1. There has been a lot of fallout from Saturday’s blockbuster trade between the Lions and Rams that saw quarterbacks Matt Stafford and Jared Goff swap teams.
One unexpected turn of events was Fox’s lead analyst, Troy Aikman, getting dragged into the mess.
In a glowing column on Goff for NFL.com, writer Michael Silver called out Aikman for criticizing the quarterback over the course of the season.
“Routinely trashed this season on FOX telecasts, specifically those with Troy Aikman as the lead analyst, Goff could reasonably assume that McVay's words about his quarterback's play in network production meetings were far from glowing,” wrote Silver.
