Trent Edwards released by Bills

That seems a little... knee jerk and silly, even for the Bills.
A roster featuring Ryan Fitzpatrick and the comedy stylings of Brian Brohm at Quarterback and you can't find room for Edwards? Is there a cap or bonus reason to let him go now?
I presume he'll catch on elsewhere, if only because AJ Feeley is still gainfully employed, even if only by the Rams. If not, there's always Canada. You were living next door anyway.

Sorry to see how badly Saints kicker Garrett Hartley is struggling. To the point where maybe they are going to bring in somebody else.
He was awesome for them at the end of last season. He didn't appear to be burdened by any sort of mental challenges - he'd just go on and blast away. Pressure or magnitude of the moment didn't seem to be a factor. Reminded me of John Daly at the 1991 PGA Championship.
How fleeting those magic moments of prowess can be.

Granted, I'm not in America, and kind of disconnected from all coverage except for the Internet...
But am I the only one who thinks college football kinda sucks this year?
