Haha my thought as well.

An “ankle sprain” that isn’t long term or serious. Almost like they felt like they needed to take him out to stop the avalanche.

Also I won’t be shocked if this “ankle sprain” begins to linger if Wentz steps in and looks decent-solid

Just saw it’s now a 2-4 week timeline for JJ. Maybe it’s legit, if so. 1 preseason game, tears his meniscus. 2 regular season games and he’s already going to miss a 1/4 of the season.

Hey at least Dallas Turner got a sack last night!!!


Did they really expect to contend with a first year starter at QB?

If the rest of the roster is too old and expensive to go through development of a young QB, maybe they should have kept Darnold no matter what.

They have to choose a lane, develop McCarthy or contend with a vet QB who's shown he can win games.


Ya I don’t think you go from a 14 win team. With guys like Jefferson, Darrisaw, O’Neill, Greenard, and Gink all in their primes. Then add old vets like Allen, Hargrave, Fries and Kelly. To then expect to not contend.

I think the plan pretty obvious. Have a roster that is expensive, then have a young QB on a rookie deal that should hopefully at minimum, be able to game manage. Ala the Niners with Purdy when he was on a rookie deal.

I feel like Hunter is better at CB than WR right now, plus the CB room is a lot thinner

Here's the stats, when TLaw targets Hunter or BTJ, he's 13/33 for 110 yards, 0 TDs, and 3 INTs

Rest of the team he's at 30/40 for 339 yards, 4 TDs, and 0 INTs

It feels like every Hunter target is forced at this point, and BTJ is just in his own head.

Baker is so annoying man, I hate how he plays the QB position, even though he can be effective

PFF agrees at least this week

71.1 grade as a CB

52.0 grade as a WR

Unless it’s absolutely necessary, only elite offenses (such as the Lions) should go for 4th downs. Like now the Texans are still trailing. Points are so precious in this game, Houston can’t afford to leave them

Just like I predicted. Houston should have kicked the field goal, they didn’t have to go for the 2 point conversion and they would’ve been up 9 points.

Just finished the Bucs game. Baker just has that dog in him. Dude is so erratic, but he’s a play maker out there. He’s like a smaller 90 cent version of Favre
