Winners: Chargers, Redskins, Chiefs, Packers, Redskins

Losers: Bills, Cardinals, Browns, Bears

Thought it was funny(and completely true) they put Bears on the losing end when most bears fans seem to think they will be in the SB next year with Peppers.

Nothing about the Panthers in this article, though.

chargers winners by losing a top 10 DT before he was injured in Jamall Williams, and a future HOF RB? lol. "ok"

Chargers winners because the fanaggled a better second round pick and a future 3rd for a guy that has never completed a pass in the NFL.

Jamall had a lot of miles on him as did LT. It was time to move on from these two. Sproles is still up in the air but he needs to be on their roster next year. The ass raping the Bolts did to Seattle was outstanding and will no doubt net a premium running back or nose tackle this year as well as a high 3rd rounder next year.

yup, moving up that far into the 2nd gave them a legitimate shot at getting Terrence Cody.

also: the argument about LT being released is lolz. that's like saying because Delhomme was good back in the day he is good now. LT averaged less than 4 yards a carry. if you watched him play it was painfully obvious he lost his burst and speed, he's not the same running back he was 3 years ago. and Williams has been injured for a long time, and is old as balls.

redskins? Adding Larry Johnson and Rex freakin Grossman makes them a winner? way to go Washington....Super Bowl 2010 Champs

I think it was more to do with the fact that they didn't overspend this year in the FA market. They didn't offer Peppers a bajillion dollars, so thats better than before right?

      XL about to turn the corner

      He’s set financially for life barring complete fiscal lunacy. He has $12.3 million guaranteed. Think about that. Twelve million three hundred thousand dollars, he’ll be 28 years old when his contract is up and he’s completely forgotten about if he never plays another down in the NFL if he so chooses. Say after taxes he ‘only’ brings home $6M (fire your accountant territory) and parks $4M in a run of the mill mutual fund… good God… What I’m getting at, IF homie ain’t feeling the NFL, he has 12,300,000 reasons to take the fewest NFL edition ass kickings as possible while waiting out his very wealthy non-football future.  Obviously completely talking out of my a$$ with this… but if you hated contact, didn’t want to live with a completely wrecked body for the rest of your life and you know you’re set financially… what path would you take, assuming you’re cool with being a quitter (not calling him a quitter, I’m just playing out a scenario)? Why do so many first rounders bust? Where was he before his one year wonder if he was such a stud?  Everybody likes the dude on a personal level. How could you not? …. but I like seeing a winning product even more. He doesn’t play like his head is in the game. The Why is where the speculation lies and helps to clarify if his issues are ‘fixable’ or not.

      Very likely that he needs another season or two to really find his groove.  It very well may not be here where he has his best season. He’s a physical standout, but he can’t seem to get his focus and mentality right. That non-catch where he didn’t get his second foot in bounds was a truly awful display of this. Every professional in this game makes that catch.  Last week, it was clear that he wasn’t playing in top gear.  Like so many young people these days, he wants success without working hard.  He wants maximum reward for minimum effort. He wants to rest on talent. But talent alone won’t cut it.  The foolishness of youth and inexperience.  He can have it all if he wants it.  Seems like he’s content to be a social media star and a forgettable football player.
