Oakland coach Dennis Allen started Terrelle Pryor at quarterback Sunday at Indianapolis.
A San Jose man this week became the second person to sue San Francisco 49ers linebacker Aldon Smith and former 49er Delanie Walker, alleging that he was shot in the thigh during a gun battle at a raucous party at Smith's home near San Jose last year.
Peyton is still here. He's still active. Boy, is he active. And last night was more than dropping a double-nickel, like Jordan did against the Knicks on his comeback trail.
The 49ers face the Green Bay Packers at Candlestick Park Sunday in a key NFC match-up to open the season. "It's going to be a good one," John Madden told the KCBS morning crew, noting each defense is tasked with stopping two of the NFL's best quarterbacks.
Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning threw seven touchdown passes in Denver's 49-27 victory over the defending Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens Thursday night. "A year ago you weren't sure if he was healthy or he could take a hit," John Madden told the KCBS Radio morning crew.
Each team has just 16 chances to distinguish itself from the pack in order to secure a playoff spot and hopefully a bid in the Super Bowl. The question is, quite simply, will the Super Bowl champion emerge from the AFC or NFC?
At first glance it seems that the Packers and 49ers will both be at full strength for the match up Sunday. However, San Francisco will be without several players and will need to hold the fort until they get back their full roster.
The Raiders lost a lot of men to injury during training camp, but one man's absence in particular may cost them the game against the Colts.
The growing popularity of fast-paced, no-huddle offenses in college and pro football games has apparently led to more faked injuries on defense to slow the action and substitute more players. "It's something that has to be watched," John Madden told the KCBS Radio morning crew.
With the San Francisco 49ers and other teams expected to run a lot more read-option plays using running quarterbacks this season, how do coaches limit the hits the QB will take?
San Francisco faced some interesting decisions when deciding who to keep and who to let go when cutting down their roster to 53 players. After an offseason and four preseason games to evaluate, the team has named its roster for the 2013 season, and there were two players let go that are of note for two very different reasons.
Fourth-round pick QB Tyler Wilson and punter Chris Kluwe were cut to make room for two defensive players. Will this have any effect on the Raiders for their first game?
The Green Bay Packers signed Seneca Wallace and Scott Tolzien, two back-up quarterbacks the 49ers released last week. Are the Packers looking for inside information as they prepare for this weekend's season opener against San Francisco?
Two teams looking to erase the thoughts of 2012 are the 49ers and Packers. While the 49ers are trying to get back to the Super Bowl, the Packers are facing the team that not only ended their 2012 season, but did so in a rout. Both teams are talented and the winner will be the team to beat in the NFL after week 1.
The Oakland Raiders are going to face a tough opponent in week 1 of the 2013 NFL season. With a team like the Colts who went to the playoffs last year, the Raiders will have to keep an eye on key players in order to come out on top on this match.
"I think it's you watch him run and you advise him, give him tips. Certainly, the whole team is coached on how to run, protect the football," 49ers offensive coordinator Greg Roman says of Kaepernick, who set a postseason record for yards rushing by a quarterback.
Just lose, baby. The Raiders have mastered that twist on the late Al Davis' pet phrase, and even under the new regime led by his son, Mark, they have all the trappings of an also-ran.

Reggie McKenzie has spent most of his first two years as Oakland Raiders general manager tearing down a team mired in years of struggles. Despite underwhelming prognostications, McKenzie heads into 2013 with optimism about the direction of the franchise.
The AFC East has been simply known as Tom Brady's playground. A new defensive scheme installed by Defensive Coordinator Mike Pettine will help defensive tackle Marcell Dareus and his teammates prove to everyone that they won't be pushed around anymore.
The Patriots knew the kind of person they were getting when they drafted Aaron Hernandez.
Three years after the NFC West became known as the NFC Worst, this just might be the NFL's tightest and most talented division. "We're going to be good. We're going to be fine," 49ers running back Frank Gore said. "Everybody in our division, we know what they are."
The Raiders are playing this season with barely over half a deck as about 40 percent of their salary cap goes to players not on the roster. That provides a significant hurdle for a team trying to be relevant again after 10 straight years without a winning record.
Wide receivers in the NFL can either prosper greatly and make a big-time name for themselves or sit quietly in the background and move around from team to team. Kevin Walter is one of the few that has done both, and hopes to excel now with the Titans, since this may be his last chance.
