Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

Broncos Not Fond Of Chicken Poop

Every week the Bears are set to take the field the first question the opposing team gets asked is whether or not they are going to kick to Devin Hester.

Ex-Bears punter and current Denver punter, Todd Sauerbrun has the answer.

'We're not going to play chicken-[poop] ball,'' the former Bears punter told the Denver Post. ''We're not going to kick away from him. Hey, we respect the hell out of him and he's the best, but we have guys on our coverage teams that are paid to make big tackles.''

To a certain extent it is admirable when a team takes the attitude of this is what we are paid to do and if we can't then maybe we shouldn't be here, but on the other hand Denver is first place in the AFC West, but they are 5-5.  The Chargers have the same record and the Chiefs are one behind, if you can take a team's most potent weapon as a coach you have to do that.

Todd Sauerbrun ...
what a tough guy.  He just oozes toughness.  "Not going to play chicken-shit ball", man, that's some swagger.  I'm shaking just typing this, thinking about how tough Todd Sauerbrun is.  He was Mr. Tough when he refused to kick FG's for the Panthers a few years back unless he got some fines waived.

What a f'ing wanker.  He was a wanker when he played for us and he's still a goddamn wanker.  

I wouldn't ever go out to hurt anybody deliberately - unless it was, you know, important, like a league game or something. - Dick Butkus

Correct me if I'm wrong here...
But Saurkraut has never had a punt blocked.  I say we go after him.

Sour Krotch
You're right.  I never knew that - this page indicates that's true:

I say we really go after him, unless his toughness blows down our rush with one intimidating boneshaking look.

Sour Krotch is Toughness incorporated.  Just ask him.
