Arrowhead Anxiety
Believe it or not, NFL front office executives may be paranoid, like to hire their own people, and can be overly detail-intensive even over ancillary things. When you're winning, this is called "commitment to excellent in all phases" and "perfectionist." When you're not, you're a "petty tyrant" and get compared to Captain Queeg (though not in this article).

Bears Fire GM Jerry Angelo, Martz Resigns
The Chicago Bears have fired Jerry Angelo, ending his tenure as general manager after eleven seasons.
Lovie Smith will return, but is evaluating his coaching staff. Special teams coach Dave Toub is apparently on the interview list for the Dolphins head coaching job, and of course nobody expects Mike Martz to return as offensive coordinator.

One Team, 25 Years On
As plugged in MMQB, here's the story from this week's Sports Illustrated on the health of the 1986 Cincinnati Bengals. Most players aren't like this, but safety David Fulcher says, "It was worth it while I was playing, but now I feel like, no, it wasn't worth it whatsoever."

MMQB: Quarterbacks and Health
In this week's Monday Morning Quarterback, Peter King touches on the comebacks of some AFC West quarterback, Ray Rice, and Peyton Manning's status. He also writes about SI's forthcoming special report on the current health of the 1986 Cincinnati Bengals 25 years later, which is something I'm very interested in reading. Bill Belichick's adherence to Jimmy Johnson's draft pick strategy is also mentioned.

NFL Touchdown Streaks by College
The University of Miami's record streak of 149 consecutive weeks with a former player scoring a touchdown ended recently. FO commenter and researcher extraordinaire Travis put together this list of the longest touchdown streaks by college, including which players scored during the streak. Second longest streak? Ohio State, at 82 weeks in a row. Fun fact: Michigan had a 73 week streak contained entirely within Ohio State's streak.

MMQB: A Familiar Giants-Patriots Game
In this week's Monday Morning Quarterback, Peter King draws some parallels between yesterday's Giants-Patriots game and some other Giants-Patriots game. He also writes about last week's podcast guest Ryan Leaf (really good interview, I thought), and mentions an AFC North quarterback could be on the hot seat going forward.

MMQB: The Surprising San Francisco 49ers
In this week's MMQB, Peter King writes about things that happened in Detroit other than the post-game handshake and the 49ers' good record in 1 PM Eastern games. He also joins the F-word bandwagon. That's F****, as in B****, as Aaron Rodgers could tell you. Panthers owner Jerry Richardson's new job is also mentioned.
