2019 Weekly Picks
The big day is finally here!
Jeff here: Steven and I are having a blast in Vegas… at least I am. He is down big at the tables and seems to have shot his wad for that type of play. Then Texas got embarrased at home last night as we were surrounded by hundreds of OSU fans at the Hard Rock. He is…
Steelers 28, Dolphins 17 – FINAL
Looks like Daunte Culpepper will have to start looking over his shoulder pretty quick. Culpepper threw two INTs on back to back throws, the final one, a 42 yd interception return for a TD by Joey Porter put the nail in the coffin. That pick for a TD came on the heels…
Steelers Fumble at the 1-yard line…

Jeff here: Just 10 minutes into NBC’s opening night broadcast and I am already mad. I thought ABC went too far with their ridiculously over-produced and over-hyped production. That same crew (Al & John were not the only part of the ABC crew brought over), seems feel…
Welcome to In Game Blogging
Steven here: Jeff and I are going to try something new tonight. As we sit here and watch the game, we will occasionally post a blog with our thoughts about the game, a play, a call or anything that is bugging us. So join in for the new NFL Rants and Raves In Game…
NFL Rants and Raves Blog is BACK!!!
I took a break from writing in the blog since the end of last year’s football season, but boy, did I miss it. So much to say and no place to say it, except for on the show! With football upon us and the 2006 season ready to start this Thursday, no better time to start…
