 <title>SITE NEWS: Midseason Call for Game Charters</title>
 <link>http://www.footballoutsiders.com/extra-points/2009/site-news-midseason-call-game-charters</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Hello, FO readers. As always happens, a few people drop out of the game charting project during the season, so we're looking for a few additional charters. If you've read &lt;em&gt;Football Outsiders Almanac 2009&lt;/em&gt;, you know just how valuable this information is. The more charters we have, the quicker we can turn around the data and use it during the season. It becomes very valuable when it comes time for playoff previews.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Bruschi's Breakdown: Don't Underestimate the Dolphins</title>
 <link>http://www.footballoutsiders.com/extra-points/2009/bruschis-breakdown-dont-underestimate-dolphins</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;ESPN Boston's Mike Reiss and former Pats linebacker Tedy Bruschi cover all the bases in an exhaustive preview of Sunday's New England-Miami game. I've heard Bruschi break stuff down before (though not in this specific venue), and I've been tremendously impressed. More, please!&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Why Are So Many Quarterbacks Kicking So Much Ass</title>
 <link>http://www.footballoutsiders.com/extra-points/2009/why-are-so-many-quarterbacks-kicking-so-much-ass</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;A little e-mail conversation between Big Daddy Drew, MDS, and myself about this year's high quarterback ratings. Mike and I don't agree with Big Daddy Drew that the rise in silly ticky-tack roughing the passer flags is the cause of better passing numbers. However, I definitely agree that ticky-tack roughing the passer flags are annoying.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Year of the Kicker: Lather, Rinse, and Repeat</title>
 <link>http://www.footballoutsiders.com/extra-points/2009/year-kicker-lather-rinse-and-repeat</link>
 <description>&lt;p class="readermail"&gt;I swear to god, Len Pasquarelli writes this column every year. He points out sometime at midseason that kicking and punting numbers are at all-time highs. Last year, it was "Brian Moorman is going to break the all-time gross punting record" or some such thing. Len, dude, it is called "weather."&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Roy Williams: 'I'm The No. 1 Receiver'</title>
 <link>http://www.footballoutsiders.com/extra-points/2009/roy-williams-im-no-1-receiver</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Roy Williams in 16 games since being traded to Cowboys: 33 catches, 447 yards, three touchdowns&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Miles Austin in the last three games: 21 catches, 482 yards, five touchdowns.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the story, Williams claims that all the passes thrown his way are inaccurate, while those thrown to Austin are always precise. This is a fascinating case of a man in denial.&lt;/p&gt;
