Wow, that was a really great piece. I didn't think I'd sit through the whole thing, but it was excellent.

Even smiling for that guy looks like it causes internal pain.

Cautious, yes...but I do think there is a difference between holding guys out of preseason games and someone not practicing at all for a couple of weeks and only working solo on the side apart from everyone else. There's cautious, and then there's...this. I mean, even Poyer was back in team drills. Alright, settle down everyone with the puns.

Shocker.

I see what you did there. 🙃

Of course, just concerned about him missing so much practice time without him seeming to make significant progress in quite some time.

Maybe next to Von Miller, this is maybe the one new guy I've been looking forward to watching the most and seeing what he can do for our defense. Not necessarily because he'll have the largest impact, but just because it seems like his potential is huge and he brings so much excitement and energy to the D-line. His game against Indy was very promising. Nevertheless...he already had a groin injury that kept him out of camp a few days, and now he has what seems like an unspecified calf injury that has kept him out of the last two preseason games, and he's still only working alone on the side per reports. Everybody deals with injuries here and there, but he's now lost a lot of practice time this summer and it's not clear how long he'll continue to be out. Could this be an early achilles problem? Has anyone heard anything about it? I don't recall seeing anything or reading any updates recently. Obviously he's not being put on PUP or IR anything like that, but I feel like he's a huge part of our plans for the D-line this year and it just doesn't seem like a great sign for his availability during a long season...

Could I at least pretend? It makes so much more sense that way.

Pretty sure he was being sarcastic.

Anyone know how good (or perhaps, bad) either is at holding? That’s probably more important to me…

It's debatable. Some feel it's good to do light stretching after the injury (not if it's too painful). Others say to rest it before stretching it out later.

Looks like a hammy to me. Possible he could be out for a couple of weeks, we'll see.

Probably. But also probably more expensive. Interesting dilemma to have, it appears. Bills lucked into a pretty good season to have to find a punter at this late stage.

Wasn't this guy vanquished from the earth using the Wuxi Finger Hold? * skadoosh *

Sure, drop me a DM if you’re interested.

sarcasm, dude.

This thread is already 63 pages long but it mostly just seems like the same 3 pages of posts repeated 21 times.

Talk about rushing to judge. Just my opinion,, but highly doubtful Beane and company didn’t know about this before he was drafted. In our toxic society, why invite that? And if he didn’t know about it, that seems pretty bad, too. From the sound of it, it’s not like this is completely out of the blue.

Either way this is a bad look for Beane and company. That's really disappointing to me.

Beane must be slamming his fist against the wall, knowing he just released Haack and he signed with Indy right away.

It's interesting, because WR has traditionally been one of those positions that takes several years to become really good at. So it's valuable to have a strong vet #1 WR who knows what he's doing, which also helps the younger guys. I don't know what's happened in the last few years, but it seems like there are more and more rookie/young WRs that are really good right out of the gate, like Justin Jefferson. Perhaps we're just seeing more talented and polished WRs coming out of college that has shifted that traditional thinking.

We have a winner!

At the end, Cowherd started talking about how great Wyoming is, to which Josh said something like "Oh, you must be talking about Jackson." They both then talked about how great Jackson is and how awesome it is being so close to the Tetons, all of which is true (despite it being an insanely expensive place).

By the way, they’re both right about Jackson. 🙌
