Thanks Browns!
It's like the Jamie Collins trade in reverse.

McDermott stripped Defensive Coordinator Leslie Frazier of play calling duties at half time on Sunday. That is what a mess this team is.

I'm leaning Vikings.

Russel Wilson is going to get killed.

Every time Gruden laments the raiders’ lack of a pass rush, I giggle.

...then I remember the Raiders are paying him $90 million and I laugh.

He's literally trying to gaslight everyone. In real time.

Must say, I'm not really loving Tessitore and Whitten in the booth on Mondays.

I mean, they're okay, but when I remember who used to call the games, I really, really enjoy their work. Mark Davis did the world a favour.

Tessitore is the best of the three primary people, but his rah-rah excitability gets grating at times and plays better for college than NFL for me. Witten is pretty much a zero, even though he was better last night than in his first game. McFarland does make some good points, but it feels like the insistence on including him at all times leads to him talking for talking's sake. It's TV, you can tell a story with pictures alone.

Gruden was terrible but in an entertaining way. Witten just sounds like a generic announcer from a video game.

It feels like a Mountain West game of the week broadcast.
