The Saints offense is so good because everyone's job is hard, and they do it very well.

Personally, I would change jobs tomorrow if I could get that same trade.

It couldn't have been that hard to get into a groove knowing that we've ranked as one of the best offenses in the NFL the past gazillion years... then parlaying that into becoming the highest paid guard in the NFL.

I'm sure it was an awful time.

I wonder how much money it takes to make losing feel alright?

$9.5 million, I assume.

Wonder exactly how he'll grade out now that he's protecting a marginal quarterback with a so-so supporting cast.

i don't know why these guys don't just admit to going to the highest bidder. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. There's a huge difference between 8 mil and 9 mil.

The Ravens ran 64% of their offense behind Grubbs, guess we're trading down...........whatever. Bye Carl, good luck.

Wasn't LeGarrette Blount benched last year?
