Always much appreciated when you tune in.

Don't forget, you can read my work on ESPN.com. I have a story up now on how Ron Rivera, Eric Biennamy, and Sam Hall all kind of tethered together.

Howell does well, Rivera looks like a genius.

If Hal does well, Biennini does well.

And vice versa.

And if that happens, what happens for Biennami's future?

And if it doesn't go right, then you're looking at something that isn't so good for

these guys. But in talking to Rivera, one of the things that he pointed out was that he can't

control what this ownership group would do at the end of the year. But he said, like, hey, if they go 8,

8 and 1 again, but that, you know, then he gets fired and someone comes in next year, wins the

division. They have 40 other guys or draft picks from their tenure.

And Sam Howe's a quarterback, he's going to feel pretty good because he would have gotten

this franchise going in the right direction.

It just so happens that it's in his fourth year.

So anyways, give that a read.

And another note, I'm going to be doing a live stream at 7.30 p.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday with Nikki Javala from the Washington Post.

She joined me a couple weeks ago after the Ravens practices. Love having Nikki on. You guys seem to like when I have Nikki on.
