His OL is banged up and he has one of the worst receiving corps in the league. It's hard to look good at QB when you have what he has to work with.

Now he just knows what Favre dealt with for years, only he's not relying on un-retiring Ahman Green as his running back.:spinny:

Man, he was so close. All he had to do was walk out and not say anything to the media. It doesn't matter that the letter was there all season. What matters is that he made a conscious decision to leave just that one item in his locker. It's a passive-aggressive stunt, and it tells decision makers around the league that he still doesn't get it, and he still doesn't accept his share of the blame in how things went sour for him in DC. Time to grow up.

Poor o-line play will make any great QB look ordinary. Happened to Brady last year early in the season before the Pats went on a tear (remember the bench Brady for Garropalo discussion?), happened to Luck this year, and there are probably any number of examples if you look further back.

Im confused on what that note is such a bad thing.

Doesn't seem like a big deal to me. RGIII might have some growing up to do but I don't see this as proof.

If Brown was acting, that's some commitment to the role. The Steelers are really going to struggle to put points on the board in Denver if Brown can't go and Roethlisberger is limited by his shoulder injury.

Roethlisberger apparently has torn ligaments in his shoulder. I'm guessing he plays and gets hurt worse during the game so Landry Jones plays a majority of it.

I think you're right. And if that's the case then that's a game the Broncos should win. No excuse for losing at home to Landry Jones, even with an anemic offense.

Broncos and Cardinals should cruise. Think SEA-CAR and KC-NE could be really great games though.
