1. Week 13 Reactions
-Biggest Lesson Learned (DKrom: Todd Bowles has to develop an inner Bruce Arians, Hal: The Eagles may not have a glaring weakness)
-GOAT of the Week (DKrom: A.J. Brown/Malik Hooker, Hal: Geno Smith)
-DUNCE of the Week (DKrom: Saints GM Mickey Loomis, Hal: Brian Daboll/Ron Rivera)
2. On Tuesday, there was some rather surprising news out of Tennessee. After more than seven seasons, the Titans fired GM Jon Robinson. Although we don't quite know the full details yet, it was reported further by Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network that head coach Mike Vrabel is expected to have significant power going forward, regardless of who the new full-time GM is. Thus, this was likely due to a power struggle between Vrabel and Robinson, and Vrabel apparently prevailed because he was not on board with trading A.J. Brown. As much benefit of the doubt as Mike Vrabel has earned as a coach, do you think it is a mistake by the Titans to give him more say in roster decisions?
3. Do you think it was a mistake for the 49ers not to submit a claim for Baker Mayfield, even though they would have lost the bid?
4. Do you feel that the Rams know that there is a real possibility Matthew Stafford will retire after this season due to his bruised spinal cord?
5. Truth or Exaggeration
