They have gotten very enamored with the pass. Remember last year in Chicago after the 4-3 bye week. Lovie Smith demanded, run the ball more…they finished up 72. Last year the Atlanta Falcons, with the fifth-most rushing attempts in the league, they have now, Matt Ryan with 13 sacks. Look for both those teams to run the ball more today to get back into what they do best – having bala...

Rodriguez shared his opinion and explained Michigan’s violation in 2009 when he was head coach: “You can’t limit them to 20 hours. I know quite a bit about this subject. We got in trouble. It wasn’t for practice mind you, but stretch and warm up in the offseason, because it was 20 minutes over the hour limit. The NCAA says because the strength coaches were in the same room w...

NEWS, NOTES & QUOTES FROM CBS SPORTS’ “THE NFL TODAY” WITH JAMES BROWN, DAN MARINO, SHANNON SHARPE, BILL COWHER AND BOOMER ESIASON FOR WEEK 3 ON SEPTEMBER 25
Boomer Still Outspoken on Tony Romo’s Injury ►CHALK TALK (On Tony Romo’s injury in Week 2) BOOMER ESIASON: I think he's one heck of a quarterback, and I want to see him play for the next 10 years. That's why there has to be somebody on their sideline protecting him from himself. It was a pressurized situation.
