Chart: A Week In The Insane Life Of An NFL Head Coach
Over on ESPN, Ravens head coach John Harbaugh was kind enough to provide a schedule of his work week leading up to Baltimore's game at Chicago on Nov. 17 (the story will appear in the Dec. 9 edition of ESPN The Magazine). It's not an easy job—Harbaugh spends about 69 hours a week in meetings (or mee...
Would You Do It Again? We Ask Former NFLer Rich Strenger
This is an interview series in which we ask the plaintiffs of the NFL concussion lawsuit one question (and maybe a few more): Knowing what you know now, if you could do it over again, would you still play football?...

Cowboys Player Celebrates Win By Smearing Fake Blood All Over His Face
This is what Cowboys defensive tackle Jason Hatcher looked like right after his team's 24-21 victory over the Giants. That's fake blood all over his face, because Jason Hatcher likes to celebrate victories like a totally normal person, obviously....
Behold! The NFL's Circle Of Parity
It took 12 weeks, but we've reached that point in the season. It's now possible to visualize the NFL's circle of life, where every team has lost to the team preceding it. Any Given Sunday, indeed....
Bill Belichick And The NFL's Unexpected History Of Overtime Kick-Offs
Yesterday was 11 years to the day that Marty Mornhinweg declared that the Lions would kick off to start overtime. Chicago scored on its first series, and Mornhinweg wasn't Lions coach much longer. Yesterday, Bill Belichick pulled a Marty Mornhinweg, with better results....
Chris Long Did Not Have Much Fun Playing Against His Brother Yesterday
Everyone loves football games that come with a built-in subplot, so it's no surprise that yesterday's Bears-Rams game received some extra hype due to the brother-on-brother matchup of defensive end Chris Long and offensive guard Kyle Long. Two brothers enter, but only one can win! It'll be just lik...
Andre Johnson Is Sad
This afternoon, the Texans, who suck, lost to the Jaguars, who suck to some really historic degrees. That has made a lot of people in Houston sad, and apparently introspective. People like Andre Johnson. Here he is talking to a delightfully trolly ESPN reporter: ...
The Giants' Season, In One Vine
Goofy turnover turns into a touchdown; an old man is furious. ...
Philip Rivers Wins The Game And Makes A Bunch Of Crazy Faces
Phil Rivers and the Chargers got the ball back with less than a minute and a half, down four and needing a touchdown to win. They got it, on a 26-yard throw to Seyi Ajirotutu, and then Rivers did what he does best: make a bunch of crazy ass faces and look like an insane person who has recently swall...
We Got A Joseph Fauria Touchdown, So We Get A Joseph Fauria Dance
I might be showing a few too many cards here, but that looks a lot like the dorky disco dance from World of Warcraft to me. The touchdown gives Fauria six on the season....
Tavon Austin Scores Cool Touchdown, Moose Calls Him "Tavon Martin"
Cool pitch and half-reverse play here to spring Tavon Austin for a score. Daryl Johnston got his young black males mixed up, though, and called Austin "Tavon Martin"—because, well, you know—before quickly correcting himself. As unfortunate slips go, this isn't the worst, but I'm sure Moose would ra...

What High School Yearbook Award Would Peyton Manning Get?
Not sure how fair it is to make fun of Peyton's funhouse mirror forehead the week he's playing Brady and his caveman dome, but I think we can all get behind that Logan Mankins picture as Drunkest Guy At The Picnic. Here's Fallon giving the Pats and Broncos high school yearbook awards. ...
Joe Philbin Thinks Google Glass Comes Equipped With Lasers
We learn two things from the video below (autoplay, sorry), neither having anything to do with the Dolphins' lackluster running game. First, Google Glass is still basically Spy Tech for adults but second, and more importantly, these NFL press conferences are actually kind of sad....
Charts: Who Are The Best Deep Passers In The NFL?
Deep passes are the most exciting play in televised football—the viewing audience can't see the situation downfield until the ball (and the camera) make it down there, so the play always feels, in that tiny moment before we catch up, like a sure touchdown or interception. It's well known that not ev...
