There is no reason for someone to believe that we won't have one of the top tier offensive lines in the NFL once again ... unless that someone is an eternal pessimist.

BS the line was hot garbage once people started going down. That’s a cold hard fact. Armstead will only play 8 games, Unger is gone. Those two are huge assets. Last year has nothing to do with this year.

Who says Armstead will only play eight games? Since you are in the know, how about sharing the 2019 Kentucky Derby winner with me, huh?

Due to his track record it’s safe and reasonable to assume he probably will miss time.
It’s basic survival to take into account a persons history as you assess them.

By your logic you could have a girlfriend who goes out and cheats regularly but because it’s a new week you decide to give her the benefit of the doubt that it won’t happen again.

Great way to wind up with a sore on your Peter.

Wouldn't know about that. Been married to a wonderful woman for 30 years now. Your analogy is flawed by pessimism.

And it is not "safe and reasonable to assume" (you know what they say about that word) that he will miss eight games as you declared as pretty much a certainty.

Oh, and do those sores hurt? Never had one.

I wouldn’t know. Mine fell off after the no call. Let me go check the freezer and get back to you.
$20 says the max he plays in the regular season is 10 games.

Not taking that bet because you'll be pulling for him to get injured. Hopefully not consciously, but still the added negative vibes will be there. It happened last year with Meredith. I'm all for minimizing the gris gris this season.

Here's to Armstead going ...

19-0 Baby!

Or you just know you are wrong and will lose. If you believe our bet had anything to do with Meridith not working out last year you are delusional

Guilty, as charged...
