Does Mike Pettine fit with the Browns?

Pettine, the current roster, and what the team needs to do in the offseason to be successful. by Nicholas Cicale (@nickcicale) As a Jets fan I know a bit about new Browns Head Coach Mike Pettine.  He came to the Jets as defensive coordinator under Rex Ryan in New York, the Jets went to twoContinue reading “Does Mike Pettine fit with the Browns?”

NFL End of the Year Power Rankings

I know I haven’t posted one of these in a while but I figured I’ll do one for the end of the season.  These are the best teams in the league right now, taking into account injuries and momentum (but not a lack of a head coach in some situations).  Most of my opinions areContinue reading “NFL End of the Year Power Rankings”

2013 Week 9 Deli Poll and Heisman Watch

I’m really happy that FSU will get another chance to prove themselves this week, but unless Oregon loses to Stanford I really don’t see them as number 2 in my rankings any time soon.  Miami is a really weak undefeated team, and with VT looking like their usual selfs and Florida MIA, they have littleContinue reading “2013 Week 9 Deli Poll and Heisman Watch”

Nick Aliotti’s ridiculous post game comments and the WEEK 8 DELI POLL

After last week’s college football game between Oregon and Washington State, Oregon‘s defensive coordinator Nick Aliotti criticized opposing head coach Mike Leach for running up the score, and passing the ball in the fourth quarter, even though Oregon won the game in a lopsided 63-38 victory, where their own offense score 14 fourth quarter points.Continue reading “Nick Aliotti’s ridiculous post game comments and the WEEK 8 DELI POLL”

NFL POWER RANKING: WEEK 4

After three weeks, a team’s record doesn’t mean much.   Only three teams, the Falcons, Cardinals, and Texans, started 2012 3-0.  The Cardinals, having just beat the 2-1 Eagles, only won 2 games out of their remaining 13.  Patriots were 1-2, and had lost to the Cardinals and the Ravens, as were the Packers, Broncos, andContinue reading “NFL POWER RANKING: WEEK 4”

DELI POLL: WEEK 4 TOP 25 AND HEISMAN WATCH

Not too many changes here this week.  With the news that Florida’s starting QB will be out for the season, I was tempted to drop them from the rankings, but there’s actually a chance that their offense is better off this way.  ASU got hammered by Stanford, and even though I moved them down, itContinue reading “DELI POLL: WEEK 4 TOP 25 AND HEISMAN WATCH”

Deli Poll: Week 3 Top 25

I got one of my 2 calls right this week.  Texas Tech won against TCU, but Alabama won on the road against A&M.  I still think that A&M is one of the only teams in the country that can beat Bama and they’re still the 2nd best team in the SEC, but what this gameContinue reading “Deli Poll: Week 3 Top 25”
