SCOOP: Amazon founder Jeff Bezos hasn’t submitted a formal bid for the Washington Commanders, sources tell @FOS. Minus Bezos, none of the half-dozen bids ahead of last month’s first-round deadline exceeded $6.3 billion. https://t.co/5ZSu6XesMb

No Bezos doesn’t mean no sale. In fact I heard today from a source close to the situation that “it will be over soon”
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) January 15, 2023
Not only was I told Bezos didn’t submit a bid, I’ve had people tell me the Snyder family has absolutely no interest in selling to Bezos.

This man didn’t make the initial 53 man roster, spent the ENTIRE season grinding on the practice squad & then in that final game vs Dallas proudfully rushed for 78 yds on 17 carries. @JaretPatterson IS WHAT’S GOOD ABOUT SPORTS! For more with JP check out

The Vikings go from 13-4 to losing a first round playoff game to a team they beat three weeks ago.
Kevin O’Connell’s first season ends in excruciating fashion for Minnesota.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) January 16, 2023
#Vikings HC Kevin O’Connell talking about the scene in the locker room: “That’s one of the closest and most connected groups in the NFL. There’s some real tears in there. The guys expected to have a chance at winning a World Championship. Have to give the Giants credit.”

First-time head coach and rookie QB who is making his third NFL start had some trouble today. That’s hardly surprising, but I think there was a lot more good than bad to takeaway today if you’re a Miami fan.
But in general, these 7 seeds are no match for 2 seeds: 0-6 now.

I’m not sure I have ever been more impressed by a team that is losing than I am with the Dolphins today.
From the coaching staff to the players, awesome effort against a juggernaut in one of the hardest environments to visit in the NFL.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) January 15, 2023
Before the plane door closes, I’m still trying to recall if, in my 30-plus years of covering the league, I’ve ever seen a player slam his helmet, have the head coach awkwardly retrieve it as if it were a baby’s bottle, then have the player slam it again with the coach watching.

Name a bigger crybaby than Joey Bosa, I will wait.
— CJ Errickson (@CJE_NFL) January 15, 2023
Joey Bosa says he doesn’t want to comment on the helmet throw because he thinks he has some fines coming his way “I really,really do want to say some things. I need to be more accountable for my actions…it’s a heated game I’m hurting out there I’m playing on half a leg.”

Mike Vick, who says he played a full season with a torn MCL, has a message for Lamar Jackson and his PCL injury as the playoffs begin: “Put a brace on it. Let’s go.” https://t.co/2qad6jKUBc
— ProFootballTalk (@ProFootballTalk) January 15, 2023
This is why you don’t just put a brace on it and play. Played with no ACL and LCL for my brothers/team. Changed the trajectory of my career. Hindsight is 20/20. I didn’t have the luxury of that. Lamar does. He is DOING THE RIGHT THING. pic.twitter.com/UPY5pKNOcH
— Robert Griffin III (@RGIII) January 16, 2023
Anyone saying Lamar Jackson should just “brace it up and go play” REGARDLESS of the extent of his knee injury needs to get their head out of their ass.

Its so annoying when these dudes act so aggrieved answering questions as if it’s not pre-determined and agreed upon ahead of time. It takes just as much time to answer graciously as it does to be condescending and flippant.

Oh. My. God. Tyler Huntley fumbles trying to go over the goal-line and Sam Hubbard takes it back the other way 98 yards for a Bengals TD.

It is preeeeeeetty funny watching Jason Garrett on TV talking about how happy he is for the Giants and their dynamic offense considering the offensive coordinator when many of the same players looked completely inept the last two years was…him.
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) January 16, 2023
What makes Mike Tirico elite? Graphic shows Justin Tucker has missed 6 FG’s this year. Me: “Wow. Six?”
He then adds context: “3 of them were 50+ and 3 were blocked.” Effortless. Took 8 seconds. Perfect. Value added. Did his homework.
— Steve Czaban (@czabe) January 16, 2023
I’m putting full focus on getting back in the game. Giving myself a legitimate chance to succeed. Sitting back watching this year go by, showed me that they not better than me they just act better. Which is why they get choose everytime…

College football is in a fascinating place right now where several QBs make more money than NFL playoff QBs & some are older than NFL QBs.
Brock Purdy, Skylar Thompson and Tyler Huntley all make less than $1 million annually, which is less than several college QBs through NIL.
