Continue reading →: Jacksonville Jaguars: 2013 Week 5 NFL Power Rankings (#32)
Last week: 32 Record 0-4 The Jaguars have been so bad through 4 games that I don’t think the word horrendous is even strong enough. They’ve been outscored 129 to 31 and even that figure is inflated by garbage time. If the Seahawks, against whom they scored 17 of their…

Continue reading →: Arizona Cardinals trade OT Levi Brown to the Pittsburgh Steelers
Trade for Steelers: The Steelers clearly need left tackle help. 2012 2nd round pick Mike Adams is bombing in his first chance as a full-time starter. Only Atlanta’s tackles, Sam Baker and Lamar Holmes, have graded out worse than Adams on ProFootballFocus this season. However, Brown isn’t a significant upgrade.…

Continue reading →: Jacksonville Jaguars trade OT Eugene Monroe to the Baltimore Ravens
Trade for Jaguars: The Jaguars just sold a franchise left tackle for pennies on the dollar (multiple 3rd day picks). Ordinarily, that’s an awful deal, but Monroe was heading into free agency this off-season and the Jaguars are so awful. It’s totally believable that they knew they wouldn’t be able…

Jacksonville Jaguars (0-4) at St. Louis Rams (1-3) The Jaguars are +12 here in St. Louis. No one is THAT bad right? Well, so far, the Jaguars have been THAT bad. They have been beyond horrendous offensively, converting just 58% of 1st and 10s for a subsequent set of first…

New Orleans Saints (4-0) at Chicago Bears (3-1) The Saints and Dolphins both went into Monday Night’s game at 3-0, after going 7-9 last season, but at the end of the day, it was the Saints who proved they were for real, while the Dolphins looked like a team that…

Carolina Panthers (1-2) at Arizona Cardinals (2-2) Carolina was one of my biggest, if not my biggest sleeper coming into the season. I had them winning 12 games and the NFC South. They finished last season playing very good defense, allowing 21.2 points per game in the final 12 games…

Buffalo Bills (2-2) at Cleveland Browns (2-2) The Browns have somehow vaulted to the top of the AFC North two weeks after losing Brandon Weeden to injury and trading Trent Richardson to the Colts. While it’s not a surprise that they wouldn’t miss Brandon Weeden that much, I don’t think…

TE Heath Miller (Pittsburgh) Percent owned (ESPN): 24.4% After returning in limited fashion week 3, Miller played essentially the whole game week 4, catching 6 passes for 70 yards. Ben Roethlisberger is more comfortable throwing to him than anyone else and he had a 71/816/8 line in 15 games in…

New York Jets (2-1) at Tennessee Titans (2-1) The Titans are for real as a playoff contender. I actually had them in the playoffs last year, but I might have been a year early. I didn’t put them in the playoffs this year, but that looks like a complete oversight…
