Hmmmmmmmmmmmm... 4-2. 0-2 against good teams, 4-0 against mediocre and worse teams.

He could be the Skins coach with that record.

That would actually be 5-2

To be fair the two losses were to the Chiefs and Texans, maybe the 2 best teams in the AFC. I’m not sure how I feel about that right now. I think Freddy Kitches as the OC has been the coach making the biggest difference but it might be possible that Williams is a better head coach than DC. He’s definitely toned down his over the top antics that he pulls as a DC.

Redskins almost allowed Huawei to install free wifi in luxury suites at FedEx field until the government said no.
Two years after a congressional report labeled Huawei Technologies Co. a national-security threat, the Chinese firm unexpectedly scored a big-name ally in Washington.

It was the Redskins, the capital’s National Football League franchise. Huawei reached an agreement in 2014 to beam Wi-Fi through the suites at the team’s FedEx Field, in exchange for advertising in the stadium and during broadcasts.

It was a marketing coup for a company hankering to beef up its meager U.S. business and boost its image inside the Beltway. But the deal didn’t last long.

A government adviser read about the partnership. He knew the FedEx Field suites were a frequent haunt for lawmakers and senior officials across many agencies. So he triggered an unofficial federal complaint to the Redskins, who quietly tore up the deal.

Cleveland is playing a good team finally and doesn't look as awesome as they had.

Meanwhile, Tomlin's out here Tomlining to the Bengals.

Mariotta out with career threatening injury.

Bucs are committed to losing.

Also, Cleveland got robbed on that goal line stand. Why would the officials blow the whistle? Should have been a TD.

That was huge!!

Also this billshit offense Baltimore is running is completely unsustainable. Lamar Jackson is having an RG3 type rookie season but will be absolutely useless in a couple of years after the hits start taking their toll.

Fuck u Ravens! Browns are the future of the AFC North!

100% agree.

Got to admit, they look the part.

That's a catch by Jarvis. Let's see if the NFL overturns him to throw the Ravens a bone for the previous shaky review.

In other news, Coughlin shits on Yelton and Fournette.

Rightly so. Fournette is a mouthy bitch. Yelton's a neverwas.

The officials allowed the Ravens DBs to rape Browns WRs on that last drive. Every single play there was obvious defensive holding and PI.

Well shit... it was fun to watch but I hate seeing the Ravens dance around after they beat us, fuck them!

I actually got a rise outta seeing the Steelers players and fans
rooting for the Browns for once. It kinda gave me a soft spot in my heart for them for once and I feel bad for the Steelers.

Everyone drafting 1 through 16 should be embarrassed

Also, those Oakland 1st round trades didn't work out so great this year.

As it turns out, you shouldn't give 1 player most of your money.
