The chicken, brat and weather reporter: Why Cardinals' Justin Pugh turned to life coach

TEMPE, Ariz. -- Justin Pugh sat in his Range Rover in the garage of his Jersey City apartment building on Oct. 13, 2014 and cried.

The night before, as a second-year right tackle for the New York Giants, Pugh had perhaps the worst game of his career. He gave up six sacks -- four by the first play of the second quarter -- and the Giants were blown out in Philadelphia 27-0 on Sunday Night Football. It happened in front of family and friends who had made the 30-mile drive from Pugh's hometown of Holland, Pennsylvania.
