MILLER’S HAT SWAG

Denver’s Von Miller is a colourful character. Often he’ll rock a cowboy hat, just ‘cause. But after the Broncos defeated Buffalo, Miller treated the media to a new addition to his wardrobe. A fox hat.

The bizarre look was ridiculed online, but you get the feeling Miller thrives under the scrutiny of his outfit choices.

Miller has form when it comes to outrageous and flamboyant fashion. Earlier this year he was rocking baby pink pants with sequins shoes. So really, this isn’t too surprising.

AUSSIES IN ACTION

Pittsburgh punter and Melbourne boy, Brad Wing, had a strong day out against Cincinnati. Thumping six punts in the game, Wing’s longest effort was an incredible 74 yards, his best distance of the season. It was also the second longest punt made in the NFL so far this season. His average didn’t reflect that positive stat however, only managing 36.7 yard average for the game and just two punts inside 20.

PEYTON DOESN’T WATCH HIS TV ADS

Last week Patriots hero Tom Brady was in a goofy commercial, and Peyton Manning is no stranger to TV ads either. But this week the Denver quarterback admitted he doesn’t watch them himself.

“If other teammates are in the room, I run out of the room. I don’t want to hear the abuse coming my way,” Manning told the Denver Post.

In his Nationwide Insurance ad, Manning sings to his sandwich, “Chicken parm you taste so good”. So when the Broncos served chicken parm in the cafeteria, the gunslinger copped it.

“Mitch Unrein [Broncos teammate] sang the little jingle tune and he said he just couldn’t help it,” Manning said. Watch the ad, below. And listen out for “Chicken parm” to become a new Broncos play-call soon enough.

WIKIPEDIA SHENANIGANS

During New England’s win over San Diego, Ladarius Green copped an unbelievable hit by Brandon Browner in the third quarter. Green was completely shaken by the brutal knock, prompting internet scallywags to change Green’s Wikipedia profile, altering the receiver’s date of death to the game date.

That wasn’t enough though. The altered Wikipedia page of Browner also claimed the Patriots cornerback had been “charged with murder” of Green, and grimly describing that the Charger was “shovelled off the field”.

Rough.

49ERS FANS BURN JERSEYS

Fans of San Francisco have not taken their team’s loss to the lowly Oakland Raiders very well. On social media pictures and video has started popping up of 49ers fans burning their Colin Kaepernick jerseys. Hard to believe this is the same team that almost won a Super Bowl two seasons ago.

RAMS TROLL WASHINGTON’S RGIII DECISION

How did St Louis greet the fragile Washington outfit after they dropped star quarterback Robert Griffin III for their week 14 game? For their coin toss captains, they sent out the six players St Louis got in the 2012 draft trade with Washington that lost them the number two pick (RGIII). Cheeky play from Rams coach Jeff Fisher. But after two back-to-back shutout wins, they can afford to gloat a little.

FAURIA SHAKES HIS BOOTY

Detroit’s Joseph Fauria might be in the midst of a salacious love triangle involving Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, but that hasn’t stopped him from feeling the groove in the end zone. After latching onto one of Matt Stafford’s touchdown passes, the big tight end proceeded to twerk his booty. It was a little rigid. Maybe loosen up a little, Joe? But top marks for effort.

INTRODUCING, LAMBPIGCOW

Meat-eaters, you’ve just discovered your new favourite food. Lambpigcow. Making a turducken (turkey, duck, chicken) look like an amateur-hour creation, the unholy ‘lambppigcow’ is the newest addition to a restaurant in the San Francisco 49ers’ Levis stadium. Containing 24 quail, eight ducks, 12 chickens, six turkeys, two lambs, one pig and a huge cut of Wagyu beef, the meat is rolled up and roasted on a stick. America.

FANTASY WATCH

Jonathan Stewart — It’s not a fluke. Get on Stewart. Start him. If you don’t have him, get him off the waiver wire. Now. With 155 yards and one touchdown against New Orleans, Stewart has made the most of his time as Carolina’s top running back.

Charles Johnson — The Minnesota wideout has been good for double digits in recent weeks, and as quarterback Teddy Bridgewater gets more and more comfortable airing it out downfield, look to Johnson to be the one on the end of some handy touchdowns.

Johnny Manziel — The times they are a-changing. Brian Hoyer has failed to impress in recent games and Browns fans are calling for their first round draft pick to finally get the reps he’s been desperate for. It’s hard to tell what Johnny Football will produce, but he’s worth a shot if your QB stocks are worn thin. A true bolter.

Mychal Rivera — You want a roughie, you got it. The Raiders have been ordinary all year, but Derek Carr has managed to throw some touchdowns lately, and on the end of one of them in week 14 was Rivera. The tight end also collected over 100 yards in the win over San Francisco, so he could be a good bet as long as Oakland can keep their passing game alive.

Ravens D — On and off the waiver wire in most leagues this season, the Ravens could be a good pick-up in the pointy end of proceedings. They’ll aim to suffocate rookie QB Blake Bortles in week 15 and coming off some very strong performances, there’s every chance they’ll get the job done.

VINCE LOMBARDI QUOTE OF THE WEEK

Quarterback Robert Griffin III #10 of the Washington Redskins. Source: AFP

“Once you agree upon the price you and your family must pay for success, it enables you to ignore the minor hurts, the opponent’s pressure, and the temporary failures.”

RGIII has been sitting out games for Washington, and he isn’t taking it well. News has emerged of the out of form quarterback punting the ball on his own 40 minutes after practice, as everyone was in the lockerooms. According to reports, RGIII was punting the ball, running up the field, collecting it, and punting it back down the opposite end again. It’s a sad, sad scene.

But buck up, Rob. As Vince says, these temporary failures need to be ignored if you are to once again find success.
