Jets missing RB-RS Washington’s spark
Jets RB-RS Leon Washington will need 12 weeks to recover from the fractured fibula he sustained in Week Seven, which is a much better prognosis than many expected for such a serious injury.
Spitz could be out awhile for Packers
Just when it looks as if veteran Packers OTs Chad Clifton and Mark Tauscher are ready to settle into starting roles again, the versatile Jason Spitz appears to be saddled by a lower-back injury that team insiders are starting to ...
Broncos, Marshall: Good vibes may not last
While Brandon Marshall and the Broncos have put the contract dispute in the background, it will reemerge sooner or later and nothing appears to have significantly changed between either party when it comes to that matter.
Bulger's future with Rams not looking bright
While every Rams player must be held accountable for the team's poor performance the first half the season, we hear the consensus among among team insiders is that the beleaguered Marc Bulger appears to be on his last legs ...
Ravens' Johnson in midst of strong season
Ravens SLB Jarret Johnson has taken his game to a new level this season, already equaling his career high for sacks (five).
Protection breakdowns plague Falcons’ O-line
While pass protection for Matt Ryan has become a serious problem over the last few weeks, there is no talk of a personnel shake-up on the offensive line, we hear.
Which Patriots offense can we expect?
After the loss to the Broncos, the Patriots were ranked an uncharacteristic ninth in yards and 17th in points per game, but a recent outburst suggest the offense is on track again.
Eagles open up free safety position
For 13 years, one man locked down the Eagles' FS job. Suddenly, three players are contributing to the hole left by Brian Dawkins' absence.
Morris, Dominik not expected to be one and done
A 0-16 season is a real possibility for the Buccaneers, but we hear the Glazer family will be patient and would most likely hold off on scrapping the Raheem Morris-Mark Dominik plan one year into its existence.
Bears say Forté just fine but …
Although Bears players and coaches insist there is nothing wrong with second-year RB Matt Forté, daily team observers say he just hasn't looked as quick as he was last year as a rookie.
Del Rio wants Garrard to give ball to Jones-Drew
It has been an odd year for Maurice Jones-Drew and the Jaguars' offense. Struggling to find an identity after spending the offseason in rebuilding mode, Jones-Drew is not getting the ball consistently, and head coach Jack Del Rio recently limited ...
Steelers CB Gay fitting right in as starter
Steelers CB William Gay is having a solid first season as a full-time starter, racking up lots of tackles but no interceptions.
Despite Haley's comments, Derrick Johnson not about to crack K.C. lineup
Although Chiefs head coach Todd Haley came out this week and said that he doesn't have any issues with LB Derrick Johnson, who has played sparingly behind Demorrio Williams all season, we hear that's not exactly the case.
Vikings making all the right personnel calls
There were plenty of people who questioned the additions of Brett Favre and Percy Harvin as well as the departure of Matt Birk. The Vikings are three-for-three, so far, on those calls.
Giants not doing what they do best
The Giants are entering a critical stretch of their season with a need to regain their identity on offense, defense and special teams.

Insider: McDaniels 'knows what he is doing'
After being the target of widespread criticism for several offseason developments with the Broncos, new head coach Josh McDaniels has his players well-prepared, says one NFL insider in this week's "Audibles."

Lions RB Smith not long-term solution?
Although Lions RB Kevin Smith has been an effective goal-line runner, his shortcomings in other areas make some wonder if he'll stay long in Detroit, according to NFC Whispers.
