    Anybody want an overpriced, injury-prone outside linebacker with questionable conditioning?

    I really can't believe that I've gotten to that point with LaMarr Woodley, who the Steelers put on IR today, but he just hasn't been the same player since he got the big contract.

    The Jets and Browns should just play each other every week, compete in their own two-team division. They belong together. They are each others' spirit animal.

    This. It's a cold, hard world out there and you can't keep living off plays you made four years ago. With their season on the line, the Saints need a kicker they can trust, and they can't trust Hartley.

    Fact is, they were ready to cut him a month ago, then he hit three big ones in the fourth quarter against San Francisco and that bought him some time. But that time has run out.

    These guys always land on their feet, as members of the fraternal order of kickers, but 22 of 30 so far in '13 wasn't THAT bad, I thought. I wish they could have done it in the offseason but, yes, there is a Super Bowl appearance to be had here.
    One of our twin boys is named after Garrett, so it stings a bit to see him out on the tiles.
    I know he'll land safely.

    22 of 30 is that bad.

    Depends on where the misses are. If most of those eight misses are from 45 out, can't blame him as much. If he's missing chip shots, then yeah.

    He is 1 for 1 from 50+.

    He is 5 for 8 from 30-39.

    Half of Hartley's misses this year are from 40 yards or less.

    "Reflective" glory?

    More epic Bleacher Report hackery.

    Pathetic.

    And shocker. There's already been several other "sources" who have come out to refute just about everything in the Bleacher Report story. First, Cole fucked up the QB coach thing. He's never on the field during games. Always up in the booth. Cole went back and corrected that. And apparently, RG2 has been at Redskins Park like 4 times -- total -- in the last year or so. Quite the pain in the ass!!!

    Isn't this fun?
