It's been rumored for some time that the Miami Dolphins would face the Washington Commanders in Spain. On Tuesday, it became official. The game will take place in Madrid at the Bernabéu Stadium, home of Real Madrid FC, on Week 11 (Nov. 16 at 9:30 a.m.). It's the first-ever regular-season game in Spain. Both the Commanders and the Dolphins will be among the most interesting teams to watch this upcoming season though for vastly different reasons.

It may seem weird to ask about the legacy of someone like quarterback Derek Carr, who recently retired. Carr was never one of the elite pass throwers. He's not one of those quarterbacks where words like "legacy" are normally used. That word is normally reserved for someone like Joe Montana. Not Derek Carr. Yet Carr does have a legacy. It's the legacy of the luck of the draw. In Carr's case, bad luck.

The Dallas Cowboys are trading for wide receiver George Pickens. Good luck with that Cowboys. You're going to need it. Pickens is a world-class talent. Pickens is a world-class headache. Pickens is a speedy, brilliant receiver. Pickens is a pain in the backside that the Pittsburgh Steelers couldn't solve. If Mike Tomlin couldn't figure him out, how in the heck will the Cowboys? This isn't to say Pickens is a bad guy. He's no Antonio Brown, that's for sure. But he has been a problem in Pittsburgh.

The first time I met Bill Belichick was decades ago. It was after a training camp practice. We talked briefly and in those 20 minutes he crammed so much football, ideas, beliefs and strategies into the conversation it felt like a talk with an encyclopedia. More conversations would follow. Football on top of football wrapped inside a big ol' football. As you spent more time around the Patriots, you'd notice something else: Belichick ran the team with an iron fist. This is not breaking news.

RT @corryjoel: The Derrick Henry contract extension is along the lines of what I suggested in March. https://t.co/90wXdNIaFw
My issue with Star Wars has always been it lacked soul and heart. Lacked depth. Almost cartoonishly black and white. Failed to deal with all the issues that great science fiction always has. Then… …came Andor. My goodness this second season is some of the best science fiction
Normally I would say no but there’s a super pupper so yes
