Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross has all but confirmed that his team will be sporting new uniforms for the 2013 season. Speaking on a conference call with season ticket holders last month, Ross said...
Every year, it seems like the Patriots have an easy schedule. Is a soft division schedule a part of it? Are top GMs and heado coaches afraid to compete with Belichick?
Here is a list of head coaches in the AFC East since Belichick took over in New England in 2000.
Dolphins:
Mike Wannstedt...
Does travelling out west hurt teams in the playoffs? I use geography, not divisional alignment here, so the Chiefs don't count because they are a midwest team, even though they play in the AFC west.

Broncos 29, Steelers 23
49ers 36, Saints 32
2010:
Seahawks 41, Saints 36
2009...

I'm crunching some numbers on YPP, or yards per point (and yards allowed per point)
I went back and calculated the YAPP for every playoff team from the last 12 years (1999-2010). Some early findings.
1. The team with the best YAPP in their conference tournament won their conference 10/24...

The Steelers make their annual pilgrimage to the north coast as they finish the season at Cleveland. The Browns last home victory in this series was in 2009, when the Eric Mangini-led Browns won the first of 4 in a row to end the year.
The Browns have played better in the last several games...
You have a backup QB for a reason. He should be able to come in and play when the starter is hurt. The Steelers have done this many times with Ben. They've put him in the game when he cannot go and he's hurt his team. Sometimes, they've gotten away with it and they won anyway, but this time...
All AFC teams with winning records are listed.
Most top teams in the AFC faced stiff tests this week. Only the Patriots answered the bell. Is that enough to push them to the top? Or is someone else the best in your eyes?
The Eagles hold a key tiebreaker over both the Giants and Cowboys. The Eagles only have 1 division loss, while the others have 2 losses. Should the Eagles win out, they finish 8-8. Its one of two scenarios:

They wrapped up the division with a month to play, and if the Saints lose tonite they could have a 2 game lead for the bye. What do you do if you are coaching this team?
