agree. i dont think the policy is properly defined. that the first step in anything.

The thing about it is, a player doesn't get suspended on his first positive tests. The fact Sherman is up for suspension means he had in fact failed one previous drug test prior to this one. Lucky for him, he won his appeal. However, it still doesn't clear him over the first failed drug test.

Adderall is being used as a competitive advantage, no two ways about it.

How did the Kansas city chiefs get 5 players in? And should frank gore have got in over our guy? Sorry if this has been discussed, haven't read all the pages. Anyways, Fletcher gets the shaft yet again.

Good read by PFF. Also note his comment about Laron Landry making the PB....lol

[quote]Jets fans will tell you LaRon Landry is one of the Top 5 safeties in the league. We’ll respectfully disagree because for all the big hits there are some bad angles, missed tackles, and a lot of plays made after the offense has essentially won the play.[/quote]

I really don't think Fletcher deserved to be in the Pro-Bowl this year. Too many missed tackles and blown plays, which is not like his play.


Before you go and start spitting out how many tackles he has over Willis or another LB. Remember this key fact, the Redskins couldn't stop anybody on 3rd downs which keeps the defense on the field for longer and ultimately leads to more tackles.

He's in part responsible for those horrible conversions. Riley has played better at ILB this year than Fletcher. (as noted by PFF's stats too)
