Recap
Big CatCam Newton is clearly playing through a severe shoulder injury
If you have two eyes and a brain, Cam Newton is very, very hurt... Different guy since he got hit by T.J. Watt in that Thursday night football game.
PFT CommenterThe Saints are the most complete team in the NFC
The Saints look pretty good. Their defense is awesome, I would say. So, yeah, they are probably the most complete team in the NFC, I would say.
PFT CommenterThe fumble-out-of-the-end-zone touchback rule is actually good because it rewards defense
You're looking at as the punishment doesn't fit the crime... You should look at it as the reward. It fits the feat. It fits the accomplishment. So if you're the defense and you make a guy fumble through the end zone at the one-yard line, that's an awesome play by our defense. You should get a big reward for that.
PFT CommenterLeBron James would be the best netball player in the world right now
How long do you think it would take for LeBron James to be the best netball player in the world? Probably he is right now already.
Hot Seat Cool Throne
Big CatI actually like Carrie Underwood's 'Game On' Sunday Night Football song now
I have maybe been tweeting about that from weeks one through 14, and then week 15... I just started singing it, and I was like, you know what? I give up. I like this song now.
Interview
Rachel NicholsThe Chicago Bulls are viewed as a 'joke' around the NBA
Nick Friedell is our insider today... He said, around the league, when you go around and talk to people, the word they use talking about the Chicago Bulls is a joke.
Rachel NicholsLuke Walton's job is safe for the rest of the season
I don't see Luke Walton on the hot seat because Magic Johnson said he's going to be around for the rest of the season barring something catastrophic. So there you go.
Rachel NicholsThe Lakers have a better shot at trading for Anthony Davis now than in the summer
If you're the LA Lakers and you want a shot at Anthony Davis without Danny Ainge and all his pile of assets competing with you... they have a more clear run at Anthony Davis now than they will in the summer.
Rachel NicholsKawhi Leonard is a robot who does not have emotions
He doesn't have emotions. He's a robot... he doesn't have a heart yet. He laughed, there was some laughing, him and Nick Saban laughed the same way, they both have like a button they're like it is appropriate to laugh now so I will push my tickle button.
