VIDEO NFL Power Rankings 2k18 Finale in "A QB Driven League" as we have it all going from "Black Sunday" and "Black Monday" to the #Fight4Lamar #Fight4George and #Fight4Vince and some major disappointments!...Saints and Chiefs are Regular Season Conference Champs! #NFLPowerRankings2k18Finale #AQBDrivenLeague #BlackSunday #BlackMonday #Fight4Lamar #Fight4George #Fight4Vince

The New Orleans Saints reign supreme as the NFL Power Rankings go final and #GeauxSaints and #WhoDatNation will be #1 as everything runs through the Crescent City in the #Fight4George. The Kansas City Chiefs rule the roost in the #Fight4Lamar and it would only be fitting if they can bring the Lamar Hunt Trophy back where it belongs in Kansas City.

As we go to press the Denver Broncos, New York Jets and Tampa Bay Buccaneers will have new lead man heading into the 2k19 season and there might be more. Now the NFL Power Rankings 2k18 Finale on New Years Eve 2k19...

the Mahtomic Bomber "No-Look"


360 Degrees

That 10-12 gets in as the defending Super Bowl Champion Eagles will travel to Chicago to face the Bears in the upcoming Wild Card Weekend...

Saints could have went 14-2 but rested folks and I can't blame them and still ended up with the best NFL W-L at 13-3...

Team to Watch in #Fight4George #DaBears as "D" travels and if they brought that George Halas Trophy back where it belongs in Halas Hall oh my...that worth an off-season of SHAM-PAG-NA in and around the 312...

Team to watch in the #Fight4Lamar I think its both #RavensFlock and #FightForEachOther as they both meet at the Big Crab Cake in B-More and none of the other 4 teams in the AFC wants to see these teams...

Vacant Gigs as we go to press #BroncosCountry #GoBucs and #Jets....there maybe more stay tuned! 

Most disappointing team in the 2k18 Power Rankings the once 7-2-1 Steelers and the scary thing is looking ahead as the Ravens and Browns are on the ups in the AFC North and Pittsburgh will starts out next season as the 3rd best in the AFC North...

Mike Mayock in a Raiders GM!...Bluedude Sportstalk FRONT LINE December 31st, 2k18 goes "PLUG & DRAFT" as the Oakland Raiders/Las Vegas Raiders might have hit a Grand Slam getting NFL Draft Guru M&M Plain in Mike Mayock as he is a "Plug n Draft" G.M.! @MikeMayock @Raiders #RaiderNation #ChuckieBusiness #BDSTFrontLine

Out of nowhere NFL Network TV Analyst and Notre Dame In-Game Analyst for NBC Sports Mike Mayock gets his what has to be his dream job as the Oakland Raiders and Jon Gruden hires M&M Plain as the Oakland Raiders new General Manager.

Why hire Mayock heck if you ever watched the NFL Draft Mayock along with fellow NFL Analyst and NFL In-Game Analyst Charles Davis are all over the NFL Draft Prospects and they always have it covered thoroughly. It is a good fit for Mayock yes considering how he goes about his business knowing the college prospects and always hits a grand slam on what each NFL Teams needs.

He always talks the top players are "Plug and Play" Players well Mayock is a "Plus and Draft" GM and I love this move for Chuckie and the Raiders with all those picks they need it. M&M and Chuckie should be on the same page and now the 2k19 NFL Draft takes an interesting turn talking Raiders 2k19 NFL Draft Business as the Bluedude can't wait!  

Joseph out as Broncos Country Lead Man!..."Black Monday" is here as "Making Noise" goes 5,280 Feet above Ocean Water as Mile High Pro Football moves on with QB Case Keenum! @Bronocs #VanceJosephFired #BroncosCountry #BlackMonday


The Denver Broncos move on from the Vance Joseph Era as in 24 months he is out as Broncos lead man. I would say this not defending anyone as coaches coach to move up in their profession like anyone else would want the move vertically instead of diagonally. Having said that when you move  in the NFL its a "A QB Driven League" you might want to make sure a Franchise QB or something close to that is inn place for an extended period of time or you have no shot zero chance of getting anywhere. 

It appears to me that some coaches are Stop Gap Coaches good enough to get the organization to the point to where they are on the way up. Some coaches just like the organization must do their due diligence and if things are not to your liking say no and stay coordinator as you don't have to do anything. Did Joseph had zero chance with really nothing in place (That "D" was not that good) and you say he was a defensive mind and its "A QB Driven League".

Now the Broncos move on to with QB Case Keenum, Red Jersey Collector Von Miller and #1 WR Emmanuel "Go Go" Sanders on season-ending Achilles Injury and he was on the way out anyway. John Elway has a long way to go to fix this and getting rid of Joseph isn't the problem as maybe shopping for the groceries is and it is what it is!

Broncos as we go to press have requested interviews with Steelers O-Line Coach Mike Munchak and Patriots D-Coordinator Brian Flores...

Dec 30, 2018

Bowles out as Gotham City Green Lead Man!...Black Monday is Black Sunday as "Making Noise" hits the biggest Market in the U.S. New York City as Jets keep GM! #ToddBowlesFired @Jets #GothamCityGreen #NYJets #GangGreen #BlackMonday #BlackSunday

The New York Jets as expected let lead man Todd Bowles go as he is relieved of his duties as Jets current GM Mike Maccagnan keep his gig as he came in with Bowles and usually the GM is attached to his lead man but in this case Maccagnan keeps his gig at least for now.

Bowles was 24-40 as Gotham City Green's lead man including a promising first season as he took the Jets to a 10-6 season. Then after that season in 2015 Bowles went 5-11 (2016), 5-11 (2017) and 4-12 in 2018.

Jets made quite a few changes to that roster including a rookie QB Sam Darnold (pictured right) added to the mix in 2018 but it wasn't enough. Add a 38-3 loss to the Patriot Bowles had to know he was Dead Coach walking.

Now the Jets turn to someone I am guessing with the trend the offensive mind and gets Darnold turned around as well as the defense. That's two lead man on Sunday as I expect more on Monday and maybe a surprise or two.  

Colts 33 Titans 17 F..."A QB Driven League" and Circle City Pro Football > Music City Football at least on this night as the Titans are out and QB Andrew Luck and the Colts move onto Wild Card Weekend! #INDvsTEN #Colts #TitanUp #AFCSouth #ColtsNation #MusicCityTitans #AFCWildCard#2

It's this easy No Marcus Mariota for the Tennessee Titans their chances decrease by a lot. Then you throw in your JV QB vs Indianapolis Colts QB Andrew Luck who has won his 9 of 10...you have no shot.

Yes the Music City Titans have a nasty "D" and I will second that notion but Andrew Luck (pictured right) has been playing behind center and in the pocket better than anyone and they say no one wants to play the Baltimore Ravens well no one wants to play Luck and Indy as well!

Luck was 24 for 35 for 285 yards and 3 scores with an INT and he will throw you at least one per outing but that comes with the package. Its like you order a Combo meal and you tell them hold the drinks well you get charged anyway right.

Back Luck's dominance with a Colts run game as RB Marlon Mack rushed for 119 yards on 25 carries and who need Le'Veon Bell....lol! The Colts have a fast "D" led by rookie tackling machine and "Monsters Inside Tackling Dummies" here at Bluedude Sportstalk Darius Leonard from South Carolina State the same school that produced the "Big Cat" from the MEAC current Steelers DT Javon Hargrave.

Titans "D" finally caved in and with Blaine Gabbert at QB you would have thrown the towel in as well. "Gabby" was 18 for 29 for 165 yards and remember the Sports Illustrated Cover with Cam Newton, "Gabby" and Jake Locker on it talking "Choose One"...that so far from the truth...

Derrick Henry rushed for 93 yards on 16 carries but playing from behind that vertical passing game has to be right on and in sync and it was just a bad match up with no Mariota. Tennessee now has the Elephant in the Room....do you pay Mariota that QB Bag and before they should talk to the Vikings and Broncos for Starters the Players not the GM's or the guy making the calls.

Indy moves on to play the AFC South Divisional Rival Houston Texans this coming weekend...

Bucs fire Koetter as "Black Monday" is now "Black Sunday" with "Making Noise" as the Glazer's and Tampa Bay Buccaneers "Fire the Cannons" on the Dirk Koetter era! @Buccaneers #KoetterOutAsBucsLeadMan #GoBucs #ItsABucsLife #FireTheCannons #BlackSunday

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Glazer Family makes quick decision and relieves Buccaneers Lead Man Dirk Koetter of his coaching duties after Tampa misses Winning Time again and that is 11 seasons and counting.

Koetter was the Offensive Coordinator under then Bucs Lead Man Lovie Smith (currently University of Illinois Football Lead Man)when Lovie was fired and Koetter named the Lead Man as the Glazer's were following the trend of an Offensive Mind with then Rookie Jameis Winston.

Koetter will leave Tampa at 19-29 clip and that was headed in the wrong direction from the jump. The Glazer's should have let Lovie played his time out but you know how that is they darn there did the same thing to Tony Dungy as we are all creatures of habit.

All of a sudden Black Monday has become Black Sunday and why start the new year off with a lead man that will not be leading anything in 2k19...stay tuned!  

VIDEO Mahomes joins 50 TD Club!..."Monsters Inside the Pocket" as the Mahtomic Bomber of Arrowhead and #ChiefsKingdom joins Tom Terrific and Peyton in the 50 Touchdowns Club in only his first full season! @PatrickMahomes5 #Chiefs #ChiefsKingdom #WreckEm #MahtomicBomber #ArrowheadBusiness #MonstersInsideThePocket

Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes had one thing on his mind Sunday at Arrowhead playing in front of the home folks and that was capture the AFC West Crown and the Chiefs and Mahomes did that. Now Chiefs Nation had another thing on their mind and it wasn't about will but when will Mahomes hit #50 in TDs (5,000 plus yds passing) to join only Payton Manning and Tom Brady for 50 TD Passes in a season club.

Mahomes hits WR DeMarcus Robinson in the 3rd frame with the Chiefs up 21-3 on Raiders Nation and 89 yarder for TD #50 as he joins the elite and for second year QB and starting just one game last season that is beyond special.

As for the 50 TD Club powered by "Chasing Canton"...

1. Peyton Manning 55 TD #BroncosCountry 2013 #1 Target WR Demaryius Thomas (14 TD)

2. Tom Brady 50 TD #GoPats 2007 #1 Target Randy Moss (23 TD)

3. Patrick Mahomes 50 TD #ChiefsKingdom #1 Target Tyreek Hill (11 TD)

Note: Mahomes to Hill just 11 times show you the Mahtomic Bombers Ball Distribution off the charts as Chiefs TE Travis Kelce had 10 TDs...

Mahtomic Bomber to D-Rob 89 yd TD 


Bulls 89 Raptors 95 F..."West Side Story Report" as Bulls hang tough and close enough to grab a "W" playing "North of the Border" it was too much Siakam and the "Klaw" of @NBHoops as Dinosaurs prevail late! #CHIvsTOR #BullsNation #WeTheNorth #WestSideStoryReport #GoBulls #TheSix

The Chicago Bulls coming out of the motel did nearly everything right for once to grab victory out of the motel but fell short. Chicago didn't shoot a good percentage but they held the home team the Toronto Raptors down as well. In the end it was too much Kawhi Leonard dba "Klaw" of New Balance Basketball as the Dinosaurs beat the Bulls 95-89.


Bulls led a low-scoring affair 20-14 after one and was down just 40-39 at the break. They stayed close after three down 68-65 with Lauri Markkanen ( 18 pts 10 rebs) and Warren Carter Jr. (16 pts 11 rebs) leading the way.

Toronto led 81-73 with just over 5 minutes remaining in the game as Chicago cut that to 85-82 with 1:21 to go in the 4th. The Bulls continued to foul and put the Raptors on the line and to their credit Toronto hit the free throws as they walk away with a 95-89 "W"!

Raptors All-Star Kawhi Leonard dba "Klaw" led all scorers with 27 points and nine boards, Raptors PF Paschal Siakam added 20 points and a dozen boards with both Fred VanVleet and Danny Green chipping in with 10 points apiece. Bulls just could not get over that hump with that one guy to lead them but they are improving.

Bulls fall to 10-27 as the raptors move to 27-11 and that's good for 2nd place in the East behind the Greek Freak led Milwaukee Bucks...       

Browns 24 Ravens 26 F..."A QB Driven League" + Charm City Ground Transportation = #RavensFlock R.P.O. led by "Video Game" Lamar!...We just saw the Future at QB in the AFC North Baker vs Lamar both going Video Game Moments as the #DawgPound almost shocked all of B-More and the Big Crab Cake!...#PurpleBrowns move to #Fight4Lamar and #Fight4Vince and #AFCNorth Champs! #CLEvsBAL #Browns #RavensFlock #DawgPound #PurpleReign #PurpleBrowns #AFCNorthChamps


Charm City 
Ground/Air Transportation
dba
#RavensFlock 


The future is now in the AFC North as one QB as characterized as the Future of Dawg Pound Business the other was characterized anywhere from a WR to what is he and now the one QB that was the WR or what is he moves into winning time and imagine that!

NFL Scouts they miss all the time and not calling by names because who cares but Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson (pictured left) is another on the long list of Picks by Ravens soon to be retired President Ozzie Newsome who just doesn't miss on picks especially high picks.

Jackson threw for 179 and ran for 90 as that Ravens R.P.O. will now get a shot at the #Fight4Lamar and possibly the #Fight4Vince and no one wants to play the Purple Browns moving forward. Ravens RB Kenneth Dixon led the ground attack with 117 yards on a dozen carries. Gus Edwards added 76 yards on a dozen more carries as Charm City Ground Transportation racked up 296 yards on 47 carries on the day and that is moving to Wilson pigskin by ground.

Browns QB Baker Mayfield picked apart that Ravens "D" the same "D" that Philip Rivers had major trouble with just two weeks ago. Baker threw for 376 yards on 23 for 42 with # TDs and 3 INTs. That last INT cost the Browns at a 8-7-1 final W-L and a Steelers AFC North Championship but Baker is playing to win forget what's going on in the 'Burgh!

Browns WR Jarvis "Bless'em" Landry caught 5 Wilson pigskins for 102 yards leading the Air Attack but no ground game for Cleveland. Browns rushed for just 50 yards and that might have cost them late.

Now the Ravens celebrate the AFC North Championship and will get a rematch with the Los Angeles Chargers in their house the big Crab Cake...stay tuned!   

Eagles 24 Redskins 0 F...#FlyEaglesFly needed #DaBears to beat the Kirk Cousins led #SKOL and they did and Philly Pro Football w/Ski Masks at Fed Ex took care of the Catfish/Bottom Feeding-like #HTTR!..."A QB Driven League" believes in QB Foles!...Did Fed Ex sound like the "LINC" or is that just me? #PHIvsWSH #FlyEaglesFly #HTTR #NFCEast #Fight4GeorgeWildCard#2 #EaglesAreIn

Underdog Masks or Ski Masks the 2k18 Philadelphia Eagles showed us all why they are the defending champs. Humility, Resolve, Professionals and the ability to handle Adversity of all sorts gets them into "Winning Time" and it also helps they have QB #2 that would be straight butta not margarine for more than a few teams in Nick Foles. 

A slow and methodical approach the Eagles with at least 30K plus Eagles fans in attendance at Fed Ex Field took apart the Washington Redskins slowly but surely as they hit #HTTR by frames 3-7-7-7 and that is following the game plan and not getting ahead of yourself.

Eagles QB Nick Foles threw for 21 yards on 28 for 33 with 2 TDs and an INT. It was that ground game that will carry the Eagles as Wendell Smallwood, Darren Sproles and Josh Adams all had their hands in the pile and moved the pile right through that Redskins "D"!

Seven different players caught the Wilson pigskin and it will take that and then some to defeat the Chicago Bears next week in Chi-City. Can the Eagles solve Vic Fangio's "D" and contain verified and certified Red Jersey Collector at Bluedude Sportstalk in Khalil Mack who was last seen before the Vikings Game today in Chicago Bulls full get up at his crib?

Redskins need to start at the top and even owner Dan Snyder cutting the checks needs to evaluate himself on down as I am hearing the Business Side of #HTTR will be the fall...which has nothing to do with that 53-man roster....stay tuned #DCFamily not taking just Washington Wizards either!  

Bengals 13 Steelers 16 F..."Triple Diamond Chronicles" going "Dazed and Confused" as Bengals vs Steelers turns into the Fan Appreciation Game as the Black & Yellow needed help and almost received it from the "Dawg Pound"!...Steelers escape Who Dey and the play was a microcosm of the Steelers Seasons..."Dazed and Confused"! #CINvsPIT #SeizeTheDey #HereWeGo #TripleDiamondChronicles #SteelersNation #SteelersFamily #2K19NFLCombine #2K19NFLDraft


They always use the old adage "just get in" and I always say when you back in you back right back out and it doesn't take long. The Pittsburgh Steelers 2k18 Season could be characterized by a myriad of items but just sticking to how the season unfolded I was "Dazed and Confused"!

Steelers started today in the 8th slot in the #Fight4Lamar needing help from the Cleveland Browns to get into "Winning Time" and a win by the Steelers and Browns would also give Pittsburgh another AFC North Crown.

Browns gave it their best shot losing 26-24 but not after Cleveland put up a fight and putting everyone on notice that the "Dawg Pound" will be a force in the #Fight4Lamar and maybe even picked next season to win the AFC North.



Pittsburgh with the win moving to 9-6-1 and headed right to the 2k19 NFL Combine and 2K19 NFL Draft has some decisions to be made. Mike Tomlin is going nowhere but the rest of his staff needs to be shuffled around at least the defensive side of the Wilson pigskin. Mr. Rooney and the Staff has to figure that out and they will as stability and continuity is always at the South Side Complex inn some cases too much ever so slightly.

Steelers Nation your "Triple Diamond Chronicles" we will be back here and there throughout 2k19 as we cover everything Steelers moving into the 2k19 Calendar Year and the NFL Combine and Draft...#HereWeGo!

Note: Steelers QB Big Ben Roethlisberger hits 5,000 passing yards and 34 TDs as he continues to ad to his HOF Resume and he is all but certain coming back for the 2k19 season one would think.   

Jaguars 3 Texans 20 F..."A QB Driven League" as #Texans clinch the AFC South in Week 17 and holds the #3 Slot in the AFC and will host a n AFC Wild Card Game next weekend! #JAXvsHOU #Duuuval #Texans #AFCSouthChamps

The Houston Texans after a slow first frame made quick work of the down and out Jacksonville Jaguars 20-3 on Sunday at NRG Stadium in Harris County, Texas. It was Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins (pictured below) cementing his status as a Top 5 Wide Out in the NFL as he grabbed a dozen pigskins for 147 yards and not all on Jags Pro Bowl CB Jalen Ramsey.

Texans QB Deshaun Watson threw for 234 yards and ran for another 66 yards and if he has to do that to move that Texans Offense next week in Winning Time then so be it. Texans RB Lamar Miller rushed for 56 yards on 17 carries but next week that run game has to be more effective.

The Jags end a disappointing season to say the least and the "Elephant in the Room" are the Jags committed to QB Blake Bortles as the Direct Deposits are but something is telling me the Jags are not. That Defense just needs to get back to themselves and that starts with discipline and stop all that chatter. When your winning its cool when your losing shut up and play ball that is all!

Jags will get a high draft pick and the 2k19 NFL Draft is loaded in the trenches and at Backer...

AFC North

Ravens lead and need to beat the Browns in Baltimore to win the AFC North and punch their ticket. It's all ready in the bag as Ravens have already sold Playoff Tickets and why not can't bale them for just being prepared. 

Steelers must beat the Bengals and the Ravens lose the Steelers are in as AFC North Champs and a Wildcard Home Game...Steelers lose and Ravens lose Ravens win the AFC North!

AFC South

Texans must win to win the AFC South and right now they are #3 which means they would be hosting a Wild Card Game. They lose and the Titans or Colts win the the AFC South is up for grabs as the Wild Card will go to one of these teams regardless unless they tie...

Colts and Titans winner Wild Card that simple...

AFC East 

Patriots #2 in AFC...

Chiefs win they are AFC West Champs and #1 overall....Chargers win and Chiefs Lose the Chargers are AFC West Champs and #1 overall...They both lose Chiefs would move to #2 overall and Chargers stay at #5 overall

#4 Oklahoma 34 #1 Alabama 45 F...OU spots 'BAMA 28 and #BoomerSooner couldn't get to the Boom or the Sooner as #RollTide #BuiltByBama sets their sights on Levi's Stadium and the National Championship Rooooooooooooooll Tiiiiiiiide! #OUvsBAMA #BoomerSooner #RollTide #OUDNA #OutworkYesterday #CaptialOneOrangeBowl

Before anyone could get comfortable in their seats talking fans the Alabama Crimson Tide came out like they were just removed from one of those patented weekday practices in Tuscaloosa with everyone talking the fourth quarter.

'Bama went up 28-0 before the Oklahoma Sooners knew what hit them and Heisman Winning Sooners QB Kyler Murray to his credit and that Sooners Offense made the game respectable outscoring the Tide 34-17 after the fact.

Murray threw for 308 yards on 19 for 37 with two TDs. If Murray didn't have the legs to run like he did that 'Bama Front would have had double digit Red Jersey Collections. He also ran for 109 yards on 17 carries as Sooners WR Ceedee Lamb caught eight Pigskins from Murray for 109 yards and a TD.

That 'Bama Offense ran wild and called Slants on every route as that Boomer Sooner Secondary had no answers. Roll Tide QB Tua Tagovailoa was a somewhat quiet and amazing 24 for 27 with 318 yards and extremely accurate as he has been all season long. 'Bama RBs Damien Harris (13 car 48 yds 2 TD) and Najee Harris ( 6 car 45 yds) were not the story as Josh Jacobs was carrying the Pigskin fifteen times for 98 yards.

Biletnikoff Award Winner (Nations Top WR in College Football)  'Bama WR Jerry Jeudy (only a Sophomore) had just 4 grabs for 73 yards and a TD as three 'Bama WRs scored at least once. DeVonta Smith led with six grabs for 104 yards with RB Jacobs also was a factor in the passing game hauling in four pigskins for 60 yards and a score.

All that Offense and the baddest man on the field was Outland Trophy Winner (College Football's Best Interior Lineman) 'Bama's Quinnen Williams dominated with plenty of help. They kept that high-powered Sooners Offense in check for the most part.

That 'Bama Secondary also played well and Oklahoma Sooners leading WR Hollywood Brown (Cousin of Steelers WR Antonio Brown) was a non-factor as it appeared he was injured liming noticeably throughout the game on the sideline.

Now Roll Tide gets the Clemson Tigers for all the marbles as the interior linemen in this game is off the charts as well as the speed and skilled guys...see you January 7th, 2k19 in Santa Clara, California! 

#3 Notre Dame 3 #2 Clemson 30...Goodyear Cotton Bowl in Jerry's House was dominated by #AllIn #ClemsonFamily and @ClemsonFB as they roll the Fighting Irish!...Establishing the LINE of SCRIMMAGE Notre Dame never did that and dominated in the trenches!....Clemson's SPEED was all over the Eye Test! @ClemsonFB #AllIn #ClemsonFamily

@ClemsonFB 
#AllIn #ClemsonFamily

#3 Notre Dame 3 #2 Clemson 30 F


Where do you start as the Notre Dame Fighting Irish was just manhandles to but it mildly in Arlington, Texas at Jerry's House at the 2k18 Goodyear Cotton Bowl. The Clemson Tigers took that "Wait and See" Approach filling out the Irish in the first frame then from the 2nd frame on just took it right to South Bend U with a convincing 30-3 "W" and it wasn't that close.

Clemson ran for 211 yards as All-SEC RB Travis Etienne went for 109 yards of that on 14 carries and a score. Freshman QB Trevor Lawrence (pictured right) racked up 327 yards on 27 for 39 but it was that big play ability from the Clemson wide outs led . by Justyn Ross who caught a 52-yd TD and a 42-yd TD from Lawrence with Tee Higgins corralling a 19-yd TD pass.

Etienne the with the game in hand ran for a 62-yd TD and it was that Clemson "Speed" that was evident in this one. The Irish looked a few steps slow. ND also lost their All-American DB Julian Love in the first frame and that was huge for that Irish secondary.

ND just had 248 total yards of offense and 160 of that was through the vertical passing game. They ran for 88 yards as Irish RB Dexter Williams for the first time all season was under wraps by that Clemson "D".

Now the Tigers wait for the winner between Alabama/Oklahoma and that game will be January 7th, 2k19 at the Big Levi's 501 Straight Leg Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California.

The 2k18 Oklahoma Sooners get here not by accident as they went through the high-scoring Big 12 and then had to wrestle those demons talking #HookEm Horns in of all places not back in Dallas but Arlington, Texas near Dallas. They pulled that out and between that and this game they also have the 2k18 Heisman Trophy Winner in QB Kyler Murray and #OUDNA that for starters and that's Winning at the N.Y.C.

Mavericks 112 Pelicans 114 F..."Logo Watch" N.O.P Smoothie King Center as Luka Doncic was almost the "HERO" but not on the "BROW" Watch smack dab in the Pelicans Nest no no no take that 48-Piece Carryout with no Drinks back to Dallas with you and Shark Tank that!...A.D. goes 48 and Luka 34 and y'all wanna talk about Dat Dude in Milwaukee stop that! #DALvsNOP #MFFL #DoitBig @Luka7Doncic @AntDavis23 #GeauxPels #StateBirdofLouisianaHoops

They just went at it earlier in the week and the "Brow" took an "L" in Dallas as he went 32 points and grabbed eighteen boards. See everyone talking about the new dude the Rookie in Serbian Luka Doncic and rightfully so. Be careful though because the best player in the NBA right now not named LeBron James or Kevin Durant even James Harden...that's the "Brow" of State Bird Louisiana Hoops Anthony Davis from #WeAreUK and #BBN Kentucky Wildcats Basketball with Coach Cal and Rupp Arena...the Brooooooooooooooooow! 

A.D. and don't get those initials confused with the great Adrian Dantley from Notre Dame Fame the "Brow" went straight Boiled Crawfish hanging a 48-Piece Carryout for the Mavs and Doncic to take back to Dallas along with that "L"!

To boot Luka thought he had hit the game-winner with a Money Ball late only for Anthony Davis to go And 1 for a 114-112 Pelicans "W". Davis also grabbed 17 boards, waited on 4 tables and stole two Spalding oranges from Dallas.

Doncic hung 34 points including seven money balls with Harrison Barnes adding 21 and Dennis Smith Jr. chipping in with 14 including a monster dunk on #GeauxPels Solomon Hill...who I know what your thinking just catch the video he is #44 in your "Pels" Game day Program!

Julius Randle the Dallas, Texas Native punched 22 points and grabbed a dozen boards for N.O.P. with "Quiet Storm" Jrue Holiday 18 points, seven board and eight helpers. New Orleans moves to 16-20 while Dallas falls to 16-18...

Teddy Bridgewater to start Week 17 for #GoSaints #GeauxSaints #WhoDatNation!..."A QB Driven League" as QB Teddy Bridgewater will start for the Saints on Sunday as 2k19 is his Unrestricted Free Agency Year coming up...Choppa that! @teddyyb_h2o #TeddyBridgewater #GoSaints #GeauxSaints #WhoDatNation #SaintsNation

Teddy Bridgewater it's your Birthday as the New Orleans Saints QB is set to start Sunday NFL Week 17 for #GoSaints as they get the rival Carolina Panthers in the Super Dome. Imagine that he was just in an ambulance with that horrific knee injury wondering if they could save the leg and now he is back starting an NFL Game.

"Bridge" gets the news today well Saints lead man Air Payton told the media today as T.B. had to know Monday as the Saints who will have a bye the first week of the NFL Playoffs dba #Fight4George at Bluedude Sportstalk.

The most interesting dynamic here is Teddy will probably tear it up and both the Minnesota Vikings and Gotham City Jets let this man just walk and gave up on him. I know he doesn't look the part of an NFL QB and that's where we are with this NFL Franchise QB thing and it is what it is. Kirk Cousins $84 million and Case Keenum gets paid but QBs that look like Bridge always fighting every season as some folks wait for the downfall every 16 and it could be year 15 and they have HOF numbers through 15 including some of their own brass and that's calling it like I see it.

Like T-Rex out there what I see a Dinosaur that can't be...Teddy tear them up on Sunday I will be watching!


Tight End Leaders in Receiving Yards as we go "Monsters Inside the Route Tree between the Numbers"...Travis Kelce is the #1 Tight End in the Business but he has some serious Company from #FlyEaglesFly Ertz and #GoNiners Kittle...who?..."Gronk" is dunzo! #TightEnds @TKelce @ZERTZ_86 @gkittle46 #MonstersInsideTheRouteTreeBetweenTheNumbers

The Receivers/Run and Pass Blockers dba Tight Ends in the "Shield" always get lost in the shuffle.  Now the game has evolved into that Vertical Passing Game ten Tight End position has also evolved into Wide Out-Like fame across the board.

Now we get the best of the best and Top 10 Tight Ends talking Yards and one of the TEs has burst onto the scene and had a relatively quiet College Career playing home games at Kinnick Stadium. Then there that dude grabbing Wilson pigskins from QB Tom Brady who has fallen off the map due to injuries in Rob Gronkowski.

Let's go into the Tight End Digits talking Receiving Yards through Week 16:

360 Degrees

Kelce is part of the dynamic Offense led by Chiefs QB the "Mahtomic Bomber" Patrick Mahomes...T.K. is the best TE in the business right now as we go to press!

Kittle out of nowhere has been a god send but the Elephant in the Room is will he be a big target for injured QB Jimmy Garropolo when Jimmy G gets back as he should be? 

Ertz is Carson Wentz and Nick Foles safety blanket and Red Zone Killer hence 8 TDs...

Cook still going and raider QB Derek Car go-to-guy and has been for quite sometime...

Ebron a pleasant surprise but a huge pick-up for QB Andrew Luck that went unnoticed as Ebron did absolutely nothing in the Motor City which looking at the Detroit Lions maybe because its the Detroit Lions and don't kill the messenger...Megatron and Barry wanted to leave at one point as well!

"Gronk" still among the Top 6 and missed two months he is that good and maybe he will turn it on in Winning Time but that switch is hard to find in the NFL...

Graham would have helped that Packers Offense but he went to Injured Reserve early...really early

Rudolph came on late how late try Game try Game #15 of 16 last week...Lol but QB Kirk Cousins is throwing him the rock Lol still laughing! 

Hooper is the forgotten man when you have a WR catching a hundo and going north of 1,500 yards every season (Julio Jones) and now a Rookie in Calvin Ridley that looks like the Truth and Mohammed Sanu...add all those yards and Falcons QB Matty Ice is in the Top 5 in passing yards you think so? 

Njoku from Baker that will ring up through 2019 and until further notice...watch this connection! 

Lakers Rondo out 4-5 Weeks with surgery on Right Ring Finger!..."Squeeze the Orange" as Lakers Coach/Point God "Double R" Rajon Rondo injured during Christmas Night Game vs #DubNation! @RajonRondo #LakeShow #LakerGang #LakerNation #DoubleR #WeAreUk

Los Angeles Lakers PG Rajon Rondo out indefinitely 4-5 weeks with a ligament issue in his right ring finger. Lakers are reporting Rondo hurt the finger on Christmas Night vs the Golden State Warriors.

Now we move forward with Lakers Business and now we get to see the growth of that young Lakers Core which is a good thing. Lonzo Ball, Kyle Kuzma, Brandon Ingram and Josh Hart will be tested and they should be ready for the test. This will only help the Lakers moving towards Winning Time mid-April.

King James will be out for an extended period time most likely with a fragile Groin Injury and the Lakers and Coach Luke Walton are on the clock...

Steelers PK Boswell out Week 17 vs #SeizeTheDey!..."Triple Diamond Chronicles" goes M. Night Shyamalan as Steelers PK the "Boz" out Week 17 vs Bengals with Lower Body Injury! #ChrisBoswell #HereWeGo #SteelersNation #TheKickerInTheNews

Just like that the strange Pittsburgh Steelers Season has taken a turn down and one wonders if M. Night Shyamalan produced this 2k18 Steelers Seasons called "Steelers and blistery cold Three Rivers" . Who knew or is it nerves or trying to get out of town still with his guts intact as Steelers Place Kicker Chris Boswell is ruled out of Sunday's Game due to a lower body injury.

Reports are no one but the Steelers Medical knows what "Boz" is going through the Steelers have signed Matt McCrane (pictured right) from Manhattan U dba Kansas State University Wildcats. McCrane went undrafted in 2k18 and was signed by the Arizona Cardinals only to be released and picked up for one week by Chuckie and the Oakland Raiders.

Back to Steelers Business an not looking past this game "What If" the Steelers get into Winning Time as the Baltimore Ravens are already selling Playoff Tickets and Browns QB Baker Mayfield is worried about his first head coach...this needs to go the big screen really! 

NFL Draft 2k19 as a "A QB Driven League" lines up the Draft Order after NFL Week 16 and the Top 10 PICKS are in!...Who is at the top and draft needs right off the dome! #BeRedSeeRed #GoNiners #Jets #RaiderNation #OnePride #GoBucs #BillsMafia #GiantsPride #Duuuval #InBrotherhood

The NFL Playoffs are about to jump off but for some teams its the Football Operations Department that will be on the road in full force come January while other squads might be preparing to get to Atlanta for the Big Bowl.

"A QB Driven League" only at Bluedude Sportstalk goes NFL Draft Order after NFL Week 16 with one week still to go. The ten teams we know that are pretty much locked in 1 through 10 as we also get to a one each team might need heading into the 2k19 NFL Draft!

2K19 NFL Draft




1. Arizona Cardinals #BeRedSeeRed

A QB is in place in QB Josh Rosen and bis #1 Target of the future in #GigEmNation All-American Christian Kirk . Will Lead Man Steve Wilks be back? 

Pick: DE/Rush End Nick Bosa #Buckeyes
(pictured above)

2. San Francisco 49ers #GoNiners

QB Jimmy G will be back and they are not going QB as he has a TE in George Kittle. Maybe Defense Line or LB here a RB but not in Round 1...

Pick: DT Quinnen Willliams #RollTide

3. N.Y. Jets #Jets

They have a QB and they are in need of OT or DE/Rush End...

Pick: OT Jonah Williams #RollTide

4. Oakland Raiders #RaiderNation 


They need everything and they have picks but the perfect pick would be this guy...(White and Bosa the Top 2 Players in the Draft hands down can't miss prospects)

Pick: ILB Devin White #LSU

5. Detroit Lions #OnePride

QB Matthew Stafford is still going and they have offensive weapons. With lead man Matt Patricia a defensive mind they go lockdown CB Island...

Pick: CB Greedy Williams #LSU

6. Tampa Bay Buccaneers #GoBucs

They will not keep QB Famous Jameis Winston barring some miracle but Oregon QB Justin Herbert as of two days ago is returning to Eugene for his senior season... Defense and go Free Agency for a QB you would think...

Pick: DT Ed Oliver #GoCougs 

7. Buffalo Bills #BillsMafia 

Josh Allen has a chance a real chance and he needs protection...but an OLB would be nice

Pick: DE/OLB Josh Allen #WeAreUK to go with Edmunds the 2k18 Pick with QB Allen 

8. N.Y. Giants #GiantsPride

G-Men needs O-Line help bad and they have plenty of defenders...

Pick: OT Greg Little #HottyToddy

9. Jacksonville Jaguars #Duuuval

A QB but where in this draft which would set you back even further as I look for Eli Manning possibly to land here...A shocker

Pick: CB DeAndre Baker #CommitToTheG as Jalen Ramsey is gone not going to give him his bag...

10. Atlanta Falcons #InBrotherhood


Defense and upfront...They were banged up in the secondary and if CB 
Baker from Georgia is gone its D-Line

Pick: DT Rashan Gary #BigBlue


  


1992 Steelers RT Leon Searcy as "Triple Diamond Chronicles" goes 1990s Steelers First Rounders as Leon was Pick #11 Overall in Round 1 from the "U" Coral Gables!...Steelers grabbed Clemson All-American RILB LeVon Kirkland in Round #2 #38 Overall! #LeonSearcy #LeVonKirkland #HereWeGo #SteelersNation #TripleDiamondChronicles @CanesFootball #ItsAllAboutTheU @ClemsonFB #AllIn

The Pittsburgh Steelers wasted no time in 1992 as they grabbed All-American Right Tackle Leon Searcy from the Miami Florida University Hurricanes from that dominant Dennis Erickson Canes Football Teams.

Searcy (Pictured left at the "U" Coral Gables) joined a team in transition as this was also the first year for Steelers lead man Bill Cowher as the late great Chuck Noll retired after the 1991 season. Searcy didn't play much his rookie season as he played back up right tackle to current Steelers T.V. and Radio Analyst. That O-Line was led by two pro-bowlers in Center and NFL HOF Dermontti Dawson and RG Carlton Haselrig.

Note that Steelers 2nd rounder in the 1992 NFL Draft was a Home Run in Clemson All-American RILB Levon "Built like a Nose Tackle" Kirkland as he went #38 overall. Kirkland backed up David Little and Hardy Nickerson in the middle of Steelers D-Coordinator Dom Capers 3-4 Zone-Blitz Attack.

Searcy would start the next three seasons and would leave in Free Agency in 1996 to the Jacksonville Jaguars. We would go onto lose to the Dallas Cowboys led Jimmy Johnson Team in the Super Bowl in 1996 (1995 Season) 27-17.
