Cutler had one of those games that are the reason the Bears haven't given him a new contract yet.It's looking like a 8-8 record could win the NFC East.Big blow for the Pats losing Wilfork for the season.
Big win for me in fantasy,since saying my team was no good i've won 2 in a row Bit of an unlucky week for Cumberland Patriots as they got over 123 points but still lost

My teams just too good haha. 3 and 1 now and my team seems to be on fire. Cameron was a great pick off the waivers for me. My only position im not 100% on is RB. Id like a good RB for Mathews and a WR if anyone is interested. Not Cruz but any other WR if interested.
He had no worth to us anyway. He's not going to get a starting gig anywhere before the end of the trade deadline and no one would have brought him in as a backup on 8.4 million so the likelihood was always that he'd be a Buc until the end of the year.
That being said, I don't agree with the leak and what's been done. Freeman has done a job for us in the past and although erratic, can still have a role in the NFL. Just look at Alex Smith with the right coach.

He might be worthless to the Bucs but he was worth someone offering a late rounder even if just for first option on giving him a new deal.
Was a bone headed move by the Buccs and is absolute comedy that they will be paying Freeman $6.25mil to not be there Also makes them look a rubbish organisation to potential free agent targets. Fair play to Schiano though, if you're gonna go down you might as well take everyone else with you!
Like I said, Freeman was never going to get picked up off trades by anyone this season anyway so we would have had to pay the rest of his contract either way. At least this way the main distraction in the locker room has gone. According to sources the players were behind Schiano when he benched Freeman. He must have been doing something wrong if he's picked up $35k in fines since the start of the season.
As a Bucs fan I am well aware of the sometimes amateur way our organization is run, but in this case the problem is 1 of 2 people. At this moment in time I'm still behind the coach and will stay that way until the end of this year. If there continues to be more drama then obviously he isn't up for the job but I am fairly certain things will start to calm down now and we can get on with football.

What sources are those? As pretty much every piece I've read on this says Schiano has lost the locker room.
$35k in fines for someone who's on $6mil is very, very minor stuff. Schiano wanted his scapegoat, he got him. He also threw that scapegoat under the bus.
