Seahawks receiver Nate Burleson is enjoying one of his best statistical seasons, posting 45 catches for 562 yards and three scores through the first half of the season. However, not much good can be said about the Seahawks as a whole, as they stumble into the midway point at 3-5, two games behind the first place Cardinals. Well, Burleson, perhaps noticing how well bold predictions worked for Kerry...

Johnson was cut today by the Kansas City Chiefs after several run-ins with new head coach Todd Haley, most notably a recent public questioning of Haley's background followed by a homophobic slur. I would hope that there is no chance that the Texans will...
via i.cdn.turner.com Very little news today. In seven games, the Chiefs offense has had 90 negative yardage plays. That’s running and passing play for minus yards, sacks, interceptions, fumbles lost and offensive penalties. When it comes to negative on offense, the Chiefs lead the league. "Minus plays, minus plays, we have to eliminate minus plays," Haley said last week. "Coach...
The NFL's Kansas City Chiefs have barred star running back Larry Johnson from all team activities as the club and league look into comments he made Monday. In telling reporters to get away from him, Johnson used a slur that referred to gays. He used the same slur on Twitter in an exchange with one of his followers. A day later, he used a gay slur again as he brushed off reporters and told them he...
The spirit of the 2009 Mets lives on in the Tennessee Titans, who were expected to contend this year but are now 0-6 after getting humiliated by the Patriots, 59-0. Many observers thought that the Titans appeared to give up against New England. But Titans coach Jeff Fisher has an odd way of bringing the winning spirit back to Tennessee. Fisher appeared in public Tuesday wearing an Indianapolis Colts...

Before the season started, I selected the Cleveland Indians to win the American League Central. Today, they sit one game above the Kansas City Royals for fourth place in the division. As bad as that is, it's far from my worst sports take or prediction ever. With that in mind, here's a short list of what I consider my worst sports predictions or takes ever. I'm sure friends and my alleged "fan...
There are plenty of people who point to the 0-16 record of the 2008 Detroit Lions when Rod Marinelli's coaching credentials are brought up. And others who say that Bears fans are expecting too much from Marinelli, stating that he is no "savior" for our defensive woes. Personally, I am as excited about the acquisition of Marinelli as I am of Jay Cutler . I don't put either one of them into...
The press conferences would be more entertaining, but the fact that every fan would tune in to hear a positional coach address the media after every game isn’t the only reason the Buffalo Bills should hire Herman Edwards as an assistant. His termination from the Kansas City Chiefs is an opportunity for the Bills to acquire an experienced defensive associate, as bringing him aboard would give...
The Kansas City Chiefs have fired head coach Herman Edwards. He won 15 and lost 33 games in three seasons with the Chiefs, including a record of 2-14 this season.
Today was a sad day for TheSportsWatcher. After years and years of watching my man Herman Edwards be the epitome of what I thought every head coach should be, the Kansas City Chiefs fired him today. And I’m not so sure that he’ll find another coaching job anytime soon, or even in the distant future. Call me ignorant if you will, but I loved Herm Edwards as a coach. Sure, he was never the...
If there ever was an occasion to put on your black suit and tie and muster up the courage to share a few words about someone special you lost, this is it. Today we remember a man we will never, ever forget — now ex-Kansas City Chiefs coach Herman Edwards, Jr.
Herman Edwards was fired as head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs on Friday leading to speculation that former Denver Broncos’ head coach Mike Shanahan will be hired as his replacement.
