Trashing Andy Reid is a time-honored tradition among fans in Philly, and that's even when the Eagles are successful. That level of angst is nearly incalculable this season, what with the Dream Team staring at a 3-6 record that already includes four losses at home. I can't imagine what the reaction is like right now to what former Eagles quarterback Kevin Kolb told a Philly radio station yesterday. More »

Vikings defensive end Jared Allen got poked in the eye during the third quarter of yesterday's win over the Cardinals. The injury forced him to sit for several plays and to wear a visor to protect his face upon his return.

This is LarryLarryLarryLarry Fitzgerald's 73-yard touchdown from Sunday, as exuberantly described by Gabriel Trujillo of 710 ESPN Deportes Radio in Phoenix. It contains the cadences of a soccer call, and about 800 times the excitement due a Cardinals/Redskins game. [AZCardinals.com] More »

Cam Newton is doing more than just fitting in with the big boys: He threw two touchdown passes to Steve Smith (for 77 and 26 yards) and threw for 198 yards in the first half against the Cardinals in Glendale. He now has 288 passing yards and is on pace to break Peyton Manning's record for most yards in a rookie debut (302). ESPN had better summon the Sex Cam. More »
