Morning Cup Of Joe

December 1st, 2025

Welcome to your Morning Cup of Joe, an eye-opener to help Joe’s readers ease into their busy workday with a few football links, wacky news and a pleasant distraction.

Distraction of the Day

Former Raiders offensive coordinator Chip Kelly rumored to be in line to get the open Kentucky job. Ah… HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! [PFT]

Are the Cowboys playoff-bound? [CBS]

Why did Bears coach Ben Johnson going topless cost a Chicago eatery a lot of cash. [Yahoo!]

He’s not dead (yet). [NFL]

Who knew Jethro could pitch? [TikTok]

Is anyone surprised that a guy who couldn’t figure out how to use Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold, Christian McCaffrey and D.J. Moore at Carolina wouldn’t be able to beat a team with a winning record at Nebraska? [Outkick]

Bratty Dan Hurley takes aim at network hollering shows. He’s not wrong, at least with FS1. Joe isn’t sure what the Barstool boys will do in their first winter with FOX but in past years, the FS1 hollering shows promoted the non-basketball association nonstop but never spoke about college hoops or even NASCAR and rarely talked baseball. FS1 doesn’t broadcast any non-basketball association games and only some college hoops games. FS1, of course, has NASCAR and MLB rights. Seemed backwards to give nonstop free promotion to your rival’s content and ignore your own network’s programming. [Awful Announcing]

Black Friday shoppers melt down because Walmart ran out of mac n’ cheese online. [New York Post]

It was a simpler time. [X]

Turkey boil. [TikTok]
