But they're too busy preparing for their playoff game against Indy.

They have a serviceable QB, and one of the best GMs in the league. We have 3 3rd stringers. I said at the beginning of the year that all I wanted from Sanchez was to take command of the huddle, and be decisive. Obviously he chose to go the other way. If Rex made the playoffs this year it would have been one for the ages. If we had, say Matt Moore, we make the playoffs easily.

I often wondered how Troy Polamolo never got injured. He hits like a tank and flies around recklessly; well he finally did. I think conditioning helps but when you play a lot in games I think it helps develop dynamic muscles that you don't get from weights or slo mo exercises.

Not in past years. He was a beast until recently. This is the first year I recall. He's 31 so I guess parts are wearing out.
