This is an article version of the CBS Sports HQ AM Newsletter, the ultimate guide to every day in sports. As we roll into Week 4 of the NFL season, John Breech has predicted the score of every single game on the slate, and he will be closely watching a big game in The Lone Star State. The Cowboys (1-2) and Texans (0-3) both need wins or they'll risk falling into a deep hole just prior to the quarter pole.
Unfortunately for Dallas, the NFL schedule-makers seem to have a bone to pick because the Cowboys have to do something no other team has done in league history. You can get the compelete slate of picks right here -- along with Pete Prisco's game-by-game picks -- but here are a few of Breech's score predictions: On the topic of scheduling, the winless Dolphhins have gotten a historically tough draw through the first month of the season. The good news for Jeff Hafley is that things could be worse.
You could be Mike Vrabel fielding questions about rumors of a rift with Drake Maye. We've entered October, and the sounds of the college football coaching carousel are faint, but they're growing louder. in that spirit, our own John Talty has conducted a hot seat check on coaches around the country. Some coaches, like Bill Belichick at North Carolina and Jeff Lebby at Mississippi State, have improved their standing.
But Mike Norvell is not in that group. Florida State is off to another mediocre start, and a gargantuan buyout can only protect Norvell for so long unless he starts picking up wins. Mike Elko didn't make Talty's list -- nor should he -- but it's hard to like anything we've seen from Texas A&M so far.
That's why Elko lands among our list of six coaches who didn't earn their paychecks in September. On the flip side, Florida OC Buster Faulkner and QB Aaron Philo have been worth every penny. ⚽ UEFA Nations League: Norway at Wales, 2:45 p.m. on FS1 🏈 Western Kentucky at NMSU, 8 p.m. on CBS Sports Network ⚾ Game 3: Phillies at Braves, 8 p.m. on NBC 🏈 Steelers at Browns, 8:15 p.m. on Prime Video 🏈 North Texas at Tulsa, 9 p.m. on ESPN 🏀 Game 3: Fever at Aces, 9 p.m. on USA Network
