- Troy Polamalu has been fined $15,000 for a horse collar tackle against Baltimore, which is sort of ironic because the Steelers have been bitching this week about the Ravens’ supposed dirty play.
- Some good news for the Rams: Once thought to be done for the year following a rather gruesome-looking elbow injury, Danny Amendola still isn’t ruling out playing Monday night against the Giants.
- With his contract status in limbo, DeSean Jackson took out a multi-million dollar insurance policy on himself prior to the season. Sounds like a great idea, which is why Jackson isn’t the only guy to do take such a measure.
- Jacquizz Rodgers is moving up the depth chart in Atlanta. The rookie out of Oregon State can be electric, and is too good to be kept on the bench.
- T.J. Houshmandzadeh finally had an opportunity to regain employment, but he had to edge Brandon Stokley and David Clowney to do so. And he did not win that battle. How the mighty have fallen…
- If the Giants lose Monday night and then fall to the Dream Team Eagles in Week 3, Tom Coughlin’s job security could become a major concern. So what’s the solution? Well, Ahmad Bradshaw wants more carries.
- What if Danny Watkins hadn’t missed five days of training camp due to a holdout?
- So it appears Brian Urlacher will indeed play Sunday against New Orleans following the death of his mother. Unfortunately, everyone’s putting big expectations on Urlacher’s shoulders, with a famous Brett Favre performance in mind.
- After years of being that weird kid in class who always has gum in his hair and smells a bit funny, the Detroit Lions finally fit in.
- I suppose it’d be difficult to harshly criticize Jim Caldwell with Peyton Manning out, right?
- Here’s an interesting account from one of the victims of the stun gun incident at New Meadowlands Sunday night.
- A different “Peyton” will be on display when the Colts and Browns play this weekend.
- Arrowhead Addict: Are Todd Haley‘s teams prone to blowout losses?
- Expect penalties to be a big factor in the Bills-Raiders game.
- Hey! This pornstar is a Packers fan! (SFW)
- The same head official who worked the controversial Super Bowl game between Pittsburgh and Seattle will be wearing the stripes when the teams meet this weekend. That has Total Steelers wondering if the fix is in against their team.
- Interesting take from Mike Tomlin on his grape-squashing Steelers…
Good luck to Urlacher. My condolances for his loss.
