Briefly. (Ed’s head… large, this morning)

If I got five dollars for every math test I passed, I’d have $37.

Go away: Roger Godell.) Not his first time mentioned here) For the first time in league history, the NFL is flexing a “Thursday Night Football” game. The Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals were scheduled to play the Thursday night game during Week 16, but the NFL is replacing that matchup with the Denver Broncos and the Los Angeles Chargers. The change is unprecedented because of how drastically different team preparation is between a Thursday and Sunday game. (My opinion: Not to mention the fans and travel arrangements.

Don’t look now but the Patriots’ Drake Maye has five interceptions, four fumbles and has been sacked 12 times over the last four games.

“So let’s get to the point
Let’s roll another joint
And let’s head on down the road
There’s somewhere I got to go
And you don’t know how it feels
You don’t know how it feels
No, you don’t know how it feels
To be me”

Tom Petty (You Don’t Know How It Feels)
