Carolina signed rookie kicker Adi Kunalic, keeps Olindo Mare on the roster, though.

"A person with knowledge of the situation" has told the St. Paul Pioneer Press Vikings coach Leslie Frazier has been "assured he will return next season."

For those tiring of Tebowmania, don't blame Tebow, Elway, John Fox, the media, or Kyle Orton's struggles. This is who you should be placing blame at: 7-1 since her Denver photoshoot came out.

Jaguars play Falcons.
Jags scored 41 against Tampa: I have a better chance of scoring with Karen Jarrett than lightning striking twice for the Fighting Gabberts.

I know people don't like most ESPN columnists, however Gregg Easterbrook had an interesting analysis of the Denver comebacks in his this week.
Basically, there is a method to being such a run heavy team early on. It tires out the defenses, and opposing coaches haven't picked it up yet to switch out teams. By late game, Denver can switch to an aggressive defense and pick apart a tired defense. Tired defenses make more mistakes, and a player with a football IQ as high as Tebow can take advantage of that, not to mention the rest of the team being able to capitalize.
I know such a theory would have to give credit to the coaching staff, which isn't popular around these parts, but it does help explain why this team is so good at late comebacks.

Hmm, that's an interesting view point for sure. I once heard a fan compare this team to a boxer, one that doesn't necessarily want to knock you out in the first round - but one that is content on wearing you down and then delivering the knockout blow. My personal opinion is that, being down (or tied) late in the game forces Fox/McCoy to open up the playbook a little more, which allows this young offense to really explode - I think if they'd do that earlier (which they have been recently, to their credit) we maybe wouldn't have to fight back every game.
