Two things I didn't expect from the Saints today..
I wouldn't say that.


Ingram is a pretty decent ball carrier and really good blocker.

Yeah maybe not. But at $3.5M a year for Murray and precious cap space, I get it. It's become Kamara's backfield anyway, and Ingram is going to get more $$$ than that.

Sad news though, Ingram is a HUGE part of that locker room, I bet Kamara is upset. Barring a late career re-signing, Ingram finishes his Saints career 89 yards behind Deuce McAllister as the team's all-time leading rusher. That four game suspension to start the year basically torpedoed that.

Engage full tank mode for NYG.

That division is so bad that the Browns are smart to take advantage

The Browns have Beckham's best friend, Jarvis Landry, and his college position coach, Adam Henry, on staff.

Moves the needle measurably.

News of the Beckham deal, which was first reported by NFL Network, had an immediate impact in Las Vegas. The Browns' odds to win the Super Bowl went from 25-1 to 14-1 at Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook. Their odds to win the AFC went from 12-1 to 7-1, behind only Chiefs and New England Patriots (3-1).

Cleveland went 7-8-1 last season after not winning a game in 2017.

Meanwhile, the Giants' Super Bowl odds went from 40-1 to 80-1 and their NFC title odds from 20-1 to 40-1, per Westgate.

It is all looking so very, very good for the Browns, so you know what that means: Baker torn ACL within the first three games.

Well, the NYG got more for their selfish asshat than the Steelers did. Good job.

Even without Hunt - who likely will be suspended 6-8 games - the Browns offense looks formidable.

Also, I thought I saw something about the Giants being on the hook for $21 million of OBJ's contract, so I could see the Browns paying him more. They have the cap room.

I guess no one was willing to part with a second round pick this year for Dee Ford. Don't know how well he'll do one he's paid. But it looks like the Chiefs are borrowing from Grudens book of how not to rush the Passer. Have to think they'll spend their top 3 picks on pass rushers or d line.

Really this is what they need to do after wasting last season thinking that they could still contend with an aging Manning. Now it appears they have the draft ammunition to trade up for Haskins. I think he's the safest bet in this draft and paired with Barkley could be a good core. Tough to lose a talent like OBJ but it's clear the team had grown tired of his immaturity.

The Browns will be on prime time TV a lot this year. More than any time since the ‘80s.
