The Harrisons: Odell Beckham definitely didn't earn a trophy in Week 15


In honor of Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison's bold stance, our weekly award for NFL players and coaches who didn't even deserve a participation trophy in Week 15:

ODELL BECKHAM JR.

The New York Giants superstar dropped a sure touchdown early. He committed three major penalties. And he obviously put himself before his team the entire day against the (still) unbeaten Carolina Panthers. Just completely out of control. Not a nice look for Beckham or the Giants.

BUFFALO BILLS

Our first team award. They just didn’t show up in Washington on Sunday. And to think they said they were ready to challenge the New England Patriots before the season started. Now the Bills are punching “no-show” tickets in Week 15 ... and won't be punching playoff tickets for the 16th consecutive year.

MATT CASSEL

Enough is enough. Even the Dallas Cowboys must think so by now after benching him Saturday. But before going to the sideline, Cassel threw an interception on the same play he was penalized for intentional grounding. So at least you have that. No trophy, though.

VERNON DAVIS

The Denver Broncos tight end had his second big drop in two weeks. And this one featured “alligator arms” because he would have gotten hit like, well, like tight ends get hit. It ended a big drive with about seven minutes to go in a tie game, and the Steelers took advantage in a game Denver needed to win. Davis has to make that catch. Davis used to make that catch.

ERIC MANGINI

We know you can only play with the pieces you're given, but the San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator has turned Johnny Manziel and AJ McCarron into Pro Bowl quarterbacks the past two weeks. Once known as “Mangenius," not so much anymore.
