How could anyone predict he would break the arm again like that? He was cleared to play and football players play football, so he wouldn't have sat on my bench either.
Now what he does when he isn't on the football field is another discussion entirely. It has nothing to do with a broken arm or an infection, but everything to do with conditioning. That's mainly where my questions are.
You're right -- someone will overpay for these three.
Michael Turner was a solid signing for them from San Diego, but didn't have a good season in 2012, while Abraham never could stay on the field and Robinson was expendable. This was a smart move by the team on several levels.
Ah, but everyone loves a turn-around story and success after abysmal failure. It's fairy tale stuff.
You can bet if this guy is there where the Pats have him on their board, they will pull the trigger. He may not be Ty Law, but he's likely better than anything they have right now and IF this guy wants to change his life, NE would be the place to do it.
Besides, if McCourty stays at Free Safety, they need somone in center field that can put the hammer on 'em and it's not Woodson. Steve Gregory is doing that now (whiffing), for Pete's sake.
Really good point, but remember, none of them truly excelled. Reid, however, knows offense and the QB position. Donovan McNabb looked great under Reid, but awful everywhere else.
1) 'Super' Mario is not all that super. I believe Houston made the playoffs basically without him.
2) He was embarrassed in that game and is trying to come up with a story to defer criticism of his abilities, or lack thereof. He essentially did not show up.

Considering that he spent the NFL season on IR, maybe he should pick one and stick with that, but I just digress.
At least, that's how he's paid and it's not how he played.
