Seahawks CB Brandon Browner faces a one-year suspension for violating the league's substance abuse policy again. The Seahawks are reportedly ready to part ways with the CB.

In other news, Aaron Rodgers has a "slim to no" chance of playing on Thanksgiving against the Lions.

One year ban? Wow.
And reportedly Robert Griffin III asked coaches not to show his bad plays during practice because it will mess with his confidence. Weird situation

That'll inspire confidence in his leadership among his teammates

RG3 just threw another bad INT. It'll be a short film session if they just show his good plays.

Chip Kelly has named Nick Foles as the Eagles' starting QB from this point forward. Michael Vick is now officially a backup.

Aaron Rodgers returned to practice today, but Mike McCarthy said today that his chances of playing Thursday are "closer to none". I'd expect him back for the Falcons game.

Holy cow the picks are tough this week!

 

[afar28]

Wow

I should have benched Lacy in fantasy, but with Moreno's injury that meant starting MJD and I figured anything Lacy does has to be better. I'm out the playoffs now probably.

Embarrassment for the Packers today. I try not to make excuses, but the Rodgers injury really hurt today (not that it didn't the past month). It's a tough road to the playoffs now. However, if we can win the remaining 4 games, and the Bears and Lions lose at least two more games this season, the Packers are in with a 9-6-1 record. Not impossible giving the Bears' and Lions' collapses as of late.

Meanwhile, I am the only one who's been in the pick'ems since the start who does not have 90 wins. I'm trailing at 85.

It's those blind faith packer picks . Don't be scared of picking against your team

I've actually been believing they are going to win the past few weeks. I honestly thought they were going to win today, but that didn't work out.

I need to get a stress ball for when I watch these Ravens games...

Aaron Rodgers would be lucky to play Next week vs Atlanta according to espn. And if they lose he will most likely be shut down.
Even better is that he's on my fantasy team and he was my first pick

Every Packer player has lost a lot of their value because of it. Its been making my comeback push to get into the playoffs a lot harder than it should. I need Andre Brown or Moreno (I still can't decide if Moreno can perform well this week after being run to death last week) to now make up for Lacy's bust in what was supposed to be an easy win.

I had some concerns about his O-Line so I steered away from picking him when I had the first overall pick in the palm of my fingertips. I'm agonizing my QB (Rivers vs Cincy or Kaepernick vs St. Louis) and TE (I'm waiting until 4 pm to know if Julius Thomas will play or not. He didn't play last week so I'm concerned. I've got Tony Gonzalez as my backup.)

From Jay Glazer's of Fox Sport's Twitter:
"Broncos don't expect Julius Thomas today but Moreno is good. Ellington, Ridley, DeAngelo Williams are out. Gonzalez also good to go"
My backup TE has a 1pm game so it was either bench Julius or risk a goose egg. The reports that have been coming out this morning have not been positive when it comes to him playing so I feel a little bit better about sitting him.

Well, that makes my plan for TE much easier. I admit that I agonized over possibly adding Coby Fleener or Delanie Walker from waivers last week. Now I've got to decide my QB conundrum and I have until 4 pm to decide!
