NEWS, NOTES & QUOTES FROM CBS SPORTS’ “THE NFL TODAY” WITH JAMES BROWN, DAN MARINO, SHANNON SHARPE, BILL COWHER AND BOOMER ESIASON FOR WEEK 8 ON OCTOBER 30
BILL COWHER TO REMAIN WITH CBS SPORTS
BILL COWHER ADDRESSED RUMORS AND SPECULATION ABOUT COACHING NEXT YEAR ON CBS SPORTS’ PRE-GAME SHOW, “THE NFL TODAY”
QUICK HITS
(On Andy Reid and Philadelphia)
COWHER: The story to me is in Philadelphia. Andy Reid coming off a bye, has not lost his entire career in Philadelphia. Although he’s playing a Dallas team that’s won five-of-the-last seven. You talk about a statement game. To me, this is their Waterloo. They have to win this game at 2?4 at home playing against Dallas.
(On San Diego’s Kris Dielman suffering a concussion and continuing to play, then suffering a seizure)
BOOMER ESIASON: (Over video of the play and Dielman looking wobbly) Take a look at this video we have from last week’s game against the New York Jets. Another example, in my estimation, of negligence on the part of the San Diego Chargers and their medical staff. Now, there is a lot of pressure for him to stay in the game because there are no other linemen that can play. But you can clearly see here. What about his teammates saying something? How about the referees saying something? Yet he played and finished the game out. Then it was reported that he had a seizure on the way home on the airplane. I’m always talking about concussions, managing them and looking out for them. This was a clear dose of negligence in my eyes on the part of the San Diego Chargers and their medical staff.
