so the packers have aaron rodgers and draft matt flynn, but there is no controversy. flynn plays 2 games and then signs a FA contract and moves on.

Thought Aaron Schatz of Football Outsiders did a good job of debunking the “controversy” of Cousins on twitter by pwning The Big Lead. There isn’t a QB controversy but there can be a question of why you take QB there instead of addressing other needs.

As painful it was to see Nick Young flourish last night, I don’t think the issue in Washington was his productivity offensively. The issue was with his motivation, Swaggy P was all about himself which was cancerous for a young, developing team like the Wizards. He’s a good complementary player for a good team like the Clippers, not a good centerpiece for a developing team like the Wizards.
