    I dont' get it, how do people like him continue to get contracts? Not even talking about skill level, wasn't he injury prone in AZ too? Pretty useless if your can't count on them to even play, much less play well, as a "security" for being backup.

    Poor guy. Now he'll never catch JaMarcus Russell on the career touchdowns list.

    Speaking of which, J-Rock is available....

    I know, it's baffling

    Leftwich is another example. If he could stay healthy he'd be an excellent backup, but he never is

    Heard the texans will try and sign Rosenfels. Who went down with an illness in October. We'll see how long that lasts....

    Back to the original post - I can't even imagine breaking my collarbone. People do it, but gosh...I think I'd rather break an arm or a leg. When you break your collarbone, is movement in the head and neck restricted? I just...ouch.

    As a kid, I broke my right collarbone 4 times, all before the age of 8. I remember having to sleep on my back with a brace on and not being able to move too well. It was painful.

    The last time that I remember I was thrown down a dike (no, not a dyke) by the teen-ager who lived next door. I remember feeling the bone on bone as it must have been a clean break.

    But yeah, it does limit your mobility and yeah, I'd rather have my arm broken too. Especially if I were a pro athlete.

    I dont' think you need to worry about Favre, not only has none contacted him but he has no desire to even play anymore. Desire, that was the issue before. He always had the desire so he was willing to come back.

    According to wikipedia (for how much that counts) no one has picked up David Garrard. That could be a good fit. He knows the division. With running game he is a pretty good qb.

    Collarbone injuries affect the way you do beer bongs.

    Yeah, but this would only be for a couple of months. Not the same as taking a pounding for a full season...
