Browns fire Hue Jackson.

About time. They now need to not give the job to Todd Haley.

Lincoln Riley would be an interesting choice, widely credited with being something of an offensive mastermind at Oklahoma, where the offensive production has barely dropped since losing Baker Mayfield (yes that one!) to the NFL this year.

Excellent news. After the promise of the early games we've reverted to form. Whoever takes over, almost by definition they cannot do any worse than Jackson did.

Happy to Williams step in til the end of the season....but really hoping Jeff Fishers name doesn't make the list of HC candidates. Mind you, 7-9, 8-8 every year would be a marked improvement! :D
Little bit concerned about Kitchens stepping up to OC when, by all accounts, hes never held that sort of position before. He was credited with helping Carson Palmer get back to Pro Bowl form though in Arizona '13-16, so hopefully he can get Baker on the right tracks.

Disappointed to see that there was a game of soccer allowed to be played at the hallowed NFL Wembley playing field last night.

All could get messy. Lets hope they don't screw up or lose the top picks they have. Perhaps they are writing off this season to gain another top pick.

My hunch is they won't. I think Dorsey seems to know what he's doing. Get the right coaches in, pick up talent on the offensive line and give Mayfield some targets in the off season and I think we have a playoff contender if not next year then the year after.

Wow...Mark Davis must be really glad he gave Chucky such a massive deal to get him out the commentary booth! :facepalm:

What a mess Lloyd & Harry have made of a franchise that was on the way back up & challenging the AFC....

Raiders looked absolutely toothless last night - & made Nick Mullens look like the 2nd coming of Montana in his first start.

He's deliberately tanking this season. He must be.

3 first round picks in the draft. Be very interesting how they look next season.

It’s been “fun” posting on here as a Bears fan who needs to be in bed at 10 on a Sunday night. But I feel tonight has made it all worth while.

The Saints receiver has just run half the length of the field to scorec a late touchdown, then celebrated by uncovering a hidden cellphone under the goalpost padding, then taking pictures!

15 yard penalty incurred, Rams in great field position to strike back. Mental!

Nail-biting win for the Texans at Denver for 6 in a row after losing the first 3.

Helped somewhat with us making a twice-taken FG and Denver missing a FG to win it at the death.

Concur with all of you guys...the Rams v Saints game has been outstanding.

Was watching Red Zone last night and some of the "tackling" from the Bills and Browns was just embarrassing.

No change there then....

:lolol:

Cohen spent much of the game doubling back on himself and still took them to bits. To be fair to the Bills their discipline and ball retention was equally as bad.
