Bengals QB Joe Burrow has a path to unseat Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes as the top quarterback in the NFL. But it’s complicated.

We all saw the Eagles-Giants game last weekend, so we’re all aware that it was start-to-finish domination on the part of the Birds. It seems, at least one Eagle — defensive lineman Brandon Graham — was pretty confident even before the coin toss.
NFL Films tweeted a video of Graham giving it to the Giants while out at midfield for the coin toss.
The man has a gift when it comes to smack talk.

The Yankees captain’s thorough process appears to annoy at least one person.
Walk-up songs are easily a fan favorite at a baseball game, and while players can choose the tune that’ll be associated with their name, the process is lengthy, at least for Aaron Judge. 
The Yankees outfielder—and now the 16th captain in franchise history—joked with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show about how selecting a walk-up song “is by far the toughest decision any baseball player has to make in the off season.

The Packers quarterback gets asked about trade rumors, calls out woke culture, Big Pharma.
1. Aaron Rodgers, who repeatedly claims he doesn’t play the victim and doesn’t care what people say about him, seemed to accuse Rob Gronkowski of being part of woke culture and blames trade rumors on Big Pharma during his weekly interview with Pat McAfee on Tuesday.
McAfee asked Rodgers about his future and said that despite rumors swirling that Green Bay might trade the quarterback, we still didn’t know if Rodgers would even return in 2023.

Suddenly, one of the most heated rivalries in the NFL is between the Cincinnati Bengals and Buffalo Bills.
The Bengals eliminated the Bills, in Buffalo, in the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs on Sunday. During the game, Bengals cornerback Eli Apple let the Buffalo fans know what his team did to them on that field.
After the game, Apple took to Twitter to continue roasting the team, specifically Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs. Diggs and teammate Shaq Lawson responded to Apple’s Twitter trash talk.
Now, Bills GM Brandon Beane is getting in on the action.

Russell Westbrook had two turnovers during the Lakers’ 18-point loss to the Clippers on Tuesday night. One resulted in him and teammate Dennis Schroeder going back and forth at one another on the bench. When asked after the game about the specific play, Westbrook decided to act offended.
Early in the fourth quarter, Westbrook threw an errant inbound pass to Schroeder and the ball was stolen. The Clippers took advantage with Kawhi Leonard completing a three-point play and any momentum the Lakers were searching for was destroyed.

The Buccaneers fired six coaches after the season ended.
Just three days after the Buccaneers lost to the Cowboys in the wild-card round, the team announced that they had fired six offensive assistant coaches including offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich and three others had retired. Evidently, former coach Bruce Arians was not happy with the move. 
During an appearance on WDAE Radio this week, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reported that Arians was, “Not happy. Very unhappy. Extremely unhappy.”
“Having had some interaction with him about it. . . he’s disappointed.

One assistant coach with no head coaching experience reportedly impressed during his interview.
Three names have reportedly impressed the Panthers as they look to fill their head coaching vacancy with someone who is experienced. 
Interim coach Steve Wilks and former Colts coach Frank Reich meet the team’s criteria, per NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore also impressed during his interview. 
Wilks was named interim coach when Carolina fired Matt Rhule on Oct. 10 after a 1–4 start to the season.
