EndScore Report: In Your Face Rex Ryan and Aaron Rodgers
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Athletes, Editorial, NFL,
On this episode of EndScore Report's "In Your Face," we call out New York Jets head coach Rex Ryan for basically telling Dallas Cowboys fans it wasn't a good idea to show up at MetLife Stadium, insinuating that they may get hurt. What? Idiot. We also blow up Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers' spot for his comments about Jets QB Mark Sanchez. Maybe the Super Bowl champion is getting too big for his britches? HEAR the words that are coming out of our mouths!

Green Bay Packers win Super Bowl XLV
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Athletes, Championship, Super Bowl, Kudos, News, NFL, Playoffs,
The Green Bay Packers defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 31-25 to win Super Bowl XLV. The Packers went into halftime with a 21-10 lead after the Steelers scored a touchdown just before the end of the second quarter. It looked like the Steelers had all of the momentum heading into the second half. However, despite outscoring the Packers after the half, the Steelers couldn't make enough of a comeback to win. If they had, they would have owned the record to come back from the biggest deficit (18 points) in the Super Bowl. Packers QB Aaron Rodgers was the Super Bowl MVP after throwing for 304 yards and three touchdowns without any interceptions, but was also great all postseason, leading the sixth-seeded Packers through three rounds before taking the team to the promised land. Rodgers now has as many Super Bowl victories as former Packers QB Brett Favre, but in addition has something Favre doesn't - Rodgers has the Super Bowl MVP.

Troy Polamalu named AP Defensive Player of the Year
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Athletes, Kudos, News, NFL,
Pittsburgh Steelers defensive back Troy Polamalu was named AP's Defensive Player of the Year, Green Bay Packers linebacker Clay Matthews came in a very close second, losing to Polamalu by two votes. Both players are game-changers and helped lead the top two defenses in the NFL to this year's Super Bowl. However, Polamalu is probably more of a versatile defender, able to sack the quarterback and come up with a big-time interception or hit. Also, Matthews is only in his second season in the NFL and will have many years to win the award.

Green Bay Packers defeat the Chicago Bears and are now Super Bowl bound
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Championship, News, NFL, Playoffs,
The Green Bay Packers went into Soldier Field to play the Chicago Bears and came out the victors in one of sports' greatest rivalries. It was the 182nd meeting between the two NFC North teams and it was a match-up as good as it was going to get - a game that determined who would go to the Super Bowl. In the end, it was the Packers with a 21-14 win, led by Aaron Rodgers and the much ballyhooed Packers defense led by Clay Matthews and a B.J. Raji interception run back for a touchdown. The Packers will meet the Pittsburgh Steelers for the right to be called Super Bowl champions.

Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: NFL, Playoffs,
Chris Sannella and Dennis Velasco break down and make their picks for the NFC Divisional Series, which include the Green Bay Packers versus Atlanta Falcons and Seattle Seahawks versus Chicago Bears. Can Matt Ryan AKA Matty Ice stay cool enough in the face of the Packers defense led by monster backer Clay Matthews in order to win this game? Or will Aaron Rodgers and the rejuvenated running game thanks to James Starks reign supreme on the road? Speaking of on the road, can the Seahawks bring last week's home magic on the road and get another upset win? Or will the Bears and Jay Cutler get revenge for a loss earlier in the season?

NFC Wild Card Weekend Preview - Saints, Seahawks, Packers, Eagles
Posted by Dennis Velasco Categories: Editorial, NFL, Playoffs, Super Bowl,
The NFC Wild Card weekend kicks off with the defending Super Bowl champion New Orleans Saints and Seattle Seahawks mixing it up in the Great Northwest on Saturday, January 8th at 4:30PM ET. There has been much ballyhoo about the Seahawks making it into the postseason as NFC West division champions with a losing record (7-9), the first time that's happened in the NFL's history. Feel bad if you're a Tampa Bay Buccaneers or New York Giants fan, both of whom finished with 10-6 records, but because of the current playoff system will be watching instead of playing.
