Unless you have been living under a rock, you know that Flores is suing the NFL, Miami Dolphins, New York Giants, and Denver Broncos for various reasons. He is suing the NFL because they haven’t been able to come up with a productive way to get minority coaches hired. The Dolphins, because allegedly owner Stephen Ross offered him $100K per loss during the 2019 season. The Giants are on his hit list because they allegedly made up their mind to hire Brian Daboll for head coach before interviewing him for the job, thus circumventing the Rooney rule. The Broncos were named because Flores believes when he was interviewed for their head coaching job, general manager John Elway and another executive showed up late and hungover.
The NFL is investigating the allegations against Ross and the Dolphins.
The Rams just defeated the Bengals in Super Bowl LVI, but the Bills are favored to win Super Bowl LVII at +700. The Steelers not so much at +6500. You can find the lines for every team at FanDuel.com.
