Really makes all the folks sperging out about the Brown injury look dumb as fuck. Look at all the teams getting absolutely decimated by injury and looking like complete shit because they go from lackadaisical practices to games with almost no buffer between. NFLPA was absolutely retarded putting all those restrictions on Training Camps like they did. [Reply]

Football players getting injured playing football (and any kind of football, including the meaningless variety) is literally the argument as to why teams bench their starters in preseason, no? Not seeing your logic here.
If all teams played all their guys in the preseason, they’d simply be losing them more before any regular season games rather than right now. [Reply]

Would be nice to bring Gay home next year as he’s only on a 1 year deal and seems like a player that genuinely enjoyed being here and didn’t want to leave. [Reply]
Because expecting players to go from a handful of training camp practices and two glorified scrimmages where the starters on each side may get maybe 4 or 5 drives in total to full blown games is ridiculous given the marked drop of quality in early season play and the amount of injuries we've seen over the first two weeks.

this is why the Chiefs traded Sneed though. You can’t pay everyone when you draft this well, and there’s no doubt in my mind that McDuffie is getting paid next Spring when he earns his 2nd straight All-Pro.i though they could push paying McDuffie out but I actually think it’s smart to pay him first and then Karlaftis in year 5 so the cap hits can stagger instead of hitting at the same exact time.
That Titans pick is gonna be so valuable. They are 100% picking top 10. I’d say there’s a better than 50/50 chance they pick top 5. It’s for sure gonna be a top 70 draft pick.

Not a good sign when turds like Yoshiivash, Giseki, Chase Brown, and All are running wild.
Giseki has been a decent TE in the league before he came to the Bengals. His problem is just that he can't stay healthy. But yeah, TEs are killing us this year. Bolton has sucked in coverage. Tranquil hasn't been much better. I think we're really missing Willie Gay. [Reply]

I didn't imagine thinking this at all, but I think we miss Gay more than Sneed. Would not hate us bringing him back next year. [Reply]

Yeah this is what I've been saying too. I never thought we would miss Gay more than Sneed, but it sure the hell looks like we do.
-Nobody to cover tight ends
-Gay not there with the closing speed on pass out to the flats
-He was always good for a big momentum-swinging blitz or tackle for loss about once a game too
