The Hoecht weight debate is ignoring all team-related nuggets (Chris Brown and Sal Cappaccio and the gang) saying ~260 lbs? He could be a little heavier after his offseason strength training regimen...ahem...but he's nowhere near 280 to my amateur eye. 

Its fun because nobody knows or will know lol front office proli told the PR team to check Wikipedia and just throw those stats up 🤣😭🤣

I'm probably in the minority here, but when we lose a player for the season (likely, in this case), it saps all of the joy from a big win.

Oliver was playing his best ball this season. Best I've ever seen him play. This just sucks and takes almost all of the excitement out of a 40-9 win for me.

 

Yeah, yeah I'm the Debbie Downer. It is what it is.

 

If KC has a similar injury to Mahomes, Chris Jones, McDuffie or Kelce, I will feel 100x better actually, but when does that ever happen?

 

Imagine being a Niners fan after losing Nick Bosa and Fred Warner.

Can you decipher this for the general public?

Headline I just saw:

 

Buffalo’s injury situation has been among the worst in the league

 

And the article was about the Sabres

 

Must be something in the water!

[SCBills]

Seems like the Bills, Niners, Lions and Ravens have been contending teams just decimated by injuries year to year.

 

Which is a big reason why the Chiefs and Eagles are the dominant playoff teams of late.

Man the Bills just can't catch a break but with that being said someone else needs to step up and fill that void !!

I would love to see a trade for Harrison Phillips competent snap eater at DT could he had for cheap most likely. WR remains the top trade priority but I would say if they can get a competent vet body at DT They should get it

Yep - the reunion. I have also heard Dexter Lawrence from the Giants who are now basically in rebuild mode.

Oh dear sweet baby Jesus please let a Lawrence trade happen. Schoen owes Beane a solid!

Schoen's landing spot post Giants might depend on it. 😁

How is that a need? Jones and Ogunjobi can do that already, and Sanders will be back. Walker, Hoecht, Phillips and Logue will fill in Oliver's job.

Not sure what the big deal is, Richard Kiel played just fine with only one arm in the original The Longest Yard...

This is also why the Ravens looked as good as ever last season. It was the one season in which they weren’t dealing with injuries. Same thing with the season SF made the Super Bowl a couple years ago; relatively low on injuries. 
 

In contrast, the Chiefs are somehow always healthy where it matters most by the time the playoffs start each year, so every year they have the benefit of the Niners a couple years ago and the Ravens last season.  Not to mention, usually a first round bye. 

 

For those that claim “KC gets injuries too!” When was the last time you saw Mahomes, Kelce, Chris Jones or McDuffie miss a playoff game? On McDuffie, MAYBE in his rookie year? Other than that, the answer is never.

 

So yeah, Chiefs have injuries here and there, but it’s never the guys they can’t afford to lose.

I don't see Lawrence winding up here but it sure is nice to dream.  Would be the modern era version of Pat Williams and Sam Adams

Jordan Phillips and Logic are marginal talents and Jones and Ogunjobi are decent vets but both are older and have injury histories (Jones is currently hurt) Walkers a big guy with back issues. Sanders might come back but wasn’t exactly lighting it up when he was playing. Hoecht is more of a DE who flexes inside on a few snaps not a guy that’s gonna eat many snaps there

 

Seems like if they could get a cheap competent vet to eat snaps at DT that might help keep the older players healthy and not force them to rush back Sanders. 
 

WR is the much more pressing need but if they could trade a 5th for a 6th and a Harrison Phillips type DT I would do it
