Buccaneers | Ex-GM: No tag for Jameis Winston

Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Jameis Winston is coming off an up-and-down season in which he hit career highs in yards (5,109) and touchdowns (33) but also interceptions (30), including seven pick-sixes, and former Buccaneers general manager Mark Dominik said it’s time the Bucs and Winston part ways. ‘I would be surprised if they pay him,’ Dominik told PewterReport.com. ‘Maybe they will. It’s their decision, but I would be shocked if the Bucs franchised Winston — or transitioned him. I think the decision they have is certainly difficult because there has been some production there, but I don’t know how you could justify paying Jameis Winston more money this year than he made last year.’

Chiefs | Brett Favre sees self in Patrick Mahomes

Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes reminds retired QB Brett Favre of himself with some of the traits he has displayed on the field. ‘I see the comparison,″ Favre said. ‘He may not admit this but he probably feels there is no throw he can’t make or no angle he can’t make it from. Whether he’s flushed left or to the right, his vision always is down the field. I was always looking for the big play first and knew I could always react underneath if I needed, too. You have to have a certain confidence or air about you that you can make any throw, and it has been proven he can make any throw.’
