This feels like the money game in a college schedule where the No. 1 team in the nation schedules pays some FCS scrub team enough to run theier athletic department for three months in exchange for taking a 72-0 beating.
Fields is probably due to break some runs or something and have a half-decent game.
But I seriously think Mahomes could put up 700 yards against this defense if he felt like it.
Johnny Depp notwithstanding, it's usually not worth it to sue for this kind of thing. Williams would have to prove that McAfee intentionally lied or that he intentionally didn't check if it was true. Those are hard to prove.
Eventually Fields is going to have what passes for a good game for him. Eventually the losing streak will end. Probably not this week but you never know
It's kind of a touchy subject in the industry (or at least it was, I've been out for 10+ years and I was barely even in before da bum took my job) but there's also the element that sports journalists just aren't the right fit for this kind of story. The guys who make a career out of buddying up to coaches and players aren't going to be the ones with sources in law enforcement. Could be heavily contributing to the cloudiness around what's happening.
I really wanna know more about Peterman. Is he actually out or are they just promoting Bagent and want to move him to the PS? Was it always the plan to promote Bagent or did something happen to make them want to do it? Is he moving to Burma?
So to catch up:
DC out under mysterious circumstances, internet going crazy
QB calls out coaching staff, calls reporters back to his locker to walk it back
QB2 released after two weeks
This is gonna be one hell of a 30 for 30 someday
Afaik, FBI involvement has not been confirmed.
All we know is:
He resigned
The league was not involved
FBI did not raid halas hall today
Beat reporters have hinted at things like "shocking"
Everything else could easily be true or it could easily be a very successful troll job reaching the types of people who pretend to have sources for clout

This guy is legit enough that I'll at least say it. That's the rumor I keep seeing independently: that Williams is under FBI investigation for child porn.
If true, I have no interesting in lumping it in with my "lol bears suck" takes. That's outside of football and he can rot.
I've seen multiple, independent reddit/Twitter reports of something that I don't wanna say until someone legit confirms it, but it would be weird for the same thing to get said in different places if it's not true
