De Santis Florida.



“This morning, WR Tyreek Hill was pulled over for a traffic incident about one block from the stadium and briefly detained by police,” the team’s X account said in a post. “He has since been released. Several teammates saw the incident and stopped to offer support. Tyreek and all other players involved have safely arrived to the stadium and will be available for today’s game.”

A man in a Lambo is told to get off his car and thrown on the ground, and handcuffed.
The problem (one of the problems) is that there is so little so say. Because everybody knows why.

Side note that must be crazy to be a Dolphins fan walking to game and then seeing him on the ground.

All I've heard was he wasn't wearing his seatbelt...

Scary seeing Tua get concussed last night again. Quite the unfortunate coincidence it came on a hit from Hamlin too.

After what happened a couple of years ago when he returned quickly... I'm sort of hoping we don't see Tua come back this season.

The Raiders head coach is saying he would recommend retirement.
Not a ridiculous idea.

Time to fire the Bengals head coach?
Ok, you lost to the Chiefs and the Ravens, but you lost to them at home.
And your sole win is against the Panthers. By 3 points (IIRC), when Chicago just creamed today.
And you have Burrows, Chase and Higgins.

And in 5 of the last six years your team has started 0-2.
I don't know.

I've always been less on the "fire the coach" side of things. Has he made any mistakes that have cost them the game? They would've beaten last year's #1 seed in the AFC if they hadn't bungled a snap on a field goal in overtime. (Well maybe!) That's not the coach's fault. I've seen most of their games this year and haven't seen anything I would blame him for. The last three years they went to Super Bowl, AFC title game (and easily could have won) and were 9-8 last year with the franchise QB hurt. About 27-28 teams would love for that to be the summary of their last 3 years.

They also lost to the Chiefs (barely) and Commanders, who so far have looked like two of the top three teams this year. No shame in that.

The Patriots loss is hard to defend though :)

Cincinnati have always started slow, and somehow seem to right the ship so I wouldn't be too quick to say fire the coach. Some teams almost seem like September is their pre-season. Chase holding out certainly didn't help.

Technically Minnesota is #1 actually. One of the top two is going to drop this week though (barring a tie)

That is the reason I picked DEN at 4 in the challenge. Because I have no idea of who wins the MIN/DET game.
I'll go with Minnesota because of home field.

Deshaun Watson's season is over after Browns QB suffers ruptured Achilles vs. Bengals

Anyone upset about this anywhere?

I still don't think that cheering an athlete's injuries is proper.

It's a weird bit of radio silence here in the US. He's considered as much an overpaid football player here as he is a sexual predator, who has been getting away with both. It's an odd moment in American football where seemingly most football fans feel bad in some way for the Browns fans.
