Welcome to the big 100 for the Five Minute Football Fix Series! The guys quickly recap teams standings, the Chiefs sudden staff changes, an NFL investigation against the Browns, an finally, as you may have guessed, a Tim Tebow update!
Wrapping up an exciting week in the NFL division race are the Rams at the Seahawks. While hogging the Monday Night Football spot, the guys are much more enthused by the Texans becoming the AFC South champs for the first time in franchise history. On the other side, the Giants squeeze out a victory over the Dallas Cowboys, tying up the NFL East champ spot. They’re determined not to fall to America’s Team quite yet.
The Chiefs make a quick decision and cut head coach, Todd Haley with a record of 19-27. While not the best record, it’s far from the worst and despite leading the chiefs to be the AFC West Champions last year, the CEO Clark Hunt felt it better to not waste any time, “although this was a difficult decision.” Romeo Crennel will be the Interim Head Coach (iCEO Steve Jobs ring a bell?) for the remaining three games for Kansas City.
The NFL (and Mr. McCoy) raise a few flags regarding the situation where QB Colt McCoy was hit in such a manner that led him to forget, yes forget, the ending of the game. Here’s the crazy part– Head coach Pat Shurmur put Colt back into play claiming that Colt did not even begin showing symptoms until after the game. The NFL plans to investigate the Browns and gather information to see if they played McCoy even with a concussion. Some call it a “blatant system failure” by the Browns and Colt’s dad doesn’t seemed too pleased with it.
TEBOW STRIKES AGAIN! Pulling a 13-10 win over the Chicago Bears. The guys give “Tebow Time” a new definition, stating the last five minutes of any NFL game played by the Denver Broncos. His string of clutch performances have ignited the nations sudden support for him and the Broncos and is tied for the second best QB win record over the past 8 games, tied with Ben Roethlisberger and only trailing Packer’s Aaron Rogers.
In celebration of Five Minute Football Fix Episode 100, they say “thank you” to Mr. 2,000 on Facebook. Mr. Lee Gardiner was the 2,000th like on facebook. Think a shoutout is pretty awesome? Imagine what the guys will do with Mr. 3000?
