The 0-4 Bucs went into Dallas with undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels at quarterback and won 24-16. Bucky Irving ran 21 times for a career-high 165 yards and scored twice on 54 percent of the offensive snaps. Folks, I want the other 46 percent, and I want it before your league reads the snap count.

A viral post about Ben Johnson chugging a soda and crushing the can passed 911,000 impressions. It came from an account whose bio starts with "SATIRE NFL & FOOTBALL NEWS" in capital letters. What Johnson actually did this week was praise Jordan Love. Friends, read the bio first. Then read Friday's injury report.
A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs are Patriots now, Drake Maye has actual weapons, and they open in Seattle against the reigning champions. The only thing nobody can tell me is who is carrying the football.

He said the deal had to be done by camp. Camp came. He reported anyway, on exactly the terms he said he wanted to avoid, and Tampa handed him a reworked year instead of the extension. Folks, this is what declining to use your leverage buys you.
New Orleans handed Chris Olave four years, up to $132 million, with $90 million guaranteed. Friends, forget the headline number. The guarantee is the part that tells you how often they intend to throw him the ball.
