Peerless may be forced into retirement.

[lordofgun]

This from CBSSportsline.com:

News: According to reports, Peerless Price might be forced to retire because of an inoperable retinal condition. The Falcons discovered the problem last season but believed the disorder was treatable.

Analysis: Price has been a terrible bust in Atlanta, and this disorder could be part of the reason. Keep tabs on his status.

Is he blaming his lack of ability to catch the ball on his eyes now?

Head Coach Jim Mora on if he anticipates the Falcons making a move on Wednesday:
"I wouldn't anticipate it. Who are you talking about?"

Mora on if he envisions the Falcons releasing Peerless Price today:
"No. We have not talked about that today. I wouldn't anticipate anything today."

Mora on if he thinks the scrutiny put on Price is fair:
"I think that's just the way this business works. With free agency and the salary cap and the June 1 deadline, I think every team's going to have a player or two that the focus is on him and that hat's on Peerless right now. That's why you guys [the media] are all out here today. And he understands that. He understands the business. He's had a great attitude. He's worked his tail off, he's fit in and we're very pleased with him right now."

Mora on if he feels Price needs to step up:
"I don't think it would be fair for me to say that about Peerless. I can only evaluate him on last year -- he did what we asked him to do. We were in here learning a new offense together from inside out and I think it's been clearly stated that we want to get our receivers more involved and that just doesn't mean the receivers getting open and catching balls -- it means, as an offense, we have to learn our concepts better and develop more players into the flow of our offense, which is kind of the natural progression in your second or third year. I think it's just going to happen. If it happens, the offensive line blocks better, the backs run better routes, the receivers run better routes, Mike makes good decisions. But you're always going to get scrutiny at this level. It's a part of the deal. If you can't handle it, do something else."

Thank God we traded him.

Amen.

I wish Peerless nothing but the worst.

Well his vision sure deteriorated fast, since he turned from a 1252 yard 9 TD campaign in Buffalo to an overpaid 838 yard 3 TD average player in Atlanta in just one year.

It must've been his eyes.

Retinal?

Are you sure it wasn't rectum?

Maybe Peerless was hooking up with Ron off the field since Lord knows they aren't doing it on it...

Ron better watch out where he's pointing that thing. I guess nobody told him he could shoot somebody's eye out.

Peeless has a STD eye.
