Vince Young, Colt McCoy and Vernon Davis were among the players who suffered injuries in Week 11. Here’s a bullet-look at injuries around the league.

It’s always been my mentality that you have to play a young quarterback to know what you have in him. The time for the Browns to play rookie Colt McCoy is now. If they don’t play him, they won’t know.

The Browns used three gadget plays in their win over the Saints, and they all worked to perfection.

I was very encouraged at what I saw from rookie QB Colt McCoy. I don’t know that you could ever put a rookie quarterback in a more difficult situation in his NFL debut than what McCoy faced against the Steelers.

Anyone wearing white and taking snaps Sunday in Pittsburgh is taking plenty of hits. One of them — WR/Wildcat QB Joshua Cribbs – won’t return to the game after suffering a head injury.

How must it feel to be Browns rookie QB Colt McCoy right now? You are about to get your first NFL career start. But it comes against the Steelers. And if that is not bad enough — and that’s bad — your team’s best player is questionable.

Peyton Hillis has been a fantasy star this season, but he’s a major risk in Week 6.

Chiefs coach Todd Haley has called the battle for starting spots along the 3-4 defensive line an “open competition,” fueling the idea that one of the team’s recent top five picks at defensive end — Glenn Dorsey or Tyson Jackson — could be sent to the bench.

Lambeau Field’s not-quite-frozen tundra hosted an intimate crowd of almost 48,000 for the Packers’ Family Night scrimmage Saturday night.

NFL Total Access is back Monday (7 p.m. ET) with host Rich Eisen, analyst Marshall Faulk and insider Michael Lombardi to discuss the latest offseason topics.

Hall of Fame receiver Michael Irvin talked to rookie Dez Bryant about the “enormity” of wearing No. 88 for the Cowboys.

St. Louis QB Sam Bradford will wear No. 8 in honor of Cowboys Hall of Fame QB Troy Aikman. And like Aikman, Bradford is the most likely rookie quarterback to be starting in Week 1, according to NFL Network’s Charlie Casserly and Michael Lombardi.

Texas coach Mack Brown isn’t at all disappointed Colt McCoy lasted until the 85th overall pick, calling the Browns “a great place” for his former quarterback.

With Browns fans chanting loudly here at Radio City Music Hall, and Longhorns coach Mack Brown striding up to the podium, it was time. “With the 85th pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, the Cleveland Browns select Colt McCoy, quarterback, Texas,” announced a beaming Brown.

It looks like QBs Jimmy Clausen and Colt McCoy‘s slide down the draft is going to continue for a while.
