Big fan of the HB but he's not the same since the injuries. Hope he comes back 100% though. He's fun to watch.

not the same in that he didn't make all pro, but he was plenty effective. think i read he lead the league in snaps too?

Can he still play? If hes anything like he was in his first few years im all about it.

Maybe I'm thinking of the wrong player, but I thought i saw something saying he played the most defensive snaps of any player in the NFL last year? something like 99% of his teams snaps.

What's it going to be then, eh?

Money Badger: So made the guys laugh here when we found out safety Tyrann Mathieu was released by the Cardinals, mostly because the Cardinals did not want to guarantee him $18.75 million over the final three years of his $62.5 million deal if on the roster March 16. By not doing so, the Cards will eat $9.3 million in dead money. That tells you they really did not want to commit that much money to the former Honey Badger. Then saw where in 2017 Mathieu had 74 tackles and two picks, and pointed out that Cowboys safety Jeff Heath, the guy endlessly picked on by fans, had 81 tackles and three picks. And that for a cap hit of $1.9 million. Come on, just sayin’.

Someone clearly just got out of a meeting with Jerry and Stephen.

I like how Spags uses Martin's 5th year option to counter the argument the FO is cheap in FA.
