Summary

Matthew Coller talks about the Ravens firing John Harbaugh and how they could consider hiring Brian Flores. Tweets from Skip Bayless, Mina Kimes, Aaron Schatz and others are endorsing the idea. Mike Florio was on Pittsburgh radio and said that Lamar Jackson could still go. Really? Plus, Kirk Cousins talks with Kay Adams and insinuates that he wants to be a starter. "I want to play." And Ryan Fitzpatrick continues to talk about how Flores was a "dictator" in Miami. Plus starting a new offseason series spotlighting one position group each show.
