"Black Monday" hits the NFL a little hard. Arizona Cardinals fired Ken Whisenhunt as well as the general manager, Rod Graves. We can't forget how these two led the team to an almost Super Bowl win. Not figuring out the quarterback situation or even the offense for that matter probably did not help their cases. Thinking about how New England lost to this not-so-great team is still so frustrating. Buffalo Bills fired Coach Chan Gailey. It's still unclear if the Bills' general manager will be fired as well. Buddy Nix better be saying some prayers. The past three seasons haven't been the greatest for the Bills. Norv Turner and the general manager A.J Smith was let go as well from the San Diego Chargers. Many knew Sunday after a loss in Philadelphia that coach Andy Reid is out as head coach. Maybe he'll make an appearance for San Diego. Lovie Smith of the Chicago Bears was axed. Reports claim that general manager, Phil Emery will hire his own man for the job. Kansas City Chiefs fired coach Romeo Crennel. It's also unclear if the general manager Scott Pioli will still have a job. Cleveland Browns let both coach Pat Shurmur and Tom Heckert go. I explained a little bit of this in a past post "Heading into Week 17." Unfortunately, Rex Ryan is still the head coach for the New York Jets but general manager, Mike Tannebaum was let go. There are still some coaches and general managers around the NFL that still are awaiting their fate with the league going into 2013 season.
New England succeeded Sunday with clinching the 2nd seed in the AFC as well as the first-round bye. Houston's loss to the Colts' helped with making that happen for the Patriots. Texans had to lose in order to drop to the 3rd seed and New England had to win against the Dolphins to clinch the 2nd seed and the bye. The Patriots succeeded by winning 28-0. Way to go fellas! Proud to be a Patriots fan!
Denver Broncos clinched the 1st seed and the first-round bye with their win against Kansas City yesterday 38-3. I love seeing Peyton Manning doing so well in Denver. If New England cannot perform well enough to throw us into the Super Bowl, I would rather see Denver than any other potentials in the AFC. Just saying.
Rookie quarterback, Robert Griffin III led the Washington Redskins to a victory against Homo Romo and the Dallas Cowboys. The win launches the Redskins into the playoffs. A lot of credit also goes to Alfred Morris. He managed to run for 200 yards and three touchdowns.
I would love to see RG3 playing in the Super Bowl his first season with the NFL. He definitely needs to be Rookie of the Year with everything he has brought to the Redskins since game one.
