If only Cam could sit one out too...

I have a weird feeling he won't play Monday because of this "shoulder injury."

Regarding Luke, if this doesn't confirm that the team is tanking, I don't know what else you need. With this news, I think it's time for us as fans to hope for a high draft pick and to beat the Falcons. Because we can't win the South I gotta pull for the Bucs over them, so completely fine with spanking the Falcons and getting beat by the Skins and Bucs and keeping our top 7 pick.

Not sure how you connected those dots.

 

Maybe the team thinks that because we HAVE won games with Klein as Luke's replacement before. That we should be able to do so again. Protect Luke's long term health, and still win with Klein. Sounds reasonable to me.

 

Rivera has stated that we plan on playing to win. Are you trying to say he is lying to us? Coaches are not allowed to lie to fans are they? There is a rule or something against that. Cuz if there ain't, there should be.

 

But cereally folks. Part of me is relieved Luke is done for the year. Let the kid rest up, and heal. But part of me is kinda sad. I love watching the kid play.

 

Oh, and I am not down with that lose for a draft pick thingy. IMO, there is not that big of a difference between 7, if we continue to lose. Or 10ish, if we win a few. So I am all in on the wins baby.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
