NFL draft is a real passing game for quarterbacks

Pompei's NFL power rankings
1. Falcons (2 last week): They aren't getting any style points for the way they have been winning lately, but they are the NFL's only unbeaten. 2. Texans (1): There is no disgrace to losing to Aaron Rodgers when he's on his game like he was Sunday. 3....Tags: Philadelphia Eagles, Aaron Rodgers, Minnesota Vikings, Oakland Raiders, San Francisco 49ers

49ers' Brandon Jacobs goes from seldom seen to out of sight
In a roundabout way, Brandon Jacobs told the San Francisco 49ers how he really felt. And Monday, in a direct way, the 49ers told Jacobs to take a hike. The team suspended the disgruntled running back for the final three games of the regular season,...

By and bye, Adrian Peterson, others in NFL come tantalizingly close
Two thousand steps forward. Two big steps back. On a Sunday when Minnesota's Adrian Peterson became the seventh NFL player to run for 2,000 yards — coming within nine of breaking Eric Dickerson's season rushing record — two teams backpedaled...Tags: Philadelphia Eagles, Minnesota Vikings, Philip Rivers, San Francisco 49ers, NFC East

Colts could be in awkward spot with Chuck Pagano
The story of the 2012 Indianapolis Colts could go from awesome to awkward in a flash. Chuck Pagano is back as coach after nearly three months of treatments for his leukemia, and there's scarcely a more inspiring sight in sports. His good friend, Bruce...Tags: Brandon Browner, Sports, Injuries and Wounds, Mike Shanahan, Leukemia

NFL Week 17 preview: The NFL has gotten the end games right
Three years ago, the 14-0 Indianapolis Colts pulled Peyton Manning in the middle of their 15th game, and, instead of trying for a perfect season, coasted into the postseason with back-to-back losses. It was a prime example of the mail-it-in attitude...

NFL Week 16 preview: Revitalized Seahawks face 49ers
Move over, RG3. Make room for another rookie quarterback sensation . . . RW3. That's Seattle's Russell Wilson, who happens to wear No. 3 and has helped invigorate the Seahawks, just as Robert Griffin III has pumped life into the Washington Redskins....

NFL Week 16: Bruce Arians may be out of a job again, in a good way
Indianapolis is in, Pittsburgh is out, and Colts interim Coach Bruce Arians has to be pinching himself. Arians, fired as Pittsburgh's offensive coordinator after last season, has coached the Colts to a wildly improbable playoff berth one season after...Tags: Philadelphia Eagles, Minnesota Vikings, Victor Cruz, San Francisco 49ers, NFC East

Quarterback change reiterates that NFL is foremost a business
The NFL is a business. Easy to say. Hard to swallow. Nowhere was that more evident this week than in San Francisco, where Alex Smith officially lost his starting quarterback job to Colin Kaepernick, who had filled in for him after Smith suffered a...

Dire straits and narrow victories are the norm in NFL Week 11

NFL punters are being bullied on the block
Through the first half of the NFL season, there have been 14 punts blocked. That might not sound like a lot, but consider there were nine in the entire 2011 season, meaning the league is on track for more than three times as many. Sure, it could be a...Tags: Sav Rocca, NFC South, Sports, Australian Rules Football, Robert Malone

NFL's top teams doing well despite less help from key players
Plenty of NFL tight ends would be happy to switch places with San Francisco's Vernon Davis this season. The 49ers are 6-2 with a two-game lead in the NFC West and look to be in position to make another run deep into the playoffs or beyond. But this isn't...Tags: NFC South, Jim Harbaugh, Connor Barwin, Sports, Dallas Cowboys
