys obliterated the g-men 49-17.        The first meeting wasContinue reading “That Was Fun”

Lose, Lose Situation

By Mike Rifkin The Carolina Panthers lost 16-13 to the Chicago Bears on Thursday night. The loss drops the Panthers to 1-8 on the season, and that is not even the worst part about losing. If they had that pick, the Panthers would have the first overall pick in the draft this coming April. TheContinue reading “Lose, Lose Situation”

BRYANT IS COMING TO HELP! NO, NOT THAT ONE

BY Mark Halpern Last week, we saw the Cowboys go head-to-head with the NFC favorites to win the Super Bowl and should have won, but they didn’t, so it’s time to move on. Philly has control of the NFC East for now, but Dallas is fine at 5-3.   The offense is lacking in run offense,Continue reading “BRYANT IS COMING TO HELP! NO, NOT THAT ONE”

A MUST WIN FOR THE LIONS

By Mark Halpern     There are games where you can say you can lose and be all right. However, this game is more critical for the Lions because of what it can do for them in the standings.      This week, the Lions take on the Chargers, who have a talented offense, but their Defense needs toContinue reading “A MUST WIN FOR THE LIONS”

A LOSS IS A LOSS, BUT A BRIGHT SIDE SHOWED UP!

By Mark Halpern      No matter how you want to look at the result of this past Sunday’s game between the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles, the Cowboys lost. It wasn’t because of turnovers, it wasn’t because of injuries, and it has nothing to do with play; it came down to one call, and I willContinue reading “A LOSS IS A LOSS, BUT A BRIGHT SIDE SHOWED UP!”

Both teams are coming off divisional games, as the Dolphins defeated the Patriots and the Chiefs lost to the Broncos (yes, theContinue reading “German Showdown”
