Look At This Football-Watching Dog In A Danny Woodhead Jersey
This pile of limbs packed into a Danny Woodhead jersey was apparently chilling on the couch, watching last night's Colts-Patriots game. You are a good dog, buddy....

It's Funny Because It's Bigger Than A Normal Helmet
Anything for the playoffs. What concussions? No, seriously, what concussions?...

Panthers Write Own Demise With Huge, Fruitless Drives
The Carolina Panthers weren't a total dud in their first playoff appearance since 2008. Their defense sufficiently contained Colin Kaepernick and the 49ers for the most part. But stalled drives killed them. Carolina burned over 17 minutes of game time on two offensive drives, coming away with just t...

Charles Barkley: Patriots Fans Don't Appreciate Their Team
Charles Barkley was hanging around the Patriots locker room after their win last night—apparently he's friends with owner Robert Kraft and Bill Belichick?—so the assorted media got him to answer some football questions. His assessment of New England's fans and media? They're spoiled....

Inside The Mind Of A Real Runner
This week, in what will be a recurring feature of ill-defined frequency, I interview an honest-to-goodness Runner. Or at least a Runner as viewed through my hopelessly simplistic and insecure lens. We talk about how you should run (short answer: "a lot") and why (it's apparently a categorical impera...

Jan Tatar, a former soccer player and father of Red Wings winger Tomas Tatar, died on Friday of a liver ailment at the age of 60. The next day, his son scored the game-winning goal on a rebound against the Kings, honoring his father with a tribute after the score....

Once An Afterthought, LeGarrette Blount Beats The Colts Down
Listed at 250 pounds, LeGarrette Blount is just a pound lighter than the Patriots' starting fullback, James Develin. He's not exactly a scatback. He's more of a supersized bowling ball over which someone had draped a jersey—a "north-south" runner, in scouting parlance, who in last night's 43-22 New ...

Deadspin Up All Night: I Don't Care
Thank you for your continued support of Deadspin. Alkaline Trio: Chicago band. Jay Cutler: Chicago Bear. Coincidence?...

The Patriots Run All Over Colts, Advance To AFC Championship Game
