Bill O'Brien Had No Choice
Yesterday, Brian Hoyer played one of the very worst games by an NFL quarterback in the playoffs that I’ve ever seen.

Deion Sanders Says Vontaze Burfict "Owes The Media" Answers

Jeremy Maclin And J.J. Watt Both Leave Game With Injuries On The Same Play
J.J. Watt, who’d just spent a little bit on the sideline right before this play nursing a groin injury, had to stop his rush halfway through due to a flare up.
