Even so, five former quarterbacks could only marvel Monday at what Dobbs did in engineering (pun intended) a 31-28 comeback win over Atlanta five days after joining the team.

Nearly 1 million chickens have been culled at a Minnesota egg operation, by far the largest death toll at a single Minnesota poultry farm during the current bird flu outbreak that started last year.

Disease management protocol requires all birds at an operation where the virus is detected be culled to lessen the spread. In Minnesota about 5.5 million birds, mostly turkeys, have...
