Monday's A.M. Hot Clicks
NFL Roundup
If there was one word to describe Week 11 in the NFL it was anger. Everyone's ticked off at someone, whether it's longtime Texans teammates Andre Johnson and Matt Schaub bickering on the sideline, the referee who reportedly called Redskins tackle Trent Williams a "garbage-a** disrespectful mother f***er…” or Saints linebacker Ahmad Brooks calling out a ref using much the same language. But that's not all. Texas running back Ben Tatechallenged a Twitter tough guy to a fight, Eagles running back LeSean McCoy snatched a banner from a Redskins fan during pregame warmups and Jaguars defensive end Jason Babin ripped out Cardinals running back Andre Ellington's hair while making a tackle. Meanwhile, Dolphins fans took out their anger on GM Jeff Ireland by hiring a plane to fly this banner over Sun Life Stadium, Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III took some veiled shots at coach Mike Shanahan while Miles the Broncos Mascot took out his frustration on the goal post, which is strange since Denver proved to be football's best team last night.
