or the same afternoon. The economics of Home Depot doing free same day delivery for like $5-10 items really gets me.

Some guys refuse on principle or end up humbled on the market but he likely gets decent coin

yea I ride the fence on this… obviously a fan and often advocate for preserving the game… but also the reality is it’s quite rough on the body and we normalize some extreme things to protect the game. especially in recent years I’ve fallen under them being incredibly well paid even at minimums and grown men can make grown decisions…. But some of these are certainly grown up choices they have to make in risking health for money.

neither would make this 53 but ignoring player limits - von

well if it was you… It seems a lil more than just a sore knee- I literally couldn’t walk. After a game on Sunday, I wouldn’t be able to walk on my own, under my own power, until Wednesday, Thursday. So I was only able to play under the pain meds. I couldn’t put any pressure on my knee, so it was like, I can’t keep doing that to myself.”

20 years of dedication. It’s hard to just turn it off. I’m glad he’s had the ability to slowly ween from it.

We blame the media but some of the problem is our own reading, right?

really makes you think it’s a passing league and not a running one, eh?

oh I wont vilify him for it. I just also wont go all the way to the wall either. he signed a deal with rewards and consequences. If he’s ok taking the consequences, so be it. As a fan in this window, I’d be bummed if we get less than the best though

3 of the 4 lowest in the league in separation

because he signed those terms

I would be shocked if he shows up this week. until camp it’s all just noise.

I’ve followed the team for decades. I have even started enjoying them again recently! Considering becoming a fan.

A high volume running back - it’s like they are welcoming the curse

I think he’s been a fine enough nfl tight end and may get to the next level. It’s hardly vilifying him to say he belongs as a starter in the league but he hasn’t separated him from the pack in the second tier of tight ends and that hurt us last year. Hopefully it doesn’t repeat.

oh he’s definitely shown the flashes and we have plenty of time with him in the building the problem is each year we burn waiting just hurts the odds for the overall team. whether we like to say it…. Him not being the dude last year could quite literally be a missed Super Bowl for the team. hopefully he comes back as a reason we do make it.

ultimately, it’s a matter of 10 being ceiling vs floor. if he’s a guy that kicks around as average to slightly above - that’s not a particularly great spot to invest heavily if he’s an elite TE that even when beat up is in the top third/quarter of the league - whole different story there’s a real turn at say TE8-10ish where you tip from difference makers to the next 20 being practically interchangeable

yea do we not remember the 2 girls in 1 hotel or did we think the Vikings stuff was out of left field jokes?

the half life of cocaine is like 5 minutes for an athlete - so he may still think he’s very safe to have offseason fun

is there a reason we think diggs would be strict about party drugs other than suspension concerns?

yes, that’s why they are so successful

hitting on at least one of your two top picks at pass catcher is quite possibly the gap between championship and just very good team

Extremely limited options and a team with a good reputation?

Ultimately, if we stay healthy and get top tier bosa… it’s possible. worried we see some of last years luck regress down to average and we just get pretty good bosa and the net isn’t a big step forward.

There’s a big gap between it being insurmountable and simply less than ideal
