When he didn't workout for any of the teams at these visits, the jig was up.

I guess the owner was enraged/embarrassed by that Titans/Eagles game. Impulsive rage move. The team likely wins the division, may finish 12-5. I thought the Titans were wise not signing a WR with TWO surgically repaired knees to a long term contract. Eagles are getting a great season out of AJ Brown but they paid $57 million in cash for it if those knees get creaky next year. Risky. He'd get fired if they signed him to that contract, and he's hobbled seasons 2-4 of the contract.

The Eagles and the City of Philadelphia tolerate a lot of violence in and around the stadium on game day. Too much booze, too few cops, and the worst offenders know they can get away with it. I've seen a couple nasty fights simply break out over being in the wrong seat. Should you get punched in the face in front of your kid for being in the wrong seat by mistake? No.

He's a fit on the Colts. At a minimum, Mayfield could throw a 20-yard pass. Right now, that's an impossible task in Indianapolis with Matt Ryan.

I agree. Colorado (and Nebraska) have top of the line athletic facilities and wealthy boosters. I wouldn't consider them poor, ignored programs. It will be interesting to see how they do with real investment at the head coaching position with two guys who have a recruiting pedigree.

I followed Colorado from the mid-80s to the late 90s. They had an amazing run of success under Bill McCartney. That man out-recruited Nebraska, and that's no small feat. Much like Nebraska, Colorado messed that entire program up by leaving the Big 12 Conference in 2011, and probably since they fired Gary Barnett, Colorado insisted on hiring coaches on the cheap that had mediocre to terrible records before hire. I'm happy to see they've decided to spend some money and attracted Sanders.

Eh. Players are plenty talented. It's the increasingly weird play calling that isn't spreading the ball around. Dawson Knox is a talented player, but he gets 2-3 targets a game. The most targets he's had is 7 vs. the Browns. Hines is a talented player but barely sees the field on offense. For as much grief as McKenzie gets, he too more or less gets like 3 targets a game outside of Detroit (10) and Miami (9). The offense has bogged down to Allen, Diggs and Singletary, with occasional sprinkling of the others. There's a game coming where they will need to rely on the supporting cast to get the job done.

Yes. 100%. Besides all the Christmas visuals and the fact that the movie takes place on Christmas Eve. Redemption: John/Holly relationship, Powell redeeming himself shooting Karl after shooting the child earlier in his career Christmas miracles: The FBI shutting off the power to open up the vault, McClane making it out alive. Scrooge: Hans Gruber ruins an otherwise fantastic looking Christmas party.

I know Die Hard is a 34-year old movie, but it makes me sad watching it these days seeing all the actors in it who've passed away. I mostly remember Clarence Gilyard for his role in Walker, Texas Ranger. That show ran for quite some time - 1993-2001.

Kingsbury's offense is a simple college set long figured out by the NFL defensive coordinators. That's why the Cardinals often look like a "go long!" Saturday flag football team that relies on hero ball and one athlete being better than the other athlete (Hopkins). Kingsbury has quietly been one of the NFL's worst coaches.

Dan Campbell and the Macho Man have to be related in real life.

To Ken Dorsey: I know you got a lot of heat for you raging out in Miami, but please start drinking the 30 cups of coffee pre game again. The chill Ken Dorsey designs lame offense.

Klein inactive is a mistake. The linebacker depth after MM isnt inspiring. Klein and Hines are in game shape. There's no reason to be slow rolling their production.

Push or shove, Dorsey/Allen must start trusting players not named Diggs/Davis/Knox. The smart play is to start calling plays for guys like Morris, Gilliam, Hines. They've been open. Hell, start throwing to eligible linemen. I don't care.

The early parallels I see between what I understand of this situation and what transpired in San Antonio is that the player is radio silent. The head coach is giving increasingly awkward explanations. The team activates him. Player still doesn't play. There's no player/Coach presser. Weeks go by and the situation remains static and the disconnect between player and team becomes increasingly evident. I hope this all doesn't come to pass and he's out there for the Lions game and everything is a ok.

IMO, it has similar parallels of the Kawhi Leonard/Spurs disagreement.

The Republicans need to simultaneously walk away from Trump, abortion and the uniparty Washington Republicans (McConnell). Essentially burn the house down, excavate the foundation and start all over. You don't get much farther with DeSantis because he's beholden to the "so-called Republican" anti-American moneyed donors who love the foreign wars, open borders for the slave labor, and globalism. Globalism is anti-American. They will distract you with all the culture war crap while selling every American out to global corporate interests as jobs and wealth move out of this country. It started with NAFTA and it hasn't stopped. I truly wish there was a political party that truly put middle America first. A secure border puts lower-income Americans first. Not sending kids off to stupid wars puts Americans first. Safe cities puts Americans first. Cheap energy puts every American first.

Talented coordinator, bad head coach. The Raiders are a team full of athletes, but few real deal football players.

Bad decision. He has to take a deep breath, relax, and send that pass to Morris for the ten yards.

RSV has been worse in years past, and it's been around for decades upon decades, but the hysteria over RSV happens to directly coincide with new RSV vaccines coming to market for parents all ginned up to hysterics. Every time I see an article about RSV or previously COVID, there's a children's hospital attached to it that go figure, has significant investment in the vaccine to treat it.

Voted "Pretty confident." A loss here, and it *is* time for some panic/urgency, whatever you'd like to call it because that Vikings loss should have been a smelling salt to everyone at OBD this AM.

That's tolerated incompetence, which I loathe more than the incompetence itself. Probably highly paid incompetence that punches out at 5 on the dot every day. Is the 2024 election going to be based on 49 states since Arizona won't get their results in until after inauguration? This slow roll counting should piss off both parties.

It's an evaluation of the contingency plan for Allen if nothing else. The Bills are paying Case Keenum $3.5 million for the "break glass in case of emergency" spot performance. You get 1.1 million for holding the proverbial clipboard. (Barkley). If Keenum plays this weekend, I expect a rough first quarter from him but better performances in 2 through 4.

He's not going to hold up to the rigors of being a freshman senator in Washington. She's always been the brains behind the Fetterman operation. I give it 3-6 months, but she'll be in the seat by the end of 2023.

He's a linebacker. If the Bills picked him up, that's where I'd play him. He's good at run defense, and he may improve in coverage with less territory and responsibility.
