First Church of Football: A Semi-Live Webbed Logging of the Lord's Sport

Punting on First Down presents a sort of live web log of the NFL action on most Sundays. At least the ones on which I have internet access and I don't have to work. So probably not every week but from time to time.

Will the Eagles be able to overcome the powerhouse Redskins now that they don't have to face the posthumous kickoff coverage of the empigeoned Marquis Cooper?

POFD Fireside Chats: Philip Rivers

 

Occasionally, Punting on First Down asks an NFL star to come sit down by the fire, grab a glass of pinot noir, maybe take off some clothes, and GET FUCKING REAL. No PR reps or lawyers allowed.

Straight From the Jacket Predictions: Week 6

Well, it's week 6 in the NFL which really begs the question, what have we learned?

For starters, Mark Sanchez has Poise, Rex Ryan is fat, Terrell Owens was kidnapped, and Tony Romo is (gasp!) still pretty much overrated.

Dick Johnson's Deeply Penetrative Reports: The 5-0 Denver Broncos

These days NFL teams are becoming more and more secretive. Players respond in cliches and neutralities. Coaches provide disingenuous injury reports. Reporters are stonewalled from locker rooms.

This week: the secret to the Broncos early season success...
