RIP to the comments section on PFT. Florio discusses the need for full-time officials; Germany sells out in 15 minutes; updates on DeAndre Hopkins, Dalvin Cook, and Tyreek Hill; today's mailbag ponders Antonio Brown's Hall of Fame chances if he hadn't run into trouble, the 49ers QB situation, and why West Virginia doesn't get more love.
PFT has a new look and readers have opinions; Florio explains why a replay review in the USFL is proof that the NFL needs to implement a permanent Sky Judge; the Shams Charania incident shows how the NFL must be wary of the slippery slope related to insiders and gambling; plus the usual mailbag
Florio discusses the Bills giving contract extensions to Sean McDermott & Brandon Beane, what would cause the Cardinals to move on from Kyler Murray, the imminent Commanders sale, why the next NFLPA executive director matters, and the usual # PFTPMPosse Mailbag.

Florio breaks down the Dalvin Cook lawsuit, where the RB may sign, Aaron Rodgers crowdfunds for his latest venture, Jack Jones' gun arrest, JJ Watt's media future, and the usual PFTPM Mailbag - including why Florio hates Jacksonville
Florio discusses the latest with DeAndre Hopkins, could the Bengals press Joe Mixon to take less money, are there loopholes in the NFL's gambling policy, thoughts on the new kickoff rules, and a return of the PFTPM mailbag
