If i remember Childress had a problem with the pot smoking before the combine. But seeing how PH was prolly smoking it due to his headaches, it wasnt that big of a deal. I also remember watching him and Tebiw in FL and wondered how people could even defend him.

Percy Harvin is a great player. That goes without saying. But he's not the MVP of the league.

QBs win the award for a reason, their value provided above replacement level is gargantuan. Much higher than for RBs and WRs.

I know at this time the defense was gassed/discouraged but still it's fun to watch.

Bonus:

Every time I look at this I'm draw to #29 who does his dutiful best to try and catch Percy.

He should be returning punts.

Also featured in the wildcat. I want to see him throw a few TD passes this year.

It is tough enough on him returning kick offs let alone adding punt returns. Defenders running down the field, full blast could easily end his year, besides they have a very good punt return man.

yeah he deserves a new deal without a doubt.

I wasn't high on him because of the migraines and the start of camp leaving thing, but the
guy has been a game changer for us.

I actually agree they should get him an extension ASAP. They do not want him to hit the open market or he is going to cost big $$$. He has earned it, but don't run the risk of him going elsewhere.

when Shefter posted that on FB, you should see the massive amounts of hate, especially from ATL and GB fans. All he said was that Percy should get SOME VOTES, not win MVP. It is sad that some teams fans are so delusional.
