Break out the mop and bucket, it's going to be a bloody mess in the NFL next week.

 

Will thanks for the Goldson news. I might have missed that one in my fantasy as he is the last man listed on my roster and I might only have focused on offense. Dropped him and Amerson for Griffin and Parker. Now I have to give Ivory some serious starter thought over Woodhead (or CJ) in PPR.

 

Cam Newton picked his son's name. It is decided. It is Chosen.

 

$300,000 bonus i guess. Somebody's out some cash.

 

46-43 overall record with only 1 playoff berth in 6 years. What a keeper.
