a few weeks before euro 2016 starts, team England lost its goalkeeper. Jack Butland fans will probably be disappointed as their idol will most likely miss the entire season as he injured his ankle last Saturday. The injury happened moments before conceding to Germany's opener in Berlin. What a way to get injured. Just when the season is about to start.

Jack Butland is enormously overrated in my opinion. Feast or famine goalkeeper who can let you down at any moment. No matter who England put in goal, their success will be entirely dependent upon how their attack operates. While the results weren't quite there against Holland, two up top in a diamond is probably their most lethal formation.

Any of your Charlotte fellas up for an impromptu huddle beer summit and catch a big match?

I wanted to do something for the England Russia match but i think that's Father's day wkd.

I'm keen on a meetup for any match really. I love Euros.

    • He is also a player that has that "lock room cancer" tag.  We don't see much of the full picture, but I try to stay far away from that type of player. He is historically not good at losing, and we tend to do that a good bit. Not a good fit in my opinion.  I respect the skill, though.
    • I honestly can't think of a teams first line basically telling the coach to fug off like last night's line of Aho, Jarvis and Svechnikov did to Rod. 
    • Do you even know what the term "below average" means? Because I'm genuinely not sure if you do. There are 32 QB's in the league, which means to be playing "above average" he'd have to be the 15th best QB at the league, and even then, that's in essence the "average NFL QB" still. Even going by these rankings, which have him 20th, that by itself is the definition of "below average", and that's before you consider there are multiple QB's ranked below him in this list that I'd 100% trade him for in a heartbeat. Again, no matter what you think the eye test tells you, he's made 28 starts and has a grand total of FOUR games over 247 yards.  Drake Maye has made 10 starts, all with a significantly worse group of pass catchers than Bryce has had, and he already has 3 games over that number himself. I don't need to see or know anything else beyond that to determine he is a below average QB in this league so far and I don't know how anyone can honestly argue against that.  If he was a Lamar Jackson type putting up 75+ yards rushing on a consistent basis, then you can look at those passing yards differently, but that's not the case here. Could he still improve and get to average or better?  Of course. But you're trying to extrapolate a few throws/drives/moments from a handful of games and trying to say that makes him even an average, if not above average, QB in this league.  Which is just nonsense when the players you're comparing him to have played at that level for full seasons or their entire careers.
