Brandon Jacobs is no worry for Giants coach Tom Coughlin. Brandon Jacobs is down on himself, and everyone else seems down on him, too. But not Tom Coughlin. He’s still high on his struggling No. 1 running back. “I don’t know why people keep talking about (Jacobs) turning it around,” Coughlin said Wednesday. “I mean the guy had some outstanding runs the other day. He had the usual number of power runs that he has. I don’t think there’s anything for Brandon to be down on. This keeps coming up. I don’t know what the expectations (are). He’s a power runner. That’s what he does.” – NY Daily News
Bears not interested in Bills’ Terrell Owens?. There isn’t a chance the Bears will engage in trade talks if the Buffalo Bills decide to shop Terrell Owens, the future Hall of Famer receiver, before Tuesday’s trade deadline. The Bears considered Owens in the offseason after he was released by the Dallas Cowboys and decided to take a pass. So far, that strategy has paid off. Devin Hester, Johnny Knox and Earl Bennett have emerged as equal threats, all on pace to have more than 750 receiving yards. That’s something no trio has done in franchise history. Offensive coordinator Ron Turner doesn’t see a need to add the controversial Owens. ”We’re happy with the guys we have,” Turner said. – Chicago Sun-Times
