But not one, not one in all the years Vitt had been here; only a bunch of league trouble and other drama...

Well, I'm glad, not for Payton's legacy, but for my home team, that Sean made the difficult, right, and long-overdue call...

Nolan, Nielsen are your co-MVPs; Cam's elite ascension; Linebackers that keep stepping in; reducing the passing time; list goes on...

Dude I don't remember anyone arguing for them to stay....like anyone at all, after last season.

I don't get it, how was this a difficult decision?

We had some old relics. The game has changed. Vitt should have been gone years ago. He's actually very fortunate he stuck to the wall as long as he did.
