The regular season is officially over, and I must admit, I'm kinda sad.....

end of regular season means post season which means Pro Bowl and Super Bowl which THEN means the season is over before we know it. That alone has me sad that the end is near. That being said, football still played this past weekend. So let's discuss, shall we? I'm getting all sentimental and whatnot.....

Congrats to my Baltimore Ravens for make the playoffs for the 2nd year in a row. My heart has been broken pretty much this whole season, and yet we still found a way to make it to the dance. Check out my post on Gridiron Gals about our win over the Oakland Raiders. I'm so proud of my guys.

*extra point* Hiram Eugene got OWNED!!!


Most people think that the NY Jets were given a pass for the playoffs, since both Indy and Cincy sat their starters for much of the game. And while that point is very well noted, lets be clear. Each team has the key to their own destiny. So if you are the Texans, Broncos, Steelers, Dolphins and Jaguars you can't be but so mad. You all have lost to teams that you probably should have blown out. Blame no one but yourselves for not getting the wins and losses in your favor.

*extra point* The Jets shouldn't be in the playoffs though. I'm just saying.... hey, everyone has a Rick James moment (see Dave Chappelle for clarification). This was mine.

Congrats to Titans Chris Johnson for getting 2,000 rushing yards, the 6th player to ever accomplish such a feat.

Johnson also broke Marshall Faulk's NFL record of yards from scrimmage, with 2,509. I have said it before and I'll say it again. I like Adrian Peterson and all, but I'll take CJ any day of the week. Not only can Johnson make plays but he doesn't suffer from fumblitis.

Black Monday has come and as we expected, Danny Boy kicked Jim Zorn to the curb while en route to woo Mike Shanahan and family to get to town. I feel bad for Zorn, everything that went down was not all his fault. His offensive line is patchwork at best, he lost his best player on offense in Chris Cooley, his QB looks like a dear in headlights at times, and he had the laziest $100 million dollar man in Fat Albert, bad mouthing him because HE was late. He was destined to lose. And until Snyder lets someone take over the executive football duties and just sit in an owners box, I'm not sure if Jesus Christ himself could help. Good luck Shanahan. At least you'll get paid *shrugs*


*extra point* Bears fans, be patient with Lovie Smith. I know you expected big things this season. But any Broncos fan could have warned you about Cutler. Lovie deserves one last chance, and a couple of key players, and all of this will be laughable in the future.

What in the world is up with the G-Men the past 2 weeks?!

In 2 weeks alone they have given up 85 points, 41 of them to a struggling Panthers team. I know the Giants have since fired their defensive coordinator as a result, but it will be interesting to see what they do during free agency and /or the draft, to help with the problems on defense.



DeSean Jackson needs to get the STFU Award of the week.

Now you guys and gals know that I love Jackson, I think he's a dynamic player. But then Jackson turned around said the following on Twitter Sunday night,

"Got smashed by them cowboys 2daaaaaay sheeeeesh its all good we gonna sting they ass next week lil buddy..."
