  1. Ridiculous to even ponder the idea. 3-7 record with many blowouts. Add in the decision to start Peterman in game 1 and keep him around through week 10. Pure drivel.
  2. Graham requested the interview.
  3. Top 10 Comeback Player of the Year Candidates By Chris Wesseling, Around the NFL Writer The 2017 NFL season was unfortunately marred by a litany of injuries to established superstars and promising newcomers, too often leaving viewers pining for excitement and excellence. Now that the majority of those players are not only healthy but also thriving, we have experienced a more entertaining, higher caliber of football in 2018. One byproduct of that phenomenon is a crowded race for Comeback Player of the Year. I've been writing iterations of this article for several years, and this is clearly the most impressive collection of stars vying for a nebulous honor. Since 1972, when Pro Football Weekly began handing out the award, quarterbacks have won roughly half of the time. As a general rule, running backs must beat the odds to turn in an especially productive campaign after overcoming a debilitating knee injury (Adrian Peterson, Willis McGahee, Garrison Hearst). Wide receivers and tight ends are typically afterthoughts barring a career year (Randy Moss, Steve Smith, Keenan Allen) on the heels of a disappointing season. Every decade or so, a defensive luminary crashes the party. The triad of Andrew Luck, J.J. Watt and Peterson have distanced themselves from the pack in the first 10 weeks of the 2018 season. My personal rankings shift by the week, with each marquee player taking a starring turn. The final results will likely come down to late December, with voters waiting to see which player helps catapult his team into the postseason. Without further ado, let's examine the top 10 candidates for Comeback Player of the Year honors.
  4. He's referiing to this TBN interview from March: The O.J. Simpson interview: On prison, 'retirement' and football

  6. HIGHLIGHT PODCAST: The Tim Graham Show_111418 | WHLD-AM (1:42:13) Today on the Tim Graham Show HIGHLIGHT PODCAST, we were joined by the for-sure, One and ONLY OJ Simpson, LIVE from Las Vegas. He spoke with us for a majority of the first hour about things from his life now and what he is up to as well as his takes on the modern and current NFL and RB’s like Leveon Bell. We were also joined by Joe Buscaglia Sports Director of WKBW Channel 7! He lent us all of his Bills analysis and more and was a great guest!
  7. He didn't say anything about winning on Monday at his presser. He mentioned just what I said the focus is with the team sitting at 3-7.
  8. The emerging youth movement says no to every word of this. Allen is starting regardless as they focus on player development straight from McDermott's mouth. You want to take issue with this, I suggest you contact him.
  9. Chiefs-Rams Is The Week 11 Super Bowl — But Probably Not The Actual Super Bowl In a showdown of 9-1 teams, the Rams will now host the Chiefs in Los Angeles after the game was relocated from Mexico City. By Neil Paine There’s a new team atop FiveThirtyEight’s NFL Elo rankings this week, and it’s the one we discussed in this space last time around — the red-hot New Orleans Saints. Fresh off an impressive victory over the Los Angeles Rams, New Orleans turned around and walloped the Bengals 51-14 in Cincinnati. Based on how they’ve been playing recently, there’s no team more deserving of the No. 1 slot than Dem Saints. However, New Orleans is also the fourth different team to hold the top spot in Elo so far this year, joining the Patriots, Eagles and Chiefs. That’s tied for the most handoffs of the No. 1 spot through Week 10 of a season since 2002 (when five separate teams held No. 1 to that point in the schedule). So we still don’t have a great sense of who exactly will be meeting up in Atlanta in February. In fact, there’s still a decent chance it might just be the two teams that are scheduled this week for an epic Monday Night Football clash — the Chiefs and Rams. Both teams sport 9-1 records, and they have similar strengths and weaknesses. According to Pro-Football-Reference.com’s Simple Rating System (SRS) metric, the Chiefs rank second in the league on offense and 19th on defense; the Rams rank third in offense and 14th on defense. K.C. is led by a couple of 23-year-olds: quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who leads the NFL in passing yards, and running back Kareem Hunt, who ranks fourth in rushing. L.A.’s pair are both 24: QB Jared Goff (second in passing yards) and RB Todd Gurley (first in rushing).
