If you’re the San Francisco 49ers, that answer is, “Noooooo-boooodddyyyyy.” Head coach Jim Harbaugh has the 49ers playing better than they have since the late 90s, and he ends their postgame meetings with this rallying cry: The 49ers and NY Giants played the game of the week in the NFC. The Giants, at 6-2, sat atop the NFC East, while the 49ers at 7-1 were atop the NFC West. It was a field goal kicking game in the first half, […]

10 Yard Fight – Jim Harbaugh Vs. Jim Schwartz
The Detroit Lions hosted the San Francisco 49ers in a big game for two teams who have been historically bad lately. The media was making plans for the Lions to beat the 49ers and be on their way for an undefeated vs. undefeated match-up on Thanksgiving Day with the Green Bay Packers. But the Lions couldn’t put away the 49ers on Sunday. However, the big story wasn’t the game or the outcome because of what happened after. After the game […]
10 Yard Fight – Just Win, Baby
On Saturday morning, I received word from the Twitter world that Raiders’ owner and NFL renegade Al Davis passed away. When I was younger and watching games on TV, I’d always see Davis in his luxury box watching the games. Of late, I didn’t see him often and when I did, he looked unlike the legendary figure with the slicked back black hair and white track suit. He just looked like an older person. All of our football heroes will […]
10 Yard Fight – Arian Foster Is Alive And Well
Fantasy Football seems to rule the world. Okay, maybe not the world. But I don’t know too many football fans who aren’t in some sort of Fantasy Football league. The NFL has to be chuckling because while it’s not the biggest reason that the NFL is the premier sports league in the United States, it’s definitely partially responsible. Gamblers are thinking, “Hey, what about us?” Players seem to act differently when it comes to Fantasy Football. Maurice Jones-Drew challenges all […]
10 Yard Fight – Uncle Dave
Before I get to the nuts and bolts of yesterday’s games, I wanted to lead with something that’s not necessarily about football, but I will tie it into football at the end. This week’s 10 Yard Fight is dedicated to my Uncle Dave. For the last seven Septembers, my rather large family has gathered together at my Uncle Dave’s favorite beach to celebrate his birthday. On the drive home from the beach yesterday, JJ, my youngest son asked me if […]
10 Yard Fight – The Facts Of Life
On Showtime’s Inside The NFL, Chris Collinsworth brought up a conversation he had with Hall of Famer Rod Woodson who is now on the coaching staff of the Oakland Raiders. Rod said with the elimination of 2-a-days, teams lose the ability to tell who the tough guys were. Warren Sapp said he loved how great the QBs were in week one, but defensive timing was off. I think he was alluding to the idea that defensive guys are the tough […]
10 Yard Fight – Shootout!
I think Thursday’s opening night shootout between the Green Bay Packers and New Orleans Saints affirmed three things for us: Because of the lockout, veteran teams that didn’t change head coaches and didn’t have a lot of player turnover are going to do very well this season. The Packers don’t have a Super Bowl hangover and could have one of the best offensive years in recent memory. Red zone offense is where it’s at. The Packers were 4-4 in red […]
10 Yard Fight – Are You Ready For Some Football?
The 2011 NFL season is nearly upon us. I do that Sweet Chin Muzak baseball column on this great website, so I figured that a NFL column was a natural progression. The column will be published on Sunday night/Monday morning and will discuss ten of the ongoings of the Sunday games. There will also be a heavy Fantasy Football slant to the column since I love me some Fantasy Football almost as much as Terrell “I love me some me” Owens loves himself. […]
