Byron Leftwich and Tank Johnson Find Homes

Now for a little general NFL news.  Byron Leftwich has agreed to terms with the Atlanta Falcons.  The deal is for 2 years and could be worth as much as $7 million dollars. It makes you wonder what took the Falcons so long.  There is no way that Leftwich will be ready for this weekend's game, but I don't think it will take him much time to take the starting job from Joey Harrington.  How badly are the Falcons wishing they hadn't made the Matt Schaub deal now.  The rest of the AFC south is wishing they hadn't made that deal as well with the Houston Texans starting 2-0.

In a more surprising development, the Dallas Cowboys have agreed to terms with Tank Johnson.  Johnson will not be able to play until after the Cowboys' 8th game because he is serving a suspension for his many mishaps with the law.

Of course this brings the discussion to our suspended player.  It has been nice around here because no one had mentioned him for a while until someone, who will remain nameless, mentioned him here.  Look I would love to see those punt returns again as much as any Titans fan, but it isn't going to happen this year and maybe ever.  Everyone from John Clayton to John McClain to Jim Wyatt are saying there is no way Goddell lets that player return this season.  He isn't here so there is really no reason to talk about him.

Leftwich...
Being a Falcons fan(as well as a Titans fan), I feel like this pick-up can't hurt.  Now, I don't know that he will really be any better than Harrington, but it at least gives us another option.  Neither of them are mobile, I just want whoever plays QB to actually get rid of the ball.  I believe Harrington has been sacked 13 times in first two games.  He is holding onto the ball WAY TOO LONG!!  Perhaps, Petrino should call plays with 3 step drops instead of 7.  Sorry for the length.  I wish I would get the Titans games every Sunday.

Sorry for bring up you know who!  But During Sundays game I couldn't help but think about how he would have helped on returns.
