Is there a reason Cowboys are running every ball with time running out?

Because Dak will throw an interception?

In 2022, Sean Payton predicted that Teddy Bridgewater would eventually replace Tua Tagovailoa as starting QB in Miami.

"I think at some point we'll see another starting QB in Miami. And they played well with Tua, but Teddy Bridgewater, who I've had before, he's an outstanding player".

Today, Tagovailoa and the Dolphins offense set franchise highs in points and yards against Payton's Denver Broncos.

Teddy Bridgewater is the backup in Detroit and Payton's Broncos are 0-3 to start the season.

Does anyone know a good place to catch highlights? Decent length, thinking 8-10 mins so covers the key plays but a bit more.

NFL YouTube channel? Usually around 12 minutes long.

Chandler Jones needs help!!

Pass rusher Chandler Jones went live on X, formerly known as Twitter, early Thursday morning and made unsupported allegations about members of the Las Vegas Raiders organization during a rambling, 25-minute-long monologue.

The video comes after Jones, 33, wrote in a social media post on Monday that he was recently hospitalized "against my will" by the Las Vegas Fire Department and later taken to a behavioural health center. Jones shared photos of what appeared to be journal entries and a patient bill of rights for a mental health facility.

In his entries, Jones wrote that "the police said that people were concerned about me because of my posts online" and "I'm still confused on what I did wrong."

On Sept. 20, the Raiders placed Jones on the non-football illness list. When asked about Jones last week, coach Josh McDaniels said he had "no updates."

Jones had already been away from the team for two weeks when he went on the NFI list, and he missed the team's final training camp practice on Aug. 31. On Sept. 5, Jones accused the Raiders on Instagram of barring him from team headquarters, stating, among other things, that he no longer wanted to play for the Raiders and had an issue with McDaniels and general manager Dave Ziegler.

Jones has said multiple times he wants to play football but hasn't been allowed to. Previously, he accused Raiders owner Mark Davis of having a "secret" that would reveal why Jones has been away from the team.

Three weeks ago, Jones said in a social media post that the Raiders sent a crisis response team and police officers to his home in Las Vegas. Additionally, he posted that representatives from the NFLPA had attempted to contact him.

The New York Jets are signing veteran free-agent quarterback Trevor Siemian to the practice squad, pending a physical, according to a team source.

Not sure how you say no to Wentz and Ryan or even Colin Kaepernick, who offered his services to their practice squad, if your only plan was to sign Siemian.

Not a great start from the Jaguars offense. Very conservative.

Lets see what the Falcons can do on their first possession.

Not much!

Nice moves by Robinson on that 3rd down but he just comes up short.

Both teams concentrating on the run to start with.

Touchdown Jacksonville!!

Calvin Ridley, it just had to be him, blown coverage finds Ridley wide open.

A couple of good runs from Lawrence earlier on in the drive set that score up.
