Why not? Who else you gonna pick up at this point that would be any better to be backup to the backup?

Besides Jon Kitna is the man,the world needs more people like him.If youve read about what he's been doing since he retired its pretty awesome,and he's donating his game check to the school he teaches at

You are right, that stuff that he does off the field is pretty cool.

But that's kind of the on-field point: He's been doing more nice things than actually playing at an NFL level so the rust must be deep. Also he's just old. Finally, he was never that good to begin with.

The season is almost over!!!

It's regular season, so only 1 OT allowed. That said, a tie would be a good finish, shame we can't see Romo/Garrett choke one away 3 seasons in a row. I think I want the Eagles to win, for the joy of watching Dallas fans conniptions of 3 seasons in a row of 8-8 and losing in the season finale.

I had to google conniptions.

Can you actually believe they signed him though? I don't think anyone could have expected that

I guess its kind of surprising since hes been retired for couple yrs,I guess Garret wanted a veteran they were familiar with

Hell Garrett would be a better choice , at least he knows the Offense .

I would think Kitna knows it,it probably hasnt changed much since he left.I would bet thats one of the reasons they went with Kitna,because he does know it

[SFREDSKIN]

Morris and Garcon should have made it to the roster instead of alternates if someone gets hurt.

[skinsfaninok]

The fact that hall didn't get in is stupid

[Chico23231]

X hookies kam chancellor and Brandon flowers are beast. Flowers probably the corner over the last 5 years that nobody talks about.

Garçon had better years than both aj green and Brandon Marshall

[donofriose]

AJ Green has been better than Garcon this year. Only stat Garcon is better in is receptions. Plus honestly, who wouldn't take AJ Green over Garcon. AJ Green is a top 5 receiver right now.

Alshon Jeffery should have made it over both his teammate and Garcon. Man has been an absolute beast.

Also the fact that Lavonte David did not make it is a joke. Right now he is the best 4-3 outside linebacker and should be getting some consideration for DPOY.
