Sure. They were just saying snow squalls.

In other news CJ Mosley got sent home from London for disconnecting a fire alarm and smoking weed in his hotel room? What a dumbass. Probably partying with Kas.

Falcons owner Arthur Blank has become increasingly frustrated with his team's descent into the bottom rung of the NFL and is irate about his 2014 product, according to a source close to him.

Coach Mike Smith is not expected to be back next season, according to the source, with his job security now become a regular topic of conversation in Atlanta. Blank is mulling a move for a big-name head coach to help usher his team into the new stadium he is constructing.

Should he land an A-list head coach, the immediate question becomes would that coach be comfortable with the front office as presently constructed, or would he want to hire his own general manager instead. Blank has tried to land proven winners in the past, spurned by Bill Parcells for one, and his level of dissatisfaction with his club's 6-18 performance since reaching the NFC Championship Game cannot be overstated, the source said, which has many expecting Blank will go big with his next hire and be willing to do whatever is necessary to get his guy.

“Arthur has an angry side to him,” the source said. “He can turn on someone and he can turn quickly. He's not nearly as mellow as his public perception would make you think.”

The Falcons offensive line, decimated by injuries, has remained a major concern, leading to quarterback Matt Ryan, a $20M-a-year investment, getting hit far too often amid what is becoming a lost season for him. The team has been unable to find pass rushers for years and in a fickle pro sports market, at a time when Blank will be trying to convince fans to purchase expensive personal seat licenses with the team falling well short of expectations, there is a growing expectation that he will be willing to make drastic changes to his organization in hopes to making the Falcons contenders again in 2015.

Every year there is speculation about Jon Gruden leaving the broadcast booth to return as an NFL head coach, and this offseason the 49ers are expected to consider trade offers for their coach, Jim Harbaugh, with those sides unable to get anywhere on contract talks in the past. There could be several options for him to pursue, and any hotly coveted coach generally comes with his own thoughts about how the organization and front office should be structured.

Not as bad as I thought. There were rumors that he had gotten into a fight with a teammate. The fight rumor had me a bit worried because it would disrupt locker room harmony and we need him after Fairley went down.

He's filing a grievance buts that par for the course. The NFLPA probably insisted on it.

Guy would have to be partying it up big time to be worried about a fire alarm in a big hotel room.

Skol Vikings!

I'm ready to watch Anthony "raise the" Barr continue his path to DROY.

I'm still shocked that nobody is really talking about him and leaning toward Mosley and Mack.

Bucs RB Charles Sims won't play today.

Good, was worried he'd run all over us. Now we have to worry about Bobby Rainey the former Brown. :(

NFL on ESPN @ESPNNFL · 39m 39 minutes ago

RG3 has "alienated himself." Teammates shouting forced him to leave locker room for interview http://es.pn/1wUx65h


Decision to start RG3 came from above Jay Gruden. Redskins say it was coach's choice but Redskins exec told @AdamSchefter that's "laughable"

"At least we aren't Washington" shall be the battlecry for all crappy teams.

Multiple members of the Washington Redskins organization told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter this week that they believe the decision to go back to quarterback Robert Griffin III and away from Colt McCoy, who had led the team to two straight wins, is an owner- and general manager-driven decision.

Redskins executive Tony Wyllie strongly denied that, telling ESPN it was the "coach [Jay Gruden's] decision, and the owner has nothing to do with it -- scratch that."

Owner Dan Snyder and GM Bruce Allen are strong Griffin supporters and sources tell ESPN they believe the time is right for him to return to the starting lineup.

Griffin's support with players, however, is not as strong as it is with the highest levels of the organization, according to sources.

When Griffin began addressing the media in the locker room on Friday for the first time since dislocating his left ankle in Week 2, about 15 teammates began shouting. It was so loud and distracting, the franchise quarterback -- and reporters -- had to leave the locker room so Griffin could speak someplace where he could be heard. That's when the cheering got even more boisterous.

A source familiar with the incident told ESPN's Britt McHenry that Griffin has "alienated himself" from the locker room.
