PFT reporting that he will be out 8 weeks with his foot injury. Will it ever end??

I don't know if its concerning how many of Ballard's picks get injured, but so far:
Hooker, Lewis, Turay, Leonard, Mack, Walker, Fountain
edit: Cain, not Fountain

Cain

I don't expect much from him, but damn that sucks.

Fuck that guy

What guy??

Really? Things happen. By the way some of those guys should be ready for the season.

Is panic common around here?

Why would you want to know what guy he want's to fuck? What wrong with this place?????

Says the guy predicting one win? You obviously panicked...

No, good judgement on my part. If I pick 12 wins and they don't make the playoffs its my fault. I pick one game, they have no where to go but UP

You have not spent much time on Fan forums have you?

Incredibly common.

What panic? I merely said I don’t know if it’s concerning not ‘holy shit Ballard drafts undersized injury prone busts, 0-16, we are wasting Luck!!!’

Real panic is

Hypothetically, how would a GM go about preventing his draft picks from getting injured? Seems rather common throughout the league IMO

Easy: have more good draft picks. No one cares if a rotational interior DL is injured if the rest of your DL is Freeney, Mathis etc.

Yeah, I don't think that's actually a thing.

My take is that draft picks are luck of the draw and GMs get lucky and look fantastic for a few years bc they happen to hit on a few great players in that span ...look again five years later, and they're unnoticeable ...or out of a job.

Is any team systematically "hav[ing] good draft picks"? I recall the Pats missing out on tons of picks; Brady & Belichick have covered a multitude of sins. What happened to Seattle's D? Did they all of a sudden forget how to "have good draft picks"?

I'm leaning toward thinking the coach is the real difference-maker here who can make or break careers. A Big F-U to Pagano merits mention here because of a wasted season.

Anxious to see what Reich does.

We were newbs once upon a time … :cool:

I will endevour to harden my heart and steel my resolve to root like hell and show not panic!

How's that?

Do whatever you want, play with your root for all I care.
Butter was a newb when I was, wasn't really talking or commenting about you to begin with.
Personally I am not near as optimistic as some of these guys. I said 7 and 9 and that was a reach. :cool:
