That's Carl Mauck face (probably exclaiming "Horseshit!") is exactly what I looked like when I saw 12-4 or 11-5 suggested. But I guess I salute the optimism?
Hopkins is on IR, so if you get rid of Carpenter you have no kicker. Also, he has a history of being streaky, so it's very unlikely anyone is going to trade for him. But sure.
This looks like it's from a different game judging from the lack of facial hair.
Also, can someone please get Buddy Ryan and Kevin Gilbride in a closed room together?
Let's see, a first round pick for a little more than a half season. Add to that the player who they would presumably be trading for has not taken a snap through the first 5 games due to a foot injury.
Sure.
I didn't bring it up, I was responding to the OP who keeps incorrectly asserting that an injury has to be "season ending" to IR someone. I was pointing out that this is not true.
