David Garrard has yet to throw an INT, correct?

Al Harris has to be one of the most overrated corners I've seen.

A little addendum to the Taylor incident, from Sports Illustrated:

Team owner Dan Snyder said in a statement the team will contribute a minimum of $500,000 to a fund to benefit Taylor's daughter.

Nice move by the Redskins. Really shows they care.

[gunnar hendershow]

And some more good news regarding the Taylor tragedy -- they've made arrests and apparently have a confession. Let's hope they get these criminals and put them away for a long time.

[oldskool]

They've got four in custody, and at least 2 of them, maybe 3, are younger than me and I'm 21. That's just depressing as hell that those kids would have something to do with a break-in, let alone a fucking senseless murder.

[Trey]

They're saying that they were there to steal and not to kill, am I the only one not buying it because of the knife incident? Maybe I should, but it still just doesn't sit well with me.

[Lowerdeck]

If they were stealing and not killing, they wouldn't have fired shots so recklessly or at all.

They're rightfully fucked.

[Vendetta]

Yeah if they were there to steal, they wouldn't have taken a gun in with them.

I'd like to get footage of the Detroit Lions and make a documentary about them. I'd title it "The Detroit Lions: A Tragic Comedy of Errors".

They fucking suck. I don't understand this fucking team, this franchise really, and I don't think I ever will. Nothing they do makes sense, their players consistently find ways to redefine inept and futility, and nobody in charge does anything to change it. This season is probably over.

By the way, the Lions should be on the phone with Cleveland right now seeing if they'd be willing to deal Derek Anderson for their 1st and 3rd picks. I've been hearing that Cleveland is willing to deal him at the seasons end due to having Brady Quinn waiting in the wings.

And although I'd like to see Anderson in Detroit, that's not going to happen. They've got bigger problems than the quarterback position. Kitna is pretty solid for what the Lions do, they have bigger holes to fill. The defense just flat-out sucks, and the offensive line isn't great either.

Yeah, I don't understand them either. This season is even worse than others for us Lions fans, because I (and a lot of other people) thought that they actually had a chance to do something special this year. Usually I can tell by week three or four that their season is over, but this year they actually made me think that they were contenders.

[VerbalPuke]

Because they got off to a nice start, and gave the fans false hope.

Plus it looked like the offense would really open up with Johnson, but Mike Martz is proving that he is really an abysmal offensive coordinator. I think we all knew the defense would be bad, but they have been surprisingly good at times, but also disgustingly bad at others. They need a lot of work.

And while they do have bigger holes than the QB position, I've become increasingly soured on Kitna as the weeks have rolled on. He has no mobility, his arm strength is average at best, his decision making can be extremely poor at times, he holds the ball too long, and he has a tendency to fumble when he's not throwing picks.

I wish they hadn't IRed Drew Stanton, I'd have liked to seen him get some snaps this year if the opportunity arose.

Tutupu has killed the Eagles today. 3 INT's.

Washington just lost thanks to a 15 yd Unsportsmanlike Conduct penalty for trying to ice the kicker on what would have been a 50/51 yard attempt by calling 2 straight TO's. Wow.

[OGpistolpete]

Bodden of Cleveland is a fucking idiot. You don't fucking kick the ball after you stop them on three straight downs. God damn, this game has been a joke from the start. Interception for a touchdown, then a botched snap, and now this penalty that will probably cost Cleveland the series. Nice.

[oldskool]

To be fair, Lindell hit the initial 51 yarder that was waved off because of the first time out, and the second kick from 36 had the distance to go in from 51.

Joe Gibbs is a senile old douchebag.
