10 Yard Fight – Is Colin Kaepernick QB-1 For The 49ers?

10 Yard Fight – Is Colin Kaepernick QB-1 For The 49ers?

When I wrote about Alex Smith’s progress just a couple of weeks ago, it’s not like I expected the 49ers’ coaching brass to be watching him as closely as the fans were. In what I believe to be an unprecedented move, the 49ers have replaced the 5th highest rated passer in the football ( 104.1 rating ) while the team is still in first place in the NFC West, with their second year dynamo, Colin Kaepernick. In week 10, the 49ers were playing the St. Louis Rams. Smith […]

The 49ers are 6-2 and lead the NFC West. But really, how is quarterback Alex Smith doing?

10 Yard Fight - 49ers Prove Last Year Was No Joke

10 Yard Fight – 49ers Prove Last Year Was No Joke

Even after winning 13 games last year, prognosticators weren’t sold on the 49ers this year. After beating Green Bay (in Green Bay), that has to change.

10 Yard Fight - 808s & Heartbreak

10 Yard Fight – 808s & Heartbreak

I feel like a sad Kanye record. Maybe Welcome To Heartbreak: “And my head keeps spinning/I can’t stop having these visions/I gotta get wit’ it.” Or how about See You In My Nightmares? “Okay I’m back up on my grind/You do you and I’m just gon’ do mine/You do you cause I’m just gon’ be fine/Okay I got you out my mind.” I think that if I had an 808 drum machine and actually knew how to produce music and […]

10 Yard Fight - The Grab

10 Yard Fight – The Grab

The sun has set. The dust has settled. And while I rarely toot my own horn for my NFL predictions (since predicting games has as much to do with luck as it does skill), I have to point out that I picked all four NFL divisional games right on down to the upsets. Proof . Next weekend, in the conference championships, the New England Patriots will host the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers will host the New York Giants. […]

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 – 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. […]
