Today, the weather report for the neighborhood of Cleveland Browns Stadium said, "Rain is only occurring in a few spots." One was, for most the game, the stadium itself, and another might as well have been the press box. If you checked in on Browns and Bills beat writers, you found a lot of deadpan...
The Bears Were less Offensively Inept Than The Rams, In One GIF
Chicago 23, St. Louis 6: If I knew how to make a GIF of myself falling asleep, I would have. The Rams managed to scoring zero touchdowns and the Chicago offense could only muster one.

Rob Gronkowski Now Has A Cereal With An Imaginative Name
Our favorite human beer keg now has his own cereal, and look at what it's called. Grönk Flakes might seem like ordinary frosted corn flakes, but they come in a box with Gronk's likeness on it, so ... there. Sales pitch, you ask? (I know you didn't, but play along.) Don't worry, Gronk's got you cover...
Giants 36, Panthers 7: The Game In Three GIFs
This was a slow and deceptive win for the Giants, who run their record to 2-1.

The NFL Had A Record Arrest-Free Streak Going Until Michael Turner's DUI
In Week 1 of the preseason, Chad Johnson was arrested on domestic violence charges. After Monday night's win, Michael Turner was collared for DUI. That's two in a little over a month, and a reasonable person could look at that and say, "boy, NFL players get arrested a lot." Except: the span between ...
