If there was any confusion about my item about Jeff Bezos's interest in purchasing an NFL team, at the same time he is moving to DC, this has nothing to do with the Skins. Unrelated. Article did not imply it was related but just want to be totally clear. Skins not for sale

For those wondering/hoping for more Kelvin Harmon with Haskins now the starter, it’s entirely possible. His highest snap count of the season came vs Giants when Haskins played the 2nd half. His next most came on Haskins 1st start vs the Bills https://t.co/frwiabJDer

Am I the only one who thinks Steven Sims Jr. can be a star in the NFL? #Redskins are a team in need of speed and big play capability. So far, Sims & Terry McLaurin are the only 2 weapons who showcased they can score from anywhere on the field. Both are rookies! Feed them! #HTTR pic.twitter.com/OhXXW4nT6h

Translation: I’ve been told Dwayne is going to start, and to back off KOC.
Never too early to do a mock simulation. So here's one I just did on Fanspeak (they have the 'Skins with #3 pick). Traded with Oakland for their #10, #16 and their 3rd. pic.twitter.com/wOSqGSZZ1S

In the past 2 days, we’ve seen impact players (M.Fitzpatrick/J.Clowney) acquired for 1st-Rd picks make pivotal plays in big games. I know decision makers love collecting picks but there something to taking proven commodities over “possibles”.. It’s like Spades.. Take the book

As of this Sunday, Deshaun Watson will have played against every one of the other young starting QBs in the AFC from the last three classes: Mahomes, Jackson, Darnold, Allen, Mayfield, and Minshew.
— Brett Kollmann (@BrettKollmann) November 12, 2019
He’s 6-0 so far. Jackson’s all that stands in his way of a clean sweep.
The camera's love of Robert Saleh could help propel him to a head-coaching job, even with the trend pointing to offensive coaches https://t.co/UZn7lUKxrH

Several clubs inquired as to Kaepernick’s football readiness and both him and his reps have frequently expressed his desire for him to return to the league. The NFL has arranged this opportunity for him to work out, and for all clubs to have the opportunity to evaluate him https://t.co/iihhbbxIAO

My main takeaway from this game is that I have no takeaways. It’s a primetime divisional game. Wacky shit always happens in those, and most of the time it’s tough to really glean anything significant from them.

Both teams are good. Russ is MVP. That’s about all I got.
Seahawks’ WR Tyler Lockett spent the night in a Bay Area Hosptial with a lower leg injury that Seattle HC Pete Carroll said Is “a pretty severe situation right now.” Asked what made him term Lockett’s injury “bad,” Carroll said: “Well, I think there was a lot of swelling.”

Craziest parts of that game:

5. Shanahan’s OT clock management
4. Clowney making $1 billion in free agency
3. Ansah benched for Shaquem Griffin
2. Russ having more turnovers in 4th qtr/OT than his previous 39 quarters combined but helping his MVP case anyway.

I don't want to dunk on the Northwestern J-students, in part because I think we need journalists now more than ever and punching down in his profession is extremely shitty, but I do want to tell a story about why we call people who might not want to be contacted for stories.
