The Big Three at 3:30 brings up the Broncos, now official, hiring of Marcus Robertson as their new Defensive Backs coach, the holding call on Eric Fisher this weekend that, in essence, cost the Chiefs tying the game against the Steelers and Phil Jackson meets with Carmelo Anthony to question his desire to continue employment by the New York Knicks.

The Closing Bell rings on Kyle Shanahan for the way the Falcons’ Offense has been playing and that the 49ers’ Head job is his for the taking. Also trending up are the NFL Playoffs after last weekend’s games. Trending down are the CSU Rams and New Mexico Lobos after their altercation after their game this weekend and Anthony Lynn calling the L.A. Chargers the “San Diego” Chargers.
