Re: Michael Thomas Out for Start of Season
Gotta have that garbage time TD in garbage time in game one against the Bucs. Totally worth it.

Re: Michael Thomas Out for Start of Season
I'm having serious concerns about the medical staff handling this issue. We're getting close to the one-year anniversary of this injury. How is a high-ankle sprain, even a bad one, taking on this big of a timetable?!

As posted on the FA thread, I'd go out and get Golden Tate, at least you'd have an offense that can keep you in it... Not afraid to play rookies, and with Adebo replacing Jenkins, you have the same DB group you've had the last two seasons... |
