12/27/2007 6:25 AM
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports the numbers suggest that for Falcons RB Warrick Dunn, the end of his career could be close. In just one game during this 3-12 season has Dunn, one of the NFL's leading rushers over the previous three seasons, reached 100 yards. He didn't surpass it. He just got there. Dunn, 32, said don't be fooled by this "wasted" season. He can still play at a high level and he plans to come back for at least one more season to prove it. Any thoughts he had of retiring have been shelved after going through this "miserable" season in which he's rushed for 648 yards in 15 games. Read more

Porter was later fined three game checks — $141,176 — by the NFL for his role in the fight. Which brings us to Sunday. Read more

Quinn still waiting for his chance

Cleveland Browns
12/27/2007 6:18 AM
The Dayton Daily News reports is this the week rookie QB Brady Quinn gets in a game? He hopes so. Then again, he always hopes so. "I'm a quarterback," Quinn said Wednesday. "Every second of the game, you're always wishing you were playing. This game is no different than any other." With the Browns' regular-season finale against the San Francisco 49ers just about meaningless in any way that affects the playoffs, Quinn supporters think now would be a good time to see what the first-round draft pick from Notre Dame can do. Head coach Romeo Crennel says he'll wait to see how the game goes. Read more
