Sam Hurd is the best of that list.

It is absolutely ridiculous how great Barry Sanders was as a player.

Jon Gruden says more: "Too many high-profile, great players. And if they don't win more than 10 games, they got a lot of explaining to do." Don't let Dan Snyder and the performance of the Washington Redskins for the last ten years enter into your analysis.

Does the League control over when a team changes its jerseys, colors, etc? It is refreshing to see that the other leagues, especially the NBA, are ditching the 90s and 00s nightmares for simpler or more retro looks. Wish the NFL would follow.

Oh I do. They don't have a window of losing a year to the tomfoolery of Leinart and Anderson behind Center. I think they will be definitely looking for a QB before the beginning of the season, most specifically Sage Rosenfels. Fitzpatrick? Ehh. Only if Plans A and B fall through.

Alan Faneca Adam Pacman Jones Charlie Whitehurst Willis McGahee Mike Vrabel Lito Sheppard Deion Branch As for the Bills, the big surprise to the media would be Cornell Green, but no real surprise to anybody who's watched the preseason games.

I don't know what to think about the Washington story. It's intriguing that a national media source such as ESPN writes an in-depth, positive article on a guy who is a convicted sex offender. It intrigues me that no NFL team, playing in a win at all costs league, will not kick the tires on the guy. If you consider all of the other pure garbage players bring (spousal abuse, dogs, attempted murder, DUI, manslaughter) to the league, and the league tolerates, it decides to draw the line on the sand for this guy, who's crime was previous to his entry in the league. I just don't get it. Things don't add up here. It makes you wonder if NFL Security did it's homework, and there's something there, something ominous and radioactive that we all don't know.

I laugh at Pete Carroll's secret plan to reconstitute the USC Trojans team in Seattle. I feel for Arizona fans. They have all that weaponry on the field, legitimate contenders and it all lives or dies on Senor Hottub and Shotgun Arm.

I think Hardy is very expendable if: 1. He gets injured. Again. 2. There are WRs released from other teams that interest the front office.

I'm not down for adding more regular season games. I'd rather see the NFL get creative with the playoffs and add the two games there somehow. I wouldn't be disappointed in seeing preseason shortened.

So you are saying we've out-Jacksoned ourselves?

I agree. Hardy is a goner. He's taking up a valuable roster spot. He's our version of what Chad Jackson was to the Patriots.

Man, the writing is on the wall in Jacksonville. With those crushing capacity numbers, should be renamed the Jacksonville Blackout. If anybody is moving to Los Angeles, the black hole of NFL markets, it'll be Jacksonville.

If death was the penalty for being horrific prognosticators, weather"persons" and sportswriters would go the way of the dinosaur. Those are the only two professions where you can be so wrong, so often, and still retain your job.

I may be in the minority, but I think they part ways with Hardy. He's always injured and taking up a roster spot. He's of little value to the team if he isn't out on the field.

I don't think so. I think he's a free agent like the rest of them are.

I am not one to sign every single "name" out there on the waiver wire, but I was curious as to why the Bills never kicked the tires on Adalius Thomas. I know he can't move laterally worth a damn, but he can rush the quarterback and get to him. And not sure you'd find anybody else with a bigger chip on his shoulder when playing NE.

When you win six games despite being Jauroned, that's a great evaluator of talent on hand, IMHO.

I'm shocked about John "Rasputin" McCargo. I still expect him to be one of the cuts.

Who heckles at training camp? Really? That's embarrassing.

Defer? There's no deferring in football. You don't let the other team get a shot at punching you in the face first. Ever.

I think Buffalo, and the entire sporting world would say not a thing. Stunned silence. in. awe. It would eclipse the Miracle On Ice. You see, Buffalo would enter the Superbowl as massive underdogs against an absolute juggernaut of an NFC team... ...and in righting all the wrongs of the last decade, pull out the win in the last second.

I think it's about being smart spending the money. Haynesworth had a reputation for the behavior he demonstrates today. No amount of money or coaching is going to correct a headcase.

I'd like to see Brohm go up against Cincy's defensive starters. That's the true test. Flip the Brohm/Edwards order around and see if Brohm can get anything going against a fairly talented defense that shut down the Eagles last week.

He is a clown mentally. No matter the time on the field or amount of coaching will ever change that.
