Colin Kaepernick Is Cold-Blooded
Colin Kaepernick forgot to strap on his wristband with his team's plays when he took the field for the second half, forcing the 49ers to burn a timeout.

Cool Offsides Penalty Has No Effect On 49ers Win
Joe Buck and Troy Aikman might have underplayed how close the 49ers-Packers game was to giving us extra football.

Andy Dalton Is Just Having A Bad Day
Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton just threw his second pick, and the Chargers have the ball with a 10-point lead nine minutes left in the game. He threw 20 interceptions in the regular season, so these turnovers aren't really an aberration. They're still not helpful, though....

Saints fan Nick Scelfo was at the Linc to watch his team win on a field goal as time expired. He recorded the moments after the Eagles lost, celebrating while being surrounded by Philly fans.

This Is Not What Lambeau Field Currently Looks Like
Many people on Twitter thought that this is was the frigid state of Lambeau Field today, before the 49ers-Packers game. It is not. This AP photo is from Dec. 22. The Packers also put it on Instagram two weeks ago....

How Far Do You Have To Run For It To Count As "A Run"?
I recently read something about running the 100m dash, or some record being set, or maybe I was just looking at that Usain Bolt GIF with the dude smiling his face off because he got a fist bump—the specifics don't really matter; somehow I started thinking about sprinting, is all you need to know—and...
