How many games has Ronnie Brown sat out for his off season DWI?
While I agree that Edwards probably should have been sat for the game, I also think he needs to be treated exactly the same as the other players in the same situation and it is hypocritical to complain about Braylon Edwards and give a free pass to everyone else who has done the same thing.
