NFL Random Thought of the Day

The 49ers also won’t have left tackle Trent Williams or left guard Aaron Banks and left tackle Jaylon Moore the last two games, since they are out of playoff contention. Williams has a low ankle sprain that has not been rehabbing as expected. Banks has a medial collateral ligament injury in his knee and Moore has a quad strain.

Dickerson cheering on Saquon? 'Absolutely not'

One person not pulling for Eagles running back Saquon Barkley to set the single-season rushing mark: current record holder Eric Dickerson.

"I don't think he'll break it. But if he breaks it, he breaks it," Dickerson told the Los Angeles Times this week. "Do I want him to break it? Absolutely not. I don't pull no punches on that.

"But I'm not whining about it. He had 17 games to do it? Hey, football is football. That's the way I look at it. If he's fortunate to get over 2,000 yards and get the record, it's a great record to have."
 
The Cowboys have placed CeeDee Lamb on IR. He has been dealing with and playing through an A-C shoulder separation for over a month with no improvement. He will not require surgery, but needs prolonged rehab in order to heal.

111 NFL players rank the toughest places to play (and leave out one division entirely)

It shouldn't be a surprise which stadium was ranked as the toughest, but the voting did raise some eyebrows.

Tier 4: The friendliest division in football​

There are tough places to play football, and then there is the AFC South. None of the players voted for the stadiums in Tennessee, Jacksonville, Houston or Indianapolis.

Since 2021, visiting teams have a .563 winning percentage against AFC South teams, the highest for any division, according to ESPN Research. In contrast, the AFC North has been the hardest division to play at with a .387 winning percentage for visiting opponents.

For Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr., the reason is simple: Loud fans come to watch good football teams. Over the past four seasons, the AFC South has a combined record of 108-158-2 (.407).

"I feel like the fans in the NFL, they support winners," Etienne said. "You know, you've got to win for your fans to come out, and we've got to do a much better job at home."

If he didn't break the record in 16 games, I hope he doesn't break it in 17.

Disclaimer: Dickerson is one of my top three favorite RBs and I'll admit I'm a little bias. Earl is #1 (of course) and Barry Sanders #2.

Eh, I don't think it really matters much anymore, especially when they go to an 18 game schedule. Records are gonna fall. And if we're going to play that game, they all have asterisks except for O.J. who did it in 14 games.

FYI, for anyone reacting to this with anything other than side-eye, this 'projection' is literally nothing more than this actual real guy..
