    They cannot believe that Gibbs rose to them.
    Brad Holmes almost breaks the table in excitement as he and Dan Campbell are glad to draft the versatile, explosive Jahmyr Gibbs #NFLDraft

    Contact tracers determined that no #Falcons defender has come within 6 feet of anyone since 2017.
    Sources: The #Falcons-#Bears game is officially on, despite ATL CB AJ Terrell being placed on the COVID-19 reserve list and contact tracing over the last more than 24 hours. All ATL players and personnel are cleared for today’s game. No positives from testing conducted yesterday.

    Nothing proves the necessity of a protest more simply and vividly than an autocrat becoming enraged by that protest.

    The Mike McCarthy #Cowboys era so far: - Didn't watch quite as much film during year off as he told the team. - Hasn't "embraced analytics" so much as sought an analytics endorsement. - Hasn't gotten around to calling his QB after a week on the job.

    If the #Patriots came knocking for the guys at the bottom of my roster during cutdown week, I would rewatch tape of the guys until my eyes bled looking for what I was missing.
    Breaking: #Patriots are trading for Ravens G/T Jermaine Eluemunor, league source confirms. Story soon on @BGlobeSports

    She was never obedient. She was rarely affectionate. She hated 99% of the dogs she ever met. But she was my constant companion for 11 years I will never stop loving her. Rest in peace Beemo.

    What is most surreal about Andrew Luck's retirement right now is that it feels like sad news that a young millionaire is leaving a grueling, dangerous career to go spend time with his wife.

    The #Patriots are paying top-of-market prices for players coming off their best seasons to play major roles. That's the opposite of how it's done. Today is a disaster for them that's being reported as a triumph.

    The Julian Edelman Hall of Fame argument is generally only advanced by 2 sorts of people: 1) #Patriots homers and 2) Folks who mix Edelman, Wes Welker and Danny Amendola into one Gundam slot white guy.

    I don't have a problem with Baker Mayfield staring down Hue Jackson on an NFL sideline. I have a problem with Hue Jackson still being on an NFL sideline.

    Seriously, listening to Antonio Brown get normalized and his return to the NFL justified makes me want to puke.
