If Norwell wasn't being paid so much, I'd say give Richardson some work at LG. 

Norwell needs to play so much better, hes been god awful. I don't know if he's playing really injured or something, but hes been far and away our worst guy on the OL this season. That $16m cap hit for him this season is not looking good.

At this point I don't care how much they're paying Norwell. Put Richardson in and see if he does any better. If he does then he gets the job. I don't see how it's any different than the Giants benching Eli Manning for their back-up QB. Manning clearly makes more but he's not getting the job done so ride the pine he is. I realize there is a difference between a QB and a OLineman, but if these guys are allowed to play simply because we paid them a boatload of money but they're not earning it, that's just dumb and it allows them to become lazy.


I do seem to remember hearing earlier in the season, or maybe preseason, the Norwell was playing with an injury. If so, sit him out to let him heal and put Richardson in.
