New Virginia Tech coordinator could boost Thomas' NFL stock
Quarterback Logan Thomas announced his return to Virginia Tech on Tuesday, clearing the decks for the Hokies’ more enduring offseason development: the makeover of coach Frank Beamer’s offensive staff. The two stories are inexorably linked....

Can Chip Kelly's offense work in the pros?
The idea is undeniably intriguing: Oregon Coach Chip Kelly in the NFL, bringing his up-tempo offense to the highest level. Sure, it could be a flop of Steve Spurrier-like proportions, a star college coach watching his Saturday system fizzle in such a...

NFL powers, and underdogs, rain on playoff aspirants' parade
On a Sunday when the sprinklers accidentally went off at Sun Life Stadium, dousing the Seattle Seahawks and Miami Dolphins, playoff-minded teams all over the NFL were treated to a cold, harsh splash of reality. The New Orleans Saints, who had clawed...

San Francisco 49ers, Atlanta Falcons loaded with offensive weapons
ATLANTA — Twenty years ago, Jerry Glanville, then the goofball coach of the Atlanta Falcons, concocted a way to get under the skin of the San Francisco 49ers. Seeing as his team the year before had swept the 49ers and Los Angeles Rams, along...Tags: Ray McDonald, Football, Alex Smith, Roddy White, New York Giants

Conte in stopping inside vertical routes
The Seahawks and rookie quarterback Russell Wilson can put stress on the Bears' Cover-3 defense Sunday at Soldier Field by testing free safety Chris Conte with inside vertical concepts. Using the All-22 coaches film, here is an example of how Wilson...

Miami Dolphins report card
MIAMI GARDENS — Happy Birthday, Dan Carpenter. On the day the Dolphins kicker turned 27, Carpenter nailed a 43-yard field goal at the gun to complete a 24-21 comeback victory over the Seattle Seahawks at Sun Life Stadium.

If Jets aren't going to use Tim Tebow, they should let him go
Forbes surveyed NFL fans and this week published lists of the league's most and least popular players, mostly just water-cooler fodder. But it was interesting to note that Tim Tebow wasn't on either of them. That's because Tebow has become irrelevant...

Not that Phil Emery cares, but ...
Did Jimmy Johnson tweet anything else today? Hey, don’t laugh. There’s more information about the Bears coaching search coming off a houseboat in Miami than from the offices in Lake Forest. But until we see white smoke coming out of...

NFL Week 8: Everybody's OK, but is that all there is?
Nearing the midway point of the NFL season, this much can be said with conviction: The Atlanta Falcons are a perfect 7-0. And the rest of the NFL picture is a perfect mess. More than 80% of the league's teams have at least three victories, and it's...

Later for Lovie
The Chicago Bears' season is over. Same goes for Lovie Smith’s run as Bears coach. Has to be. Smith has to be fired. Today. Get on with it. If the Bears are serious about winning the Super Bowl, there’s no other choice. The Bears...

Change you can believe in? It's business as usual in the NFL
The 49ers couldn't lose. The Browns couldn't win. The Vikings were the sleepers. The Jets were the snorers. In the ever-changing NFL, though, that was . . . so last week. Everything was turned on its head Sunday — or knocked on its backside, as...

Bears defense is failing, and that's on Lovie
There’s a lot of vitriol aimed at the Bears offense after Lovie Smith’s team embarrassed itself against a bad Minnesota bunch. I get it. Mike Tice’s offense ranks worse than Mike Martz’s, and how stupid is that? Heck, the offense...
