Lincoln Riley says "no", but not really.

If I were an Oklahoma fan, I'd be concerned about that response. He basically just said, "We're in the middle of the season. Ask me again after the season."

The Tampa Bay Bucs make me glad I'm not a coach, go back to Fitzmagic.
"We're gonna start Fitz this week. That's what we feel like we need to do to give ourselves the best chance," said Koetter, who would not commit to a starter beyond this week.

"This is just for right now. Right now. I mean, the most important thing we got is this week. We'll just have to see how things go. I don't like switching quarterbacks. That's not in my make-up to switch quarterbacks. But I just feel like we've got to make the switch at this time."

Winston is a bust. Time to move on.

Haslam says Browns are "just rebooting".

Whatever that means. He's trying to imply Haley and Hue were fired for "internal discord".

He then put Gregg Williams in charge of the team. You know, the guy who was nailed in Bountygate, the guy nobody else would ever hire as a head coach, and the guy whose defense was calling him out after this weekend.

Is Haslam vying for worst NFL owner?

More details on the mess in Cleveland and 13 candidates for HC.

We should get a pool going. 14 candidates. The 13 in that article and a "someone else" option.

I think I'd wager on Matt Campbell.

Redskins need a WR or CB. Docston's been a failure at WR, and Norman's dropping off at CB.

I like the Tate trade because I have Alshon Jeffries on my fantasy team. Less attention on him means more points for me.

Not quite what I wanted... but I'll take it.
Redskins trade for Packers S Ha Ha Clinton-Dix
Clinton-Dix, who had started 65 games for Green Bay since being picked in the first round in 2014, is off to Washington for a 2019 fourth-round pick. Clinton-Dix has three interceptions this season, and he was a Pro Bowler in 2016.

We can only hope Bell's holdout is over by 2020.

I swear on all that is holy I thought the exact, same thing.

Ravens' DC takes a shot at Bell.
"There are a lot of stats [since 2015] that the Steelers are actually better without him," Martindale said Thursday. "That might be why he's riding a jet-ski down in Miami right now."
Shots fired!

Gruden isn't backing down.

In his defense, Rome wasn't built in a day. He signed a 10 year contract and we're 8 games into it.

Plus, they look like a solid contender for the #1 pick and have five first rounders in the next two years.

Gruden is either going to be fired in year 4 after tarnishing his legacy or he's going to make everyone eat crow.

So last week I picked up Raheem Mostert on waivers. Thursday, I didn't start him. But he got 16 points before breaking his arm and going on the IR.

Redskins have won 5 games: They have never trailed in those 5 games, at all.

Redskins have lost 2 games: They have never had a lead in those 2 games, at all.

0 lead changes in 7 games.
Still true after 8 games, sadly it was a 3rd never led game.
