DET @ MIA Start: Calvin Johnson You have to. If you’re in the Championship, Calvin is one of the guys that got you there. Big-time players make big-time plays in big-time games. Man, I sounded like Ron Jaworski there. Brandon Marshall Same as above about big-time players. Marshall’s been having a down year, but had [...]

I want to thank Jon Presser of our very own Rant Sports’ Jets Report for taking a New York minute to sit down with me and talk about this Sunday’s game against the Chicago Bears. Jonathan: What do Jets fans think of Rex Ryan? Is he becoming a distraction? Do you think he’s involved with TripGate? [...]

He’s baaaaaaaaack. Is there any doubt that all-world cornerback Darrelle Revis is 100% heathy and back to his dominant self? Revis shadowed superstar receiver Calvin Johnson and held him to one catch on a quick slant in the first quarter and nothing else.
