The Two Faces of NFL Free Agency

By / July 17, 2021 / NFL, Scouting

I really don’t like NFL free agency. Yes, it’s exciting seeing teams sign players that they hope will fill important needs at certain positions before the NFL Draft in May. Yes, it gives teams with cap space that had poor records the previous year a way to give their fans hope that playoffs are actually possible the next season. And …

Grateful to Be Mentioned Among Historic Women

By / July 17, 2021 / Life, NFL, Scouting

An GREAT article came out today by Melissa Isaacson on ESPNW regarding the state of women in the NFL, and my contributions were included in the piece. I’m grateful to have contributed to advancements for women, but even more than that, that women who TRULY LOVE sports have a chance to do what they love. At heart I’m just a …

Teaching Football to Women in 30 Minutes

By / July 17, 2021 / Family, New York Jets, NFL, Scouting, Sports

Last night I had a chance to put my football knowledge to work.  I had been invited by Broward Health in Weston Florida to be one of two featured speakers dealing with Food, Fitness, and Football.  Football 101 for women in a 30-40 minute time frame – so I had to pick what I felt were the toughest parts of …

Jets vs Patriots Recap: Catch The Football

By / July 17, 2021 / New York Jets, NFL, Scouting

Biletnikoff, Rice, Largent, Swann, Fitzgerald – Wide Receivers were first known and touted for their “great hands” and route running.  If a ball was thrown their way, anywhere near them, they used their hands to snatch the ball.  They did not catch it with their body.  Today it’s all about speed, speed, speed. Last night in the Jets-Patriot game I …

What a Game: The Jets UNBREAK My Heart

By / July 17, 2021 / Life, New York Jets, NFL, Scouting

It was great to somehow win a game that we so often end up losing! Nick Folk hitting a clutch 48 yard field Goal with 2 seconds left to bring an improbable 18-17 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.  35 seconds before that no one thought we had a chance, down by 2 on our own 20 yard line and …

Connie’s Pep Talk: Week 1 – Jets vs Bucs

By / July 17, 2021 / New York Jets, NFL, Scouting

Unpredictable and Exciting! Opening Day in the NFL is totally unpredictable. I’d like to find the person who thought the Ravens would give up 7 TD passes and would have lost by 30 points if a player on a pick 6 of Flacco hadn’t decided to be a dummy, showboat, and drop the ball casually before he crossed the Goal …

How to Stop the Read-Option? Hit the QB, HARD.

By / July 17, 2021 / NFL, Scouting, Sports

Forget the Tuck Rule or RB Helmet Rule All I heard the past few months were the changes to the “Tuck Rule” and the penalty on the RB lowering and hitting with the crown of his helmet.  It was all over every sports talk show. While at Jet scamp the NFL referees  came and went over all the rule changes with …
