THE HARRISONS

In honor of Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison’s bold stance, our weekly award for NFL players who didn’t even deserve a participation trophy in Week 9.

PERRISH COX

The Tennessee Titans won a hard-fought game against the New Orleans Saints, but that doesn’t mean they all played well. Cox, a cornerback, was getting picked on worse than a week-old scab, giving up three completions of more than 30 yards.

HA HA CLINTON-DIX

The Green Bay Packers safety played just horribly and then got into a blow-up with teammates on the sideline. That’s a bad day, and all of the apologizing he did on Twitter doesn’t make up for it.

PIERRE GARCON

Any chance the Washington Redskins had against the New England Patriots required a good start. But allowing one pass to bounce off his hands for an interception and dropping another on fourth-and-11 pretty much ended the Redskins’ hopes barely a quarter into the contest.

LAMARCUS JOYNER

We watched it over and over and tried to give you the benefit of the doubt, Lamarcus, but that was definitely a cheap shot on Minnesota Vikings quarterback Teddy Bridgewater in our opinion. No trophy ... but maybe a big envelope from the league in your locker at St. Louis Rams headquarters this week. That’s how they deliver fines.

AQIB TALIB

With the game hanging in the balance, the Denver Broncos cornerback got into the middle of a dispute between teammate Von Miller and the Indianapolis Colts’ Dwayne Allen and poked Allen in the eye. That gave the Colts a first down near the goal line and all but ended the Broncos’ chances. The Three Stooges might have been proud. We weren’t.
