For the Patriots to get to where they need to be, linebacker Brandon Spikes is going to have to make more plays than he has lately.

It’s a good thing RB DuJuan Harris is able to help the Packers, because he was really bad at selling cars.

Vikings QB Christian Ponder is fine, but they’re worried about LB Tyrone McKenzie.

As you might imagine, Falcons coach Mike Smith is glad he’s able to hang onto offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter.

Bernie Miklasz of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch says to give credit to Rams owner Stan Kroenke for being aggressive in his pursuit of coach Jeff Fisher last year.

CB Brandon Browner is just one of the players coming back for the Seahawks defense.
