I'd be perfectly happy not seeing a picture of that again. Nasty?
yeah, buts its just a fibula fracture. sucks, he's out for the season but he'll fully recover. An ACL would be worse but you'd think Prescott just got told he has 6 weeks to live the way the media is carrying on.

I mean it was still a nasty injury. Add to it that he was franchised for the year and "betting on himself" and his performances were showing he was worth it .

I think people felt bad for the guy to have gone from having a crazy productive season that would land him a huge payday to (at the time) a severe injury that people weren't sure he would come back from.

thats my point - he will come back from this. Ricky Williams did his fibula his rookie year.

Russ - Seriously fuckin impressive and wasnt even one of his better games but he is always there in the big moments and delivers.
Vikings should have put that to bed with a field goal. Stupid decision. That first half however was really impressive from the Vikes.
At 1-4 now going to be tough to salvage much from the season I think.

I wont lie and say I know about NFL tactics but i see why they did what they did but id have gone for the 3 points and at worst go into OT if Russ did go to the other end.

Going for it was the right decision.

Herbert looks a lot better than many thought he would.

Bell made $28m for playing 17 games. Madness.

And the thing is.....I think Bell still has enough talent to produce in the NFL. This isn't AP who is well into the twilight of his career. Bell was just stuck on a horrendous team with a horrible coach. Someone will land a pretty decent back who can give you some solid production for a mild salary.

Can we end the season early?

My team stinks, the management stinks, Dak is injured, the Jones' stinks, the players won't take responsibility, the defence is a fucking joke.

I could go on and on.

5-1 and loving it. Not pretty stuff but getting the wins. Now the tough period begins.

I predicted 6-0 before we played Rams so not far wrong, then predicted 7-2 before next divisional game. We are looking in good shape, just need to go .500 now for rest of season and we should be good for playoffs.

Surprised with the Tua news, Dolphins are playing well and are in the mix for a possible wildcard spot. I know Fitzmagic is due to turn into Fitztragic at any minute, but it’s still a bit surprising they’re making the change at this point
