I don't understand the Bass "injury". "Pelvic soreness" for a 4 plus weeks? I've never heard of that injury, let a alone for a kicker. Someone help me understand what "pelvic soreness" actually is and what needs to heal before he can kick a ball again.

NFL The Patriots earn a wildcard spot and win a playoff game Both the Chargers and Chiefs miss the playoffs Bucky Irving leads the league in rushing Lamar Jackson finishes 5th in MVP voting Joe Burrow retires from football Bills Ray Davis leads the team in rushing yards Dorian Williams makes the pro-bowl Deone Walker is released before the season begins Max Hairston a healthy scratch during the playoffs Dalton Kincaid... still skinny at the end of the season

Even if he's OK, not a good sign for his long term durability... which was a concern for me at the draft.

Mt. Rushmore: Levy, Knox, McDermott, Saban Mt. Rushless: Stephenson, Williams, Jauron, Mularkey

They added a gimpy Bosa, 2 suspended players, and a bunch of rookies. I'm expecting the defense to perform similar to last season, maybe even take a step back against the pass with the loss of Douglas and addition of White/Hairston. Run defense and 3rd down will continue to be an issue until these rookies mature.

I, for one, never liked the pick. Slight build, not physical... and (guilty or not) character concerns stemming from the SA allegations. If this SA issue blows over, can he stay healthy? Color me concerned. Would've preferred a LB, Schwesinger or Campbell, or if CB was a must then perhaps Will Johnson or Amos in the 2nd... but imo LB was as much a need as CB and there were a few good ones on the board at 30. If Milano goes down again and TB misses some time (as he always does) could be tough sledding again for the run defense.

still skinny

The stat that keeps blowing my mind from last season is only 2 lost fumbles, both from Josh. Not a single lost fumble by a RB, WR, TE or P/KR. Remember when James Cook had ball security issues?

I worked at the stadium the 4 years they went to the Super Bowl. Everybody sat in their seats.

When did standing for the entire game become a thing?

doesn't everybody stand now anyways?

My surprise is Hairston struggles in camp and doesn't dress until week 6. He plays 12 snaps before breaking his right collarbone in a collision with a referee. TJ Sanders disappoints, shows up overweight, pulling up lame with a hammy before the first pre-season game, missing significant time.... essentially taking a red-shirt season. Landon Jackson starts over an injured Bosa who violently ruptures both achilles slipping on a rubber mat on his way to the practice field. Ed Oliver and Greg Rousseau make 1st team all-pro. This draft has put them on notice, and they respond with a vengeance.

unprofessional by Beane it's a radio show and you're the GM of one of the most successful franchises in football he doesn't need to defend himself to those clowns

Skattebo, Dolac and Burnip

3rd round? I'll allow it.

Don't like the pick. With the extra picks why not move up a bit for a DT? There were guys there. Sure you need a willing dance partner, but this was a draft conducive for dealing. Whatever. Would've preferred Jihaad Campbell.... versatile highly productive player. In Beane I Trust.

He's under contract, he's not going anywhere.

Chiefs - 42 Bills - 26

Bracket Kelce, rush 3, double spies on Mahomes with a late blitzer/rusher and prevent the big plays. If they do that and Buffalo can score 30+, they'll win.

I fully expect Josh to come our firing the ball Sunday. KC will be preparing all week to stop their rushing attack. Try to catch them in running sets early on, using the pass to setup the running game later on and grind them down.

42 - 17 Ravens
