The Rams will be without guard Jacob Bell for all of the OTAs and minicamps as he recently had he knee “scoped” and will be out 4 – 6 weeks. I wish this was addressed earlier in the offseason, but like Steven Jackson’s surgery, they were likely hoping rest would heal it and when it [...]

When it comes to the NFL and Brian Cushing, he knew what he was doing
When it comes to Texans LB Brian Cushing, I can understand the whole reasoning behind why they would consider stripping him of his Defensive Rookie of the Year Award but why wasn’t he busted last year? Players know the rules, plain and simple. So why is it a surprise when you get something taken away [...]
Steelers QB Roethlisberger not cleared by the league to practice
Despite getting some counseling out of the way, the NFL has yet to clear Ben Roethlisberger to practice with his team. This isn’t much of a surprise, and I am not all that sure how much this is hurting the team, as it’s good that guys like Dennis Dixon and Byron Leftwich get time to [...]

Granted, Matt Leinart’s play at quarterback is important, but the Cards don’t necessarily need Leinart to play too far above average to win. The defense, however, particularly the secondary, must be at the top of its [...]
What team had the best offseason in the NFC North?
May 17th, 2010 
Jeff Fisher 
Posted in Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings Not surprisingly, the teams that needed to make the most headway in the NFC North – the Bears and Lions – have been the most aggressive since their epic showdown in the’09 season finale. Will those moves translate into Ws for either team in 2010? I’m guessing one big, half-enthusiastic YES. This could be the [...]
NFL Gridiron Gab sits down with Vikings LB Erin Henderson
Erin Henderson was kind enough to take some time and answer a few questions for all of us fans here on the Sports Gab Network with Vikings Gab writer Mike Halldorson. Mike: How are you spending the offseason? Any big vacations? What types of training do you do? Are you training with any other NFL players? Erin: [...]
