I've had this swollen spider bite on my leg for about 7 days now, and it is really painful to move my leg at all, sometimes it feels stiff. I really hate going to the ER but should I just wait to go to my Doctor's office Monday?

If it's nonlethal then go to your doctor. ER = major bill. If your insurance covers it go on to the ER.

Spider bites will stay with you a very long time without medical assistance. They will usually get worse over time. I recommend going as soon as you can. If it was deadly poison you would've been very sick within half hour, however don't delay.

I'm not a real Dr. I just play one at home.

Nope, probably happened when I was doing yard work. Cause I woke up with it and initially it didn't hurt. But it's starting to get worse.

The starting to get worse part is alarming! Depending on where you live there are multiple spiders that can cause issues. I take it you are in NC (Greensboro) I added a link for you to check out. Did you notice any tunnels, webs or areas it could have come from?

      Yup. Hopefully  Brandon adds some muscle this off-season but he'll probably be resting his shoulder for a while so I doubt it. Miles should probably be replaced but I don't think we find a better 4th option to be honest. So is it better to add depth along side williams and Coby or try to upgrade the 4/5 . I think adding depth will probably be more beneficial than trying to upgrade starters and bank on Brandon and Kons continuing development. I really don't think they are going to make the playoffs unfortunately. I think the big hole they put themselves in has exhausted them. They've been amazing since January 1 but I think it's come at a cost and their legs are gone.

      Is AJ Dillon just a camp body?

      The issue is the predictability of it all in a Bryce Young led offense. In 4th down attempts the Jets were at 41 and we were at 40. And we were 4th in conversation %. We were 25th in the league in 3rd down conversion because we faced so many 3rd and longs in part due to playcalling on 1st and 2nd down but more largely due to the limitations that cannot be overcome.  And people want us to spend another 1st rounder on WR as if it is going to magically give Bryce physical talent he will never possess. It's a shame we cut off our own nose just to put ourselves in this frustrating predicament.
