Dolphins offensive coordinator Clyde Christensen said this week that quarterback Matt Moore is a “gunslinger” who doesn’t take “stupid chances” with the ball.

Most recently, Thielen generated a 71-yard catch and run for Minnesota’s first touchdown of the day — and its longest play…

A short touchdown run by Chris Ivory put the Jaguars up 16-7 on the Titans late in the second quarter Saturday. It’s 19-7 at halftime, and the Jaguars probably think it should be worse.
