I don't mind some of the rules, but if they were serious about protecting players they'd use one of the newer helmets that are supposed to help protect the head better in collisions.

If they want to kill themselves for my entertainment and make lots of money doing it - so be it. I think James Harrison said something like "I don't care what happens to me as long as my family is taken care of". I think a lot of players have that mentality.
Think signing away liability is going to hold up when these cases start hitting the courts? Many, nay most, players will never make James Harrison money.

What a great drive by Romo. Hit him three times just as he's throwing and he completes them all.

The play to Murray was straight up awecome. The first one to Witten to was a bad decision, but it worked out.

Tebow was a little better today. His passing game was at least acceptable this week, but probably not in the "good" category.

That being said (and adding the caveat that I really like him personally), he's continuing to get way too much credit for the recent Denver success. He's not turning the ball over - he deserves credit for that, because it's critical for the current Denver team. But the defense is absolutely carrying this team, and nobody mentions it.

I'll apologize in advance for another week of media Tebow hype. It really is getting stupid. And again, this is coming from a guy that likes him.

The credit needs to go to the Broncos defense. They are playing really, really tough.

Do you think the Broncos are 5-1 with Orton?
