Texans corner. That's not a good loss for them. He was quite good last year in limited snaps for them. He didn't give up a touchdown in his coverage area and didn't give up a single reception over 31 yards over the first 6 weeks last year before getting hurt.

My boy Higgins doing some things for the Browns today. Nice.

I think I said this last week as well but it's just such a good example. Dennis Allen is one of the best examples of sometimes it's more about who you know in the game of football at all levels than what you know.

Another week. Another (stupid) Travis Kelce penalty. Taunting on the Kareem Hunt TD. Thankfully for them it didn't wipe out the TD. Guy just can't help himself.

Greg Olsen told reporters after the game today that he broke his foot and will miss "a lot of games." That's a tremendous loss IMO.

Goff just went Goff. Decided he was going to Kupp no matter what on that play. Picked. Maybe the game.

1.) Yes, yes, and yes.

2.) Not that I can touch Belichick on any topic in football but in my opinion I don't love how a lot of kids are taught these days from system to system in terms of how little it prepares them for the pro game. Obviously that ties into who is teaching them those things and how there isn't enough quality coaches who have enough of an idea of the pro game to incorporate that into their development. And frankly, there probably isn't the time for most kids these days to take that on with everything else surrounding them either.

Offensive pass interference may be a sudden point of emphasis

Ravens vs Jags in London right now. 23-0 Jags.

12 minutes left in the 3rd quarter.

Flacco - 4/12 for 8 yards, 0 TDs, 1 INT, sacked twice

Ravens team rushing - 7 carries for 19 yards, 0 TDs, long of 5.

Two players have receptions for the Ravens - Buck Allen with 3, Benjamin Watson with 1.

Total yards - 26 yards

I'd love to blame it on London as I can't stand London games but that's really, really bad football.

And just as I say that, Flacco intercepted by Ramsey. Make that 4/13 for 8 yards, 0 TDs, 2 INTs.

Following the interception, Bortles to Lewis for another TD.

Next Ravens drive. 5 plays and they enter Jaguars territory...but West fumbles.

Another Marcedes Lewis TD follows that.

37-0. This should undoubtedly be the ugliest brand of football today.
