Looks like the Black helmets this week… pic.twitter.com/ZmdrssygLK

Here’s a look at the black helmets up close. Is it just me or does the W seem smaller than what the team unveiled back in February? pic.twitter.com/D8EI0KWrwT

I don’t dislike our black helmet like a lot of people do, but I do think it could be better. This option from @GonzoDidThis would’ve been the best IMO. pic.twitter.com/iDc4J0WjMi

Problem is I used gold gold for this. This was my gold or die phase

If Wes Schweitzer is still in the concussion protocol later this week, Nick Martin, the brother of Cowboys G Zack Martin, is the next man up.
Nick Martin signed with the Commanders all of two weeks ago.

Nick Martin said he talks to his brother Zack fairly regularly. When they talked this week, Nick reminded Zack that he’s 2-0 against him.

Nick Martin was Carson Wentz’s center at the Senior Bowl.
That’s notable since Martin might have that tole Sunday if Wes Schweitzer (concussion) cannot go.

Montez Sweat on if he’s getting doubled/chipped more: “Excuses is like assholes. Everybody’s got them. You’ve just got to keep going regardless of the attention. I’m sure it’s not going to stop.”

Ron Rivera has noticed a “concerted effort” from opposing offenses to limit Montez Sweat. Rivera believes all of the attention paid to Montez is helping the interior guys, Jon Allen and Daron Payne, to play well

Jamin Davis is “soaking up the gravy,” Ron Rivera says. That excellent phrase means Davis is learning and developing in recent weeks

NFL games are averaging 17.2 million viewers per game through three weeks, the best start to a season since 2016.
The 19 most-viewed shows on TV since the start of the NFL season are all NFL games. Nothing else.

The moment in LIVE AND LET DIE (1973) where Bond steps across a row of Crocodiles was real.
Croc farm owner Ross Kananga (whose Father had been eaten by a crocodile) did the stunt, succeeded on the 5th attempt and suffered injuries requiring 193 stitches.pic.twitter.com/lemz49IAl1
