Didn't McDaniels challenge a TD when the Broncos were already up by a lot?
Yeah. So? Weren't the Chiefs still trying to score when the Broncos were up by a lot?

Picture it as an unwritten rule. If you're up 42-17, why would you challenge the call?

Because Denver's defense is really bad. Heck they ended up giving up 30. It's not like the game ended in a complete blowout. Heck, the Chiefs were going for 2 right up until the final buzzer. But the Broncos are supposed to stop trying? There is no unwritten rule.

I don't think it's that big of a deal, but that's really something you just don't do. It's not like he was challenging an obvious blown call or turnover or something. It was an extremely close call and they were already on the 15. It would be like arguing balls and strikes up by 10 in the 9th.

I can't believe it's even an issue. If Haley is that thin-skinned, then he's in the wrong league. Like Tony Dungy said, be angry at your own team, not the team that just waxed you. Denver got beat 59-14 by the Raiders 3 weeks ago. McDaniels walked across the field and shook Cable's hand. I think it's a really obvious case of sour grapes, but whatever.
The Washington Redskins and quarterback Donovan McNabb have agreed to a five-year, $78 million extension, his agent told The Associated Press.
Fletcher Smith said $40 million of the deal will be guaranteed. A source told ESPN NFL Insider Michael Smith, who first reported the agreement, that McNabb's contract could be worth $88 million if incentives in the contract are reached.
McNabb, who will turn 34 later this month, agreed to an extension just two weeks after he was benched at the end of a loss to the Lions because coach Mike Shanahan said the quarterback didn't have a grasp of the team's 2-minute offense.
Shanahan later cited McNabb's ailing hamstrings as one of the reasons he pulled McNabb in the final minutes of the loss.
Smith told the AP that the benching had no effect on negotiations and McNabb is "happy to be a Redskin."
Last week, McNabb said he was able to clear the air in talks with Shanahan and offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan. He said he was satisfied with what he heard.
"Yes, I'm satisfied," McNabb said last week. "You get what you ask for, and after that you put it behind you and move on."
McNabb, who was traded by the Eagles to the Redskins before the season, faces Philadelphia on Monday night for the second time this season. He led Washington to a 17-12 victory at Philadelphia on Oct. 3.
