NFL Noodlings- Tank Johnson Released by Bears

- The Tank Johnson saga apparently has ended for the Bears today, as the team waived the defensive tackle. Johnson was recently released from jail, and was stopped in Arizona this weekend on suspicion of drunk driving. He's not the Bears' problem anymore, he's gone, and they will have to get 25 tackles and 3 to 5 sacks from the defensive tackle position from someone else in 2007.

- Every single NFL coach who struggles this season is going to have the mustachioed spectre of Bill Cowher looming over them. Already, Cowher's name has surfaced in rumors regarding the Cowboys' and Redskins' head coaching positions.

-2006 NFL Defensive Player of the Year Jason Taylor has expressed concern over the Dolphins' decision to make Trent Green their starting QB for this season. Given Green's concussion history, Taylor told Sports Illustrated, "One big hit, and he could be scrambled eggs". Then they could call him "Moons Over My-Hammy".
