#Commanders use of Sam Cosmi vs Browns:
1st drive – 0 snaps
2nd drive – 0 snaps
3rd drive – 5 snaps at RT
4th drive – 21 snaps at RG
5th drive – 0 snaps
6th drive – 0 snaps
7th drive – 9 snaps at RT
8th drive – 8 snaps at RT
9th drive – 4 snaps at RT
10th drive – 1 snap at RT— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) January 5, 2023
Rivera has always talked about the benefit of having a settled group with the OL, so rotating a 2nd-round pick between 2 different positions feels very disruptive to both Cosmi’s development and the OL’s production

It is so confusing what they are doing there. What’s the point/end game?

Don’t know, honestly. Feels like a weird situation

Asked Scott Turner if he’s worried about his job security: “That’s just part of this league. It can happen to anybody. … I’m focused on the Cowboys.”

As mentioned earlier on @team980 & @Audacy app – was told that longtime executive Marty Hurney had a instrumental role in helping change Ron Rivera’s mind & flip from Taylor Heinicke to Sam Howell.
Hurney is a road/scouting grinder. His influence is obvious. #Commanders

Assuming they do this Sunday, Howell will be the 10th player McLaurin has caught a pass from in Washington.
Trivia question: Which Washington QB played during that time but is not on the list? https://t.co/a88YjnRSBl
— michael phillips (@michaelpRTD) January 5, 2023
The answer: Ryan Fitzpatrick did not complete a pass to Terry McLaurin. He has caught passes from:
Case Keenum
Colt McCoy
Dwayne Haskins
Kyle Allen
Alex Smith
Logan Thomas
Taylor Heinicke
Garrett Gilbert

Justin Fields, Andrew Walter, David (not Derek) Carr, and Akili Smith are the only QBs since 2000 to have complete less than 3.5 passes for every sack they took. pic.twitter.com/a2tCVa7La0

It’s down to the #Texans and #Bears for the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.
Here are the scenarios via @NFLResearch: pic.twitter.com/lDAYLGZV0S

There’s a chance we have THREE teams with losing records (Jaguars, Titans, Buccaneers) make the playoffs.
Only THREE losing teams in @NFL history have made the playoffs in a non-strike season.

Dr. Pritts says they have explained to Hamlin what happened and “He expressed surprise that he had not been with the world for two days.” Also talked with him about all the support.
“His first note was: ‘Did we win?’ It’s not only that the lights are on. We know that he’s home.”
— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) January 5, 2023
Dr. Pritts clarifies that Hamlin cannot speak and still has a breathing tube in. He has been communicating in writing last night and today.

Dr. William A Knight of University of Cincinnati Medical Center said they haven’t determined a definitive cause of Damar Hamlin’s cardiac arrest.

#Bills QB Josh Allen and Sean McDermott were asked if they’re truly ready to play football.
Allen quickly answers: “I do. … That’s what Damar’s dad wants. We can’t not honor his request. Guys are excited to get out there.”
Sean McDermott: “I do as well.”
— Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) January 5, 2023
Very classy move by Josh Allen, who made sure to say this before his press conference ended today: “People should not be attacking Tee Higgins whatsoever. Hopefully he found some relief today. I hope he doesn’t hold that upon himself.”
Well done. pic.twitter.com/9YoyHnXhzp

The NFL used to determine home field in the playoffs randomly each season. That’s how the 14-0 Dolphins were in Pittsburgh against the 11-3 Steelers in the playoffs. The 1968 Colts went 13-1 and played at the 10-4 Browns. It was OK.

“I hate it had to be this way, but I’m so glad everyone knows the person he is, how caring he is.”@KhalekeHudson shares his personal connection to Damar Hamlin ❤️

Folks,
they’re not adding eighth playoff teams two days before kickoff of Week 18 to accommodate two teams that have already clinched.
— Mike Tanier (@MikeTanier) January 5, 2023
NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith said the league has not proposed an idea of adding an 8th team to both conferences for the postseason.
The NFLPA would have to approve any change like that as it’s subject to collective bargaining.
— Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) January 5, 2023
Adam Schefter believes the NFL will not look to resume the Bengals vs. Bill game and that league is working towards either a potential neutral site AFC Championship game or 1 seed choosing between getting having a bye or home field with 2 seed getting whatever not picked. pic.twitter.com/MKnRLcRGNQ
