2011 NFL Power Rankings
My pre-free agency 2011 NFL Power Rankings.
I'm going to use these rankings as the order for my 2012 NFL Mock Draft updates.
I've gone from WORST to FIRST, so if you don't see reverse numbering (via Javascript), don't worry; the Panthers, Redskins and Broncos aren't my top teams.
Updated: 5/11
- Washington Redskins (6-10) - Previously: 32.
MAY 11 UPDATE: So, John Beck is your starting quarterback, eh? Think that's a good thing? Think again.
The bad news is that Beck has to play the Bills again this year. The good news is that Andrew Luck will be waiting next April.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: The Redskins are the worst team in the NFL. Outside of the tight end and safety positions, the team needs to upgrade every single area. Even kicker, punter and fullback need to be fixed. And yet, Daniel Snyder is still throwing around money like some drunk at a strip joint. Will he ever go an offseason without overpaying a 30-year-old declining player or has-been?
- Seattle Seahawks (7-9) - Previously: 22.
MAY 11 UPDATE: Check out three of Pete Carroll's recent tweets:
- We're rolling!
- Who's got questions?? Q&a time!
As predicted, Carroll's tweets have declined in coolness now that he can't talk to his players.
Oh, and if you're wondering why I'm focusing on Carroll's tweets, it's because a team with Charlie Whitehurst as its quarterback has no shot.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: This NFL lockout means that coaches can't communicate with players. Oh no. How ever will Pete Carroll survive without writing cool tweets at his players? Sorry, I'm still bitter about losing $880 thanks to Carroll's idiotic decision not to go for two in the playoff game against the Bears.
- Tennessee Titans (6-10) - Previously: 29.
MAY 11 UPDATE: Jake Locker may have a bright future, but his first year in the NFL is going to be a major struggle.
By the way, I received a couple of e-mails from people asking me if I feel stupid now that Locker salvaged his big rookie signing bonus. My answer: Of course I feel stupid. I feel stupid all the time. But I'm happy for Locker. He took a chance, and it literally paid off. I didn't want to see him lose a shot at tens of millions.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: You gotta love Vince Young. Months after exiling himself from Tennessee after his post-game tirade, Young commented, "I would love to stay in Nashville. I'm a big fan of Mike Munchak. I always call him Big Hall of Famer in the hallways and things like that."
Sounds like it's time for an episode of Stupid Vince and Senile Bud!
Vince Young: Derrr, hey old guy owner ha, your name Bud is the same name as a beer I have.
Bud Adams: Weh? Who are you? You seem like you could be a good quarterback. Why don't you come play for my team?
Vince Young: Derrr, but mister old guy ha, you tolded me I cannot play for your team no more.
Bud Adams: Weh? Team? I don't have a team.
Vince Young: Derrr, it's the one with the big letter T on a circle with blue fire comin on the back even though fire only have orange and red colors ha.
Bud Adams: Weh? What T? You look like you can play quarterback son. Why don't you come play for my team?
- Minnesota Vikings (6-10) - Previously: 26.
MAY 11 UPDATE: How similar are the Vikings and Titans? Both have rookie quarterbacks. Both have elite running backs who will keep their respective teams from going winless. Both have high-profile receivers who are free agents and happen to have four letters in their last name. Both have once-great offensive lines that struggled last year. Both have major concerns on defense, thanks to free agency.
I honestly don't know whom to rank ahead of whom. I guess I'll give the Vikings the edge because Christian Ponder is more pro-ready, but both of these teams are probably going to suck balls in 2011.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: According to Chris Berman, the only reason the Vikings passed on Jimmy Clausen at the bottom of the first round last year was because they didn't want to offend Brett Favre.
Think they dodged a bullet there? Unfortunately for Viking fans, it doesn't matter. Favre is gone, and the team is in shambles. Aside from running back and special teams, Minnesota, like Washington, needs to upgrade every area of its roster.
- Cincinnati Bengals (4-12) - Previously: 31.
MAY 11 UPDATE: After reading about how Carson Linksman has 80 Meg, my brain needs a break. I can't type anything else about the Bengals.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: So, Carson Palmer has vowed never to set foot in Paul Brown Stadium again? Oh noez, not a broken-down quarterback calling it quits! Luckily, I have a fool-proof plan for owner Mike Brown. I'll reveal it on April 1, as my April Fools Mock Draft makes its triumphant return.
- Jacksonville Jaguars (7-9) - Previously: 20.
MAY 11 UPDATE: In 2007, the Eagles were ready to win right away, but spent an early pick on a quarterback. Last year, the Panthers had a veteran group that was ready to win, but spent an early selection on a signal-caller. Both teams sucked the ensuing season.
Are the Jaguars next? They were so close to winning the division, that you have to figure that a mid first-round pass-rusher could get them over the hump. Instead, it seems like Jacksonville has one eye focused on the future, which is never a good sign. Because of this, the Jaguars could endure a miserable 2011 campaign.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: Did you know that the only coaches in the NFL tenured longer than Jack Del Rio right now are Andy Reid, Bill Belichick and Marvin Lewis (by three days)? It's hard to believe that, especially since owner Wayne Weaver criticized Del Rio a year ago for not working hard enough. Poor Jack. All he wants to do is spend the entire day at the beach.
- Buffalo Bills (4-12) - Previously: 28.
MAY 11 UPDATE: The Bills aren't good enough to make the playoffs, but they probably aren't bad enough to land Andrew Luck or Matt Barkley. Now, why does that sound familiar?
MARCH 16 UPDATE: Chan Gailey on C.J. Spiller's role in Buffalo's offense: "It didn't work out as any of us planned."
In other news, Nintendo has finally conceded that the Virtual Boy was a failure.
- Carolina Panthers (2-14) - Previously: 27.
MAY 11 UPDATE: I don't think Cam Newton will ever be great, but like Vince Young, he'll be able to win a few games on his own. Combine that with the assumption that Carolina won't have nearly as many injuries this year, and I don't think it's out of the question that the Panthers can win eight games this year. I'll probably have them around 6-10 in my season previews later this summer, but that's definitely not set in stone.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: The Panthers aren't as bad as their 2-14 2010 record indicates. They had so many injuries on their defense and offensive line. Plus, they can't possibly be worse at the quarterback position next year.
By the way, what is up with Carolina's futility with second-round picks? They wasted one this year by trading for the right to draft Armanti Edwards last April. They spent another second-rounder on Jimmy Clausen. They refused to trade DeAngelo Williams for a presumed Round 2 selection. And yet, they think they can get one for Steve Smith, who is done.
- Denver Broncos (4-12) - Previously: 21.
MAY 11 UPDATE: Some may say that I have the Broncos too high. Well, I'm sorry, but I just don't want to go to Hell for betting against Tim Tebow.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: Why does John Elway hate Tim Tebow? He can't possibly think that Kyle Orton is the better option. Tebow looked great in Denver's final three games, so he deserves a shot.
I get the feeling something happened behind closed doors. Hmm...
Tim Tebow: It's an honor and a privilege to meet you, Mister John Elway Sir!
John Elway: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Look, Tim, I saw that picture online with you and that big-breasted chick. Let me have her number.
Tim Tebow: But Mister John Elway Sir, I can't give it to you.
John Elway: What!? You dare deny the great John Elway!?
Tim Tebow: Mister John Elway Sir, I don't know her. She just randomly took a picture with me. I have no way to reach her. Not that I would want to anyway because girls have cooties.
John Elway: That's it! Kyle Orton will be my starter until you get me her number!
- Oakland Raiders (8-8) - Previously: 23.
MAY 11 UPDATE: The thinking behind replacing Nnamdi Asomugha with the combination of DeMarcus Van Dyke and Chimdi Chekwa? Al Davis has our answer:
"Last year... I had... one great playa... now I have... two great playas... I took... a math coase... back in... Transylvania... in 1564... and I learned... that two great playas... is betta... than one great playa..."
In all seriousness, Oakland's defense is going to take a major step backward without Asomugha.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: The Raiders finally go better than 5-11 for the first time since 2002, and yet they fire their head coach? How does that make any sense? Apparently, Tom Cable dragged down Al Davis' virgin-sacrificing production, as females were obviously scared that Cable would beat them up.
On a serious note, Oakland will be back to the five-wins-and-fewer club if they can't retain Nnamdi Asomugha. He actually is one of Undead Al's "great playas."
- Cleveland Browns (5-11) - Previously: 24.
MAY 11 UPDATE: I loved the trade the Browns orchestrated with the Falcons. With a 2012 first-rounder, it was great for the long term. However, moving out of No. 6 prevented Cleveland from landing a blue-chip player for this year. I'm just not confident in Colt McCoy's offensive line or the personnel the Browns have assembled for their new 4-3 defense.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: Mike Holmgren has done a couple of dubious things thus far as the head man of the Browns. Giving $7 million to Jake Delhomme comes to mind. And I don't get this transition to the 4-3. Cleveland's defense ranked 15th against the run (YPC) and 13th in points allowed last year. The secondary sucked, but that won't really improve with a four-man front. The Browns lack a lot of pieces for a 4-3, so I feel as though they've regressed.
- Arizona Cardinals (5-11) - Previously: 30.
MAY 11 UPDATE: I'm calling it right now. Arizona will obtain Kevin Kolb for a first and a fourth. I'm ranking the Cardinals a little bit higher based on that prediction. If they can't land Kolb, they'll be back in the 28-31 range.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: There's no free agency, but this is good news for the Cardinals. Otherwise, their front office would hand out more ridiculous contracts to crappy players.
Last year, I wrote the following when Arizona overpaid for Joey Porter:
The Cardinals lost their starting quarterback and best defensive player (Karlos Dansby). But everything's OK because they got Joey Porter! All it took to sign him was $17.5 million over three years even though no other team was interested! Breathe a sigh of relief, Cardinals fans!
- Miami Dolphins (7-9) - Previously: 18.
MAY 11 UPDATE: I can't give the Dolphins a precise ranking because we don't know whom their quarterback is going to be yet. Also, ignore everything I wrote about Chad Henne below. I quickly soured on him once I saw this picture.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: I know Chad Henne is horrifically inconsistent, but I wouldn't give up on him. He's talented and still very young.
To help my case, I'm going to list the stats of a Super Bowl MVP quarterback from his second year as a starter in the NFL:
57.6% completion, 2,108 yards. 5.9 YPA. 11 TDs, 15 INTs. 3 fumbles lost.
As a comparison, here are Henne's numbers from his second year as a starter:
61.4% completion, 3,301 yards. 6.7 YPA. 15 TDs, 19 INTs. 2 fumbles lost.
Henne performed better than the Super Bowl MVP, who also happens to be a Big Ten alumnus.
If I were the Dolphins, I'd sign a veteran quarterback and give Henne a redshirt year to figure things out. That's what the Super Bowl MVP's former team did. The Super Bowl MVP was benched, and Doug Flutie started for a while. Eventually, the Super Bowl MVP was ready, and he performed prolifically when re-inserted into the starting lineup. I believe Henne can enjoy similar success because he's really talented.
Oh, and if you're wondering, that Super Bowl MVP was Drew Brees.
- Kansas City Chiefs (10-6) - Previously: 25.
MAY 11 UPDATE: I probably had the Chiefs too low in my previous update, but I still stand by my belief that they're going to be the big disappointment in 2011. They had a very easy schedule last year and were fortunate to bump into numerous teams when they were at their lowest point. Charlie Weis not being back is also huge.
Having said that, maybe Kansas City is bound for more luck this season. Their first four opponents are the Bills, Lions, Chargers (always suck in September) and Vikings.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: As I'll later point out, I plan on betting on the Buccaneers early and often in 2011. Conversely, I'll be fading Kansas City as much as possible. The Chiefs are a fraud team that is nowhere near as good as their 10-6 record indicates. They were lucky enough to play numerous cupcake opponents last year, and things will only be more difficult next season without Charlie Weis.
I've written this numerous times - I really liken the 2010 Chiefs to the 2009 Broncos. They're extremely similar. The 2010 Broncos went 4-12, and it wouldn't surprise me at all if the 2011 Chiefs suffered a similar fate.
- San Francisco 49ers (6-10) - Previously: 19.
MAY 11 UPDATE: I have a good feeling about this 49er team. Their coach is a billion times more competent than the guy he replaced, and he won't be mooning anyone in the locker room. Jim Harbaugh will get the most out of Alex Smith. The Niners have a strong running game and a really good defense. It seems like the only thing standing in their way of a divisional title this year is Sam Bradford.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: I have no idea what the 49ers are going to do at quarterback, so I'll rank them relatively low for now.
By the way, I really hope the Ravens-49ers game next season gets canceled for some reason. I can already hear ESPN now...
- St. Louis Rams (7-9) - Previously: 14.
MAY 11 UPDATE: Man, I wanted to have the Rams win 10 games or something, but then I saw their schedule: Eagles (home), Giants (road), Ravens (home), Redskins (home; easy win), Packers (road), Cowboys (road), Saints (home).
I don't know about you, but I think Steve Spagnuolo should start sleeping with someone in the NFL Schedule office so he can go up against some easier opponents for a change.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: The Rams could have went the safe route and drafted Ndamukong Suh. Since they took a chance on Sam Bradford, they're a playoff contender for the next decade.
By the way, I'd like to take this opportunity to remind you of what some of ESPN's analysts said during the 2010 NFL Draft. From last year's power rankings:
Steve Young, Jon Gruden and Mel Kiper opined that Bradford needs to sit for a year because he's not ready to play in a pro-style offense.
Whoops. Of course, I thought Jimmy Clausen should have been the top pick, so maybe no one really knows anything.
- Chicago Bears (11-5) - Previously: 17.
MAY 11 UPDATE: Usually, half the teams that make the playoffs in a given year don't quality the following season. The Bears could be one of those teams, based solely on their brutal schedule. They start the year with: Atlanta (home), New Orleans (road), Green Bay (home), Carolina (home; easy win), Detroit (road; first Lions Monday night game in centuries), Minnesota (home; easy win), Tampa Bay (road), Philadelphia (road).
That could easily be a 3-5 or maybe even a 2-6 start. Of course, if the Bears come out of that 5-3 or better, we'll know they're for real.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: If all I wrote in this capsule was, "Jay Cutler is a wuss," I guarantee that I'd have 500 Bears fans e-mailing me, "RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE HOW DEAR YOU CALL JAY CULER A WUSS YOU'RE THE WUSS AND IM NOT READING YOU'RE SIGHT ANY MORE!!!!"
All the Bears players similarly defended Cutler. They're still doing it. It's really amazing. As the great William Shakespeare once wrote, "The Chicago Bears doth protest too much."
- Detroit Lions (6-10) - Previously: 13.
MAY 11 UPDATE: Ugh. I want to have the Lions making the playoffs in my 2011 NFL Season Previews later this summer, but everyone thinks they'll be good, meaning Detroit will probably fall under the "everyone thinks we'll be good, so expectations are so high that we can't possibly meet them" category. The Lions will replace the Texans as that team; now, everyone is off the Houston bandwagon after years of disappointment.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: If the Lions finally decide to fix their offensive line this offseason, I'll probably have them going to the playoffs in my season previews. Then again, if Rosie O'Donnell loses 500 pounds, I'd probably find her attractive, so I guess anything can happen.
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers (10-6) - Previously: 9.
MAY 11 UPDATE: The Buccaneers had a quality draft, but I'm bumping them down a bit because of the Aqib Talib issue. If Tampa parts way with him, he definitely will be missed.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: The Buccaneers went 9-5-1 against the spread in 2010. I'm confident that we can make lots of money betting on them again next year because I don't think people realize how good this team is. Tampa won games against weak opponents early last season, but they triumphed in New Orleans and almost knocked off Atlanta toward the end. Josh Freeman can only get better, and LeGarrette Blount will be the starting running back for the whole year. Plus, all of the defensive players the Bucs were missing will be back.
- Atlanta Falcons (13-3) - Previously: 8.
MAY 11 UPDATE: In my previous update, I mentioned two things that were going against the Falcons. Well, a third was their draft day trade. I want to copy-paste something Greg Cox wrote to me in an e-mail because he made a great point about Atlanta:
Falcons lost their minds. WAY worse than Chargers trading up for Mathews. Teams that think they need one player to make the next step usually don't. I'm calling it now - they don't make the playoffs.
He's definitely right. The No. 2 receiver spot was not the only hole on Atlanta's roster, and the Cleveland trade prevented the team from adding to its overall depth. It's still early in the summer, but I'm inclined to agree with Greg for now.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: The Falcons are seen as a team on the rise, but there are two things going against them.
First, the previous two No. 1 seeds to get knocked off in their first playoff game (2007 Cowboys, 2008 Giants) didn't even make the playoffs the following season. And second, both the Saints and Buccaneers will be better next year.
I'm not saying Atlanta's going to miss the playoffs or anything, but things will be a lot more difficult in 2011 than they were last year.
- New York Giants (10-6) - Previously: 15.
MAY 11 UPDATE: Jerry Reese should write the NFL Draft for Dummies. Of course, this would only involve three easy steps:
1. Get a pick in the teens or later.
2. Watch dumb teams pick crappy players.
3. Draft a player that should have been picked earlier.
An instant best-seller!
MARCH 16 UPDATE: The Giants won the Super Bowl because they were strong on both sides of the line of scrimmage. Now both lines are questionable. That has to be fixed this offseason.
At any rate, I'm glad Tiki Barber is making a comeback. As I wrote on Twitter (@walterfootball):
Tiki Barber has come out of retirement. He apparently missed being a douche in an NFL locker room.
This is much better than Barber being a douche on TV. If he's playing football, we won't have to hear him.
- Philadelphia Eagles (10-6) - Previously: 12.
MAY 11 UPDATE: I don't want to hear this talk about "Danny Watkins may be old but he's going to help the Eagles right away!" How do you know that? Watkins hasn't played much football throughout his life, so it's not like he'll perform like some seasoned veteran in his first game. Like any other player entering the league, there will be an adjustment period.
Also, as you may expect, I received numerous e-mails from people asking me to sign a petition to keep QB Dog Killer off the Madden cover.
Hey, I actually wanted him on the Madden cover. No, I haven't gone to the dark side; I would just prefer it if he were the latest victim of the Madden curse; and not poor Peyton Hillis.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: If you're new to this site, I call the person formerly known as Michael Vick "QB Dog Killer." This enraged some people. As an experiment, I wanted to see how people would react if I began calling him something else (i.e. Eagles QB No. 7). I received numerous e-mails asking me why I changed his name, including:
I am curious though you may have and probably have already answered this question a zillion times, but why did you stop the QB Dog Killer reference? I found it rather amusing like the rest of your humor on your site, and I just found it odd that you would change that, the only thing I could think of is that somebody representing mike vick contacted you and told you to get rid of it or face some sort of libel charge, but I could be overthinking things and you simply decided that he earned his new designation, although I will miss QB Dog Killer.
QB Dog Killer will live on. And speaking of which, here's another e-mail:
BTW, Mic-- er, QB Dog Killer didn't win any WalterFootball.com NFL Awards? You should have made a new one just for him. Maybe "Most Hyped Player of the Year," or "Best Former Convict of the Year," or "Best Short QB of the Year"?
How about "Best Quarterback Confused by the Blitz on a Random Tuesday Night Game?"
I'm not buying the 2011 Eagles. They have issues on their offensive line and defense, and QB Dog Killer is definitely not nearly as good as some people make him out to be. We all overreacted to that crazy Monday night game against the Redskins. The real QB Dog Killer can't read defenses or recognize the blitz. Once his athletic abilities erode, he'll be nothing more than a sub-par quarterback.
- Dallas Cowboys (6-10) - Previously: 11.
MAY 11 UPDATE: I received numerous hate mails for continuously ranking the Cowboys too high last year. So bring them on. I'm ready for the "RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE YOU HAVE TEH COWBOY RANK TO HI!!!!" e-mails.
I just think the Cowboys are really good, and they finally don't have a competent head coach for a change. That said, I will miss Wade Phillips' constant confused looks on the sideline. Those were always good for a laugh if I was having a bad day.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: The Cowboys' disastrous 6-10 season might just be the best thing that could have happened to this franchise. Not only did it give Jerry Jones an excuse to fire the bumbling Wade Phillips; they were able to secure the No. 9 pick, which will allow them to add a blue-chip player to their defense.
I'd call Dallas a sleeper, but they're one of the favorites to win the Super Bowl according to Vegas. And rightfully so.
- Houston Texans (6-10) - Previously: 16.
MAY 11 UPDATE: I'm going to do something no one has ever done before. Thanks to Houston's improved defense under Wade Phillips, I'm going to have the Texans reaching the AFC Championship in my season previews!!!! Oh wait... I did that last year. Oops.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: Wade Phillips is a horrible head coach, but he's a hell of a defensive coordinator. Houston's offense wasn't the problem last year, so if Phillips can help the defense improve - and it can't possibly be worse than it was in 2010 - then the Texans have a great shot at finally getting into the playoffs for the first time in franchise history.
- New York Jets (11-5) - Previously: 10.
MAY 11 UPDATE: This lockout may have really helped the Jets. They had so many free agents that having the 2011 NFL Draft prior to the free agency period allows them to focus on the guys they know they absolutely have to re-sign. For example, they know they can let Shaun Ellis walk because they were able to land Muhammad Wilkerson at No. 30.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: I think I'm one of Mark Sanchez's only supporters. Did he have a ton of interceptions dropped last year? Yes, but he was also clutch when it counted most. Sanchez improved as the year went on too; it wasn't his fault that the defense couldn't stop the Steelers. Plus, he was only a second-year quarterback. People forget that. He's only going to improve.
However, I don't agree with Rex Ryan's Super Bowl prediction. The Jets have so many free agents that it'll be impossible to re-sign everyone.
- San Diego Chargers (9-7) - Previously: 6.
MAY 11 UPDATE: Another team I inexplicably ranked too high throughout the 2010 season. I don't know what my obsession is with crappy coaches like Wade Phillips and Norv Turner. Maybe I should see a psychiatrist or enroll in a support group for this.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: You know what's sad? The Chargers probably would have made the playoffs last year if they just went for it on fourth down every single time. Sounds crazy, but their special teams were so bad that just entirely avoiding punting and kicking would have been the best move.
- New Orleans Saints (11-5) - Previously: 7.
MAY 11 UPDATE: I really hated the Mark Ingram trade, and I really think it could hurt the Saints in the long run, but they'll benefit this upcoming season. As long as his knee is OK - and the doctors gave teams the green light - Ingram should be a really good running back in this league. Having him in the backfield obviously makes Drew Brees that much more dangerous.
Another positive is that Saints fans no longer have to watch the injury report every week to see if a questionable Reggie Bush will play. "It's been fun New Orleans?" As a former Bush owner in fantasy football, I can adamantly say that it has not been fun.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: I'm mad that the Saints cut Jeremy Shockey because I already liked Jimmy Graham as a sleeper fantasy tight end. Now, everyone is going to have him high on their board. Damn it all.
I'll have some 2011 Fantasy Football Rankings articles posted in April. Let's just hope we can all play fantasy football this season.
- Baltimore Ravens (12-4) - Previously: 5.
MAY 11 UPDATE: Random thought: If the lockout is lifted soon - fingers crossed - and both Torrey Smith and Tandon Doss flash in minicamps, training camps and the preseason, it would not surprise me at all if Anquan Boldin doesn't make the final roster. Boldin played like crap last year, catching 14 passes for 125 yards in his final six games. I have no reason to believe why he would suddenly improve in 2011. If Smith and Doss are ready, they should play ahead of Boldin.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: Joe Flacco is now 0-6 against Ben Roethlisberger. I'm guessing the Ravens won't win the Super Bowl again until there's a positive digit in that left column.
Unfortunately for Flacco, he lost his quarterbacks coach this offseason. At the behest of Flacco, Jim Zorn was reportedly let go because he couldn't get along with Cam Cameron. Cameron, meanwhile, really sucked at play-calling and was fired from the Dolphins after one year. Are we sure that Baltimore let the right guy go?
- New England Patriots (14-2) - Previously: 2.
MAY 11 UPDATE: What the hell happened during the draft? It's almost like Bill Belichick logged into Bodog and bet his entire bank account on "Will New England address its front seven in the first five rounds of the 2011 NFL Draft? No +1,500."
MARCH 16 UPDATE: When I was buying a house, my friend and real estate lawyer asked me if I planned on getting married anytime soon. When I told him no, he replied, "Good. Don't get married."
I didn't understand why he said this until I saw Tom Brady's pony tail. Poor Tom. I think we now know who wears the pants in that household.
As for the actual team, I'm concerned about Brady's offensive line. Stephen Neal just retired and Matt Light is a free agent. Bill Belichick needs to make sure that he protects the pony tail at all cost.
- Indianapolis Colts (10-6) - Previously: 4.
MAY 11 UPDATE: Is it crazy to think that Peyton Manning might actually struggle next year because of the offensive line improvements? I can almost imagine him thinking, "What the hell? I wasn't hit yet, and there are no defenders in my face. Something must be going wrong. I know - I'm in some sort of bizarro world. Let me throw it to the other team just to make sure!"
So, if you're in one of my fantasy leagues, avoid Manning at all cost. And when I draft him in Round 4, know that I'm doing you a favor.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: I love how people proclaim that Peyton Manning is on the decline and that the Colts are done. Manning just had one of his best years ever. His offensive line was in shambles and his receiving corps suffered way too many injuries. Manning's ability to carry that 2010 Colts squad into the playoffs is one of his best achievements.
- Pittsburgh Steelers (12-4) - Previously: 3.
MAY 11 UPDATE: The Steelers play a Thursday night game this year. I thought I'd point that out because Bob Papa, Matt Millen and Joe Theismann have officially been ousted as the NFL Network's Thursday night crew.
At first, I was disappointed that I wouldn't be able to make fun of Millen and Theismann anymore. But then I thought about it, and I'm really looking forward to not feeling like I'm coming out of a comatic stupor after each Thursday night game.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: It's time for Stupid Things Walt Said - 2010 Edition!
This Steelers team is falling apart. Ben Roethlisberger will be suspended and there's no way he's preparing for the 2010 season amid all of these allegations. Santonio Holmes was just traded. Hines Ward is threatening to retire after this season. A few months ago, I thought the Steelers had a great chance to reach Super Bowl XLV. That chance is gone.
Man, what kind of idiot writes something like that?
- Green Bay Packers (10-6) - Previously: 1.
MAY 11 UPDATE: For those of you who have been reading this Web site for a while, you know that I never pick a team to repeat as Super Bowl champions. I like to come up with dark horse candidates, and I've done pretty well with that; I had the Packers and Saints going to the Super Bowl the previous two seasons.
Having said that, I might just break that trend. This Green Bay team is REALLY good, and they're going to be better than last year because they'll have everyone back from injury. Plus, their draft was amazing.
Stay tuned for my 2011 NFL Season Previews. Hopefully I can start doing them in June, which would mean that free agency happened already and the lockout concluded. As I wrote above, fingers crossed.
MARCH 16 UPDATE: Man, I was a Ben Roethlisberger suspension and a Santonio Holmes trade away from getting the Super Bowl XLV matchup completely right in my 2010 season previews. I had the Packers going there, and I would have had them battling Pittsburgh if it weren't for all that aforementioned stuff. What's that? You're reminding me that I had the Texans and Cowboys losing in the championship games? Screw you.
Can Green Bay repeat? Absolutely. It's crazy to think that this Packers team is going to be better next year once they get all of their players back from injury.

Keynote Speaker:
Jim Nussle, President/CEO, Credit Union National Association
Jim Nussle was named president and CEO of the Credit Union National Association in September 2014. Nussle, is a former eight-term congressman and director of the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
CUNA is the largest and most influential national financial services trade association advocating for America's credit unions. There are nearly 6,700 credit unions nationwide, with over 100 million members and almost $1.1 trillion in assets.
Nussle has long admired the grass roots advocacy strength of the credit union movement. In Congress, he witnessed firsthand the enthusiastic advocacy the leaders and members of the nation's nearly 7,000 credit unions have.
Nussle served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1991-2007 as a Republican representative from the State of Iowa. From 2001-2006, he served as chairman of the House Budget Committee, a key panel that oversees the federal budget process, including review of all bills and resolutions on the budget. In addition he was a member of the House leadership and served on the Banking and Ways and Means Committees.
In 2007, President Bush tapped him as the 36th director of OMB, the largest office within the Executive Office of the President of the United States. As OMB director, he was a member of the president's cabinet.
Nussle also served on the founding board of Growth Energy, a trade association of renewable energy companies and industry partners. He was recruited by his fellow board members in 2010 to help lead the organization as its President and COO. During his tenure, Growth Energy nearly doubled its revenue, increased membership by 18% to become the largest renewable energy association, and successfully navigated several regulatory and legislative challenges.
In his early career, Nussle served his community for four years as a first responder and firefighter with the Manchester Volunteer Fire Department. He also spent four years as the Delaware County Attorney, the chief prosecutor and civil attorney for the jurisdiction and established his own law practice. Nussle also serves as a director on the boards of Thrivent Mutual Funds, PRA Group Inc., and as a special advisor on the advisory board of AVISTA Capital Partners.
In addition, he volunteers his time with The National Down Syndrome Society and as President of Epiphany Lutheran Church Congregational Council, where you can often find him "sitting in" playing guitar in the praise band for Sunday services.
A native Iowan, Nussle received a degree in political science from Luther College in Decorah, Iowa, and his law degree from Drake University in Des Moines. Nussle and his wife, Karen live in Virginia, and have two adult children.

Samuel L. Jackson's Nick Fury & Tom Hiddleston's Loki Feature In New Clip From Marvel's 'The Avengers'
With 'The Avengers' 3D, 2D and IMAX 3D release fast approaching, Marvel Studios has set loose (via MSN) this new clip from the hugely anticipated superhero movie featuring Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) face-to-face with an imprisoned Loki (Tom Hiddleston). Directed by Joss Whedon, 'The Avengers' ('Avengers Assemble' if you're in the UK) stars Chris Evans (Captain America/Steve Rogers), Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye/Clint Barton), Mark Ruffalo (Bruce Banner/Hulk), Robert Downey Jr (Iron Man/Tony Stark), Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Samuel L. Jackson (Nick Fury), Scarlett Johansson (Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow), and Tom Hiddleston (Loki). The likes of Cobie Smulders, Clark Gregg, and Stellen Skarsgard co-star. 'The Avengers' is released in cinemas April 26th in the UK and May 4th in the US.
Continuing the epic big-screen adventures started in "Iron Man," "The Incredible Hulk," "Iron Man 2," "Thor," and "Captain America: The First Avenger," "Marvel's The Avengers" is the super hero team up of a lifetime. When an unexpected enemy emerges that threatens global safety and security, Nick Fury, director of the international peacekeeping agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D., finds himself in need of a team to pull the world back from the brink of disaster.
Based on the ever-popular Marvel comic book series, first published in 1963, "Marvel's The Avengers" brings together the mightiest super hero characters as they all assemble together on screen for the first time. The star studded cast of super heroes will be joined by Cobie Smulders ("How I Met Your Mother) as Agent Maria Hill of S.H.I.E.L.D., as well as Tom Hiddleston ("Wallander") and Stellan Skarsgård ("Angels & Demons," "Mamma Mia!") who will both reprise their respective roles as Loki and Professor Erik Selvig from the upcoming Marvel Studios' feature "Thor."
"Marvel's The Avengers" is being produced by Marvel Studios' President, Kevin Feige, and executive produced by Alan Fine, Stan Lee, Louis D'Esposito, Patty Whitcher, and Jon Favreau. Marvel Studios' Jeremy Latcham and Victoria Alonso will co-produce.
The creative production team also includes Oscar nominated director of photography Seamus McGarvey ("Atonement"), production designer James Chinlund ("25th Hour"), Oscar winning costume designer Alexandra Byrne ("Elizabeth: The Golden Age"), Oscar winning visual effects supervisor Janek Sirrs ("Iron Man 2," "The Matrix"), visual effects producer Susan Pickett ("Iron Man," "Iron Man 2″), stunt coordinator R.A. Rondell ("Superman Returns"), and four-time Oscar nominated special effects supervisor Dan Sudick ("Iron Man," "War of the Worlds"). The editors include Oscar nominated Paul Rubell ("Collateral") and Jeffrey Ford ("Crazy Heart").

Spam Fried Rice
Spam fried rice.
Not the spam you get in your email inbox every day, but the "spiced ham" or canned pre-cooked meat that is very popular here in the United States and around the world. Everyone knows that Spam is not healthy food; we feel sorry for our health as we consume it, but let's just confess that many of us actually do like it.
I like it. And I like Spam fried rice because I am a big fan of Chinese fried rice.
My late mother used to make spam with fried eggs. I also like it in my instant noodles, sometimes in my sandwiches, but mostly in Spam fried rice. Little cubes of spam, mixed vegetables, rice, and eggs often make a quick lunch for me. Spam fried rice is so easy to make, filling, and actually quite tasty.
Don't feel guilty about eating spam. Many people do. So once in a while, make yourself a serving or two of Spam fried rice and indulge in the guilty pleasure!

Awesome dish..please share its recipe also !!
This looks so great and easy to make. I can't wait to cook it. Thanks for the recipe.
I love spam but i rarely eat it. Due to health issues of course
This is almost the exact recipe that was used at a Chinese restaurant that I used to work at when I was in hs. It was delicious. I used to eat an entire soup bowl(Chinese soup bowl). The chef added a little curry powder to kick the flavor up a bit. Now instead of spam, I use chicken. It's healthier this way.
We love Spam at home! And if you put it on fried rice, then it's a sure hit. Thanks for reminding us of our delicious guilty pleasures. Great photos ~ they made me hungry!
my mom still makes spam fried rice. it is my 2nd favorite fried rice that she cooks. first is the pork belly fried rice with chinese sausage.
Love this easy fried rice recipe. I do a similar version with cured ham.
Hilarious. I'll just stick to crack-cocaine though (for health purposes)
yes! spam!!! who doesn't love a little spam in their lives…err, fried rice!!! nom-nom-nom…!
I`ve tried this recipe and i`m really impressed, it has a very good taste. My both child tried it and they like it a lot. Thanks a lot for sharing.
There is a restaurant in Saipan and Guam callled Shirley's that serves hot and spicy spam fried rices. In fact their recipe is on the side of the hot and spicy spam can…..I love spam
Ahh, spam. I'm not a fan of the meat, but my Minnesota roots make me proud of the famous brand (it was created in Austin, MN where Hormel is based). Did you ever make it to the Spam Museum? Would have been just a few hours drive east of where you went to school.
Funny thing is, there is a big Mayo Clinic outlet across the street from the museum. I guess it makes sense to have some of the best doctors in the country very near to where people are eating a bit too much spam…
I have fried rice with spam for the last 15 years and my adult children loved it. We used 1 can of spam, instead of cutting in cubes, we use folk to mash it. We used 5 rice-bowls of cooked rice(it doesn't have to be overnight as we used 1/2 jasmine and 1/2 basmati). We add chopped onions, any of the following chopped greens(snow peas, french beans, gailan stem), eggs, and top with chopped green onions. The good thing is no salt, soya sauce or fish sauce is necessary.

This is a loved spam, thenk you.
This is really good! I've tried over the past making fried rice but i always end up putting too much soy sauce that the fried rice basically taste like soy sauce.
I love how it's so simple yet really delicious as well. I mostly eat spam and rice for breakfast but this recipe makes me love eating spam and rice without getting tired of it!
We got a couple of SPAM cans last weekend (you know, having it just in case). And this IS a great case!:) Thank you!

Imagine if the next generation Raspberry Pi was Intel Atom based because of this graphics driver issue?
ARM are in a position to enable this as they control the Mali GPU. Or maybe one of the lesser known GPU makers could do the right thing. I'm assuming we'll never see open source Tegra drivers, and Imagination Tech have been terrible to date so I hold no hope there.

The very best of Dover: Chamber recognizes top citizen, volunteer, business and nonprofit
Saturday, January 26, 2013
SOUTH BERWICK, Maine — "I have just a few things to say," said Kevin McEneaney, as he held up a stack of notes, smiling, after The Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce recognized him as the group's Citizen of the Year at its annual awards dinner Friday evening.
The Chamber's awards dinner was held at The Red Barn at Outlook Farm in South Berwick and every seat in the house was filled. The public began purchasing tickets earlier this winter and sales remained steady after the Citizen of the Year, Business of the Year, Volunteer of the Year and Non-Profit of the Year were announced earlier this month.
The Volunteer of the Year award, sponsored by D.F. Richard, was presented to Dr. Dave Staples for providing dental care to Dover Children's Home and the poor throughout the community. Staples helped Wentworth-Douglass Hospital design its dental center and generously supported the Goodwin Community Health Center.
"Dover is a great community. Look at this turnout. It's really special," said Staples.
The crowd broke out in laughter as Staples reached into his pocket and pulled out and then put on a dental mask.
" Now you might recognize me," he joked.
Staples continuously thanked the Dover community and thanked his wife for her ongoing support.
Leone, McDonnell & Roberts, P.A. was presented the Business of the Year award, sponsored by Public Service of New Hampshire, for its dedication toward military support through the New Hampshire Society of Certified Public Accounts and for its contributions to a number of other organizations, as well as encouraging employees to provide volunteer hours, according to the award presenter, Catalina Celentano.
" We are of course very honored and excited. We work hard and give back. One day you're recognized and it's pretty neat," said Paul Daley Deplanche, who accepted the award along with David Verno and Kristen Bournival.
The Non-Profit Award was presented to The Dover Lodge of Elks #184 by Jim Brennan and sponsored by Federal Savings Bank.
" After I had an opportunity to review their nomination, it was clear to me that they indeed live their mission in their daily actions in our community," said Brennan.
"We are very proud to have the Dover Elks be nominated. It shows how patriotic we really are. It's all Frank. He's been a vital part of our success this year," said Allard.
The night was filled with community support and many notables were also recognized, including Mayor Dean Trefethen, City Manager Mike Joyal, Economic Development Director Dan Barufaldi, Director of Planning and Community Development Chris Parker, Deputy Mayor and City Councilor Bob Carrier, City Councilor Bill Garrison, Dover Fire Chief Richard Driscoll, Dover Police Chief Anthony Colarusso, and Thomas DeRosa, who was there representing U.S. Sen. Kelly Ayotte.

Tony Stewart joins long list of NASCAR stars to miss races with injuries
Tony Stewart joins long list of NASCAR stars to miss races with injuries
Denny Hamlin missed four races earlier this year with a fractured vertebra in his lower back — an injury that he is still recovering from and that has seriously impacted his season.
Now Tony Stewart will miss multiple races with a broken right leg.
It's rare that two Sprint Cup stars miss multiple races with serious injuries in the same season.
But injuries are part of racing and while NASCAR drivers have a long history of playing hurt, some injuries are serious enough to force them out of their cars and to miss events. Some of NASCAR's biggest stars have missed races after being hurt and some were forced to retire with career-ending injuries.
Here's a look at 14 big-name drivers who suffered non-fatal injuries that forced them to miss races over the past 25 years.
Use arrow keys to navigate
of 14
Tony Stewart
Stewart broke his right leg in a sprint car crash at Southern Iowa Speedway Monday night. He had surgery immediately after the crash and is scheduled to have more surgery in the next few days.
Stewart, who is 11th in the Sprint Cup standings and eligible for a Chase wild card, will miss the Aug. 11 race at Watkins Glen and is expected to miss at least three races.
His injury will almost certainly knock him out of the 2013 Chase and could affect his performance the remainder of the season.
of 14
Denny Hamlin
Hamlin suffered a compression fracture in his lower back when he was involved in a last-lap crash with Joey Logano at Auto Club Speedway March 24.
The injurey forced Hamlin to miss the next four races and derailed his season, diminishing his hopes of making the 2013 Chase.
Hamlin returned May 5 at Talladega but ran only part of the race before turning his car over to relief driver Brian Vickers. He returned to action full time May 11 at Darlington, where he finished second.
Hamlin scored top-five finishes in his first two races after returning, but has struggled since then, with seven straight finishes outside the top 10. He has fallen to 25th in points and has virtually not chance of making the Chase.
of 14
Dale Earnhardt Jr.
Earnhardt was forced to miss two races during the 2012 Chase because of concussions, one suffered in a crash while testing at Kansas Speedway in August and another in a last-lap crash at Talladega Superspeedway two months later.
The concussions were not diagnosed until Earnhardt visited a doctor after suffering headaches on the Tuesday following the Talladega crash. Earnhardt has had a couple of crashes since his injury last year but reported no concussion-like symptoms.
The injury caused Earnhardt to slip to 12th in the final Sprint Cup standings last year.
of 14
Ricky Rudd
Rudd missed five races in 2007 after he suffered a separated shoulder in a crash at California Speedway.
Driving for Yates Racing, it ended a streak of 813 events that Rudd had competed in. His streak reached a record 788 consecutive starts before he skipped the 2006 season.
Rudd, who had 23 career victories, retired after the 2007 season.
of 14
Sterling Marlin
Marlin missed the final seven races in 2002 after breaking his neck in a crash at Kansas Speedway.
The Chip Ganassi Racing driver had led the Cup standings for much of the season and was fifth in the standings, just 121 points out of the lead, when he found out he would miss the remainder of the season.
His replacement, Jamie McMurray, won the October race at Charlotte Motor Speedway in just his second race.
Marlin, who had 10 career victories and won the Daytona 500 twice, ran four more full seasons but never won another race.
of 14
Kyle Petty
Petty missed races because of injury during four different seasons, including two in 2007 when he broke his hand.
How'd he break it? By punching a cabinet in his team hauler.
Petty missed 11 races in 1991 after a crash at Talladega left him with a broken leg.
He missed two races in 1996 because of broken ribs suffered in a crash at Indianapolis and one race in 2003 because of a cracked rib from a crash at Bristol.
Petty had eight career victories, his last coming in 1995.
of 14
Jerry Nadeau
Nadeau suffered a career-ending head injury in a crash during practice at Richmond International Raceway in 2003.
The former Hendrick Motorsports driver was driving for MB2 Motorsports at the time of the accident. He was in a medically induced coma for three weeks.
Nadeau, who won a race for Hendrick in 2000, never returned to racing.
of 14
Ernie Irvan
Irvan suffered two major accidents, with the second one forcing his retirement.
Irvan missed the final 11 races of 1994 and nearly all of 1995 after a wreck in practice at Michigan International Speedway left the Robert Yates Racing driver clinging to his life. Irvan, who was second in points at the time, suffered a severe head injury that took him more than a year to recover from.
Irvan returned to run three races at the end of 1995, and then won two races in 1996 and one in 1996, all of them for Yates.
He retired after 21 races in 1999 following a wreck in a Busch Series race at, of all places, Michigan.
of 14
Ricky Craven
Craven's career was derailed by a 1997 crash at Texas Motor Speedway, where he suffered a concussion, a fractured shoulder and cracked ribs.
He missed two races that year and then after four races in 1998, he missed the next 13 because of post-concussion syndrome.
Craven competed in four more races for Hendrick Motorsports before being released. He returned the following season and won a Cup race in 2001 and in 2003.
of 14
Steve Park
Park suffered two major injuries in his career.
In 1998, he missed 13 races after he broke his leg in a crash at Atlanta.
In 2001, he missed the final 12 races — as well as the first four races of 2002 — because of a concussion he suffered in a freak accident at Darlington Raceway. Park crashed during a Busch Series race when his steering wheel came unhooked, his car snapped sideways and was t-boned by Larry Foyt.
Park, who had two career Cup wins, ran two more full Cup seasons but never won another race.
of 14
Bill Elliott
Elliott missed seven races in 1996 when he broke his leg in an accident at Talladega Superspeedway while driving for his own team.
Four different drivers replaced Elliott, who missed five consecutive races and then had to miss Watkins Glen and Bristol later in the year.
Elliott, who had 44 career victories, went winless from 1995-2000, and then won four races for team owner Ray Evernham from 2001-03.
of 14
Darrell Waltrip
Waltrip missed six races with a broken left leg after an accident at Daytona International Speedway in the summer 1990. The accident occurred in the final practice.
Waltrip was driving for Hendrick Motorsports at the time of the accident, which in some ways was a turning point in his career. He went winless for the first time in 15 years that season and left Hendrick after the season to start his own team.
The three-time Cup champion, and now Hall of Famer, never finished higher than eighth in the standings again.
of 14
Neil Bonnett
Bonnett, who won 18 Cup races and was part of the famed Alabama Gang, suffered what appeared to be a career-ending head injury when he crashed his Wood Brothers Racing car at Darlington Raceway in 1990.
Three years later, Bonnett, who became a popular television commentator, returned to run two races in 1993.
In 1994, he was killed in a crash during practice for the Daytona 500.
of 14
Bobby Allison
Allison had to retire after suffering a severe head injury in a crash at Pocono Raceway in 1988.
Allison was hospitalized for several months and still suffers from memory loss from the accident.
The Hall of Fame driver finished his career with 85 victories in 718 career starts.
