Absolute fact, Oak. There's nothing any of us can do to make a difference. At least as far as team success is concerned. I just choose to make the best of it and share as much information that I can with others that do not have the time or resources to search for it themselves.

On to the Vikings and hopefully a 17 game win streak!

Doing what? Being too hopeful?

Re: Do you rest Winston?

Just for consistency with other QBs performing similarly:

Should the Colts rest Matt Ryan in favor of Nick Foles?

Should the Broncos rest Russell Wilson in favor of Brett Rypien? I mean at this point, let Brett cook!

You debate yourself into a corner and when someone calls you out your response is something like

"oh, i choose to not to let things bother me..."
"i can't control so it doesn't matter..."
"the people 'in the know' are the real experts..."


It's frustrating and quite frankly juvenile.

If you just once in a while admitted others here may have a better perspective than you on an issue, you'd piss a lot less people off. Or even better - NOT chase them away from the message board altogether.

Then again, you may not choose to let that bother you.

Well, it seems that as of this morning there may be a new Sheriff in Town! Stay tuned for that injury report!

I for one, never bought in to that narrative "4 back fractures, can't get any worse by playing through it" bull jive. Especially when 290+ lineman are running at you on EVERY DOWN with the intent to take away your soul.

Jameis needs to sit & get himself healthy long term.

The man is banged up.

Update added to the above article ...

"Update: Dennis Allen said after practice that Jameis Winston will return to practice on Thursday, and that he expects Winston to start Week 4’s game with the Vikings."

Not saying that's right or wrong, just sharing what the updated article shared.

It sounds to me that they have more concern with Dalton as the backup than Winston at less than 100% as the starter. Perhaps they were hoping for the Bengals Dalton when they signed him and are now discovering they have the Bears version instead.

Could they have found a goofier picture?
