SEAHAWKS VS VIKINGS ON MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL

SEAHAWKS VS VIKINGS ON MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL

Posted by | Dec 10, 2018 | , | 0 |

By Tony Softli Sunday’s NFL games were extremely entertaining from a fans perspective with last second wins, overtime games, comeback victories and several defensive chess matches that kept me watching ALL DAY!  Below are some quick notes from the games I watched.  CRAZY GOOD! Cleveland Brown’s QB Baker Mayfield and teammates took Carolina Panthers to the wood shed for their fifth straight loss.  Despite another solid performance from Panthers All-Purpose back Christain McCaffrey, Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry was too much! Oakland Raiders finally gave the Black Hole something to cheer about, with a WIN over the Pittsburgh Steelers. ...

But the storyline was not all about the Husky defense, Utah came ready to play as well.  I sat on my couch watching two college teams trading punches while playing a defensive chess match...

NFL ROOKIE QUARTERBACKS THROWN IN THE FIRE

Posted by | Sep 6, 2018 | | 0 |

By Tony Softli Over the years their has been a lot of debate when it comes to playing rookie quarterbacks.  Like baskin and robins who has 32 flavors, each NFL club has their own philosophy when it comes to starting their young signal caller.  Teams that draft a quarterback high in round one, most of the time are pressured by ownership to play them early, those that are drafted later hold the clip board while a veteran quarterback bridges the gap while young guns develop.   Former USC Trojan Sam Darnold the Jets rookie quarterback and number three pick overall...
