So we may be facing GB without Rodgers or Adam’s and Arizona without DHop or Jones?

I think there's virtually zero chance that Hopkins sits out this season or retires.

Rodgers I could see, though.

Believe it when I see it.

I don't think Jones gets traded either.

I know, just weird that this pst week has rumblings of Browns opponents not being happy.

As opposed to the browns not being happy

[Man Called X]

I want to imagine him playing like Jimmy Butler did on his way out of Minnesota. Come into a practice, dominate the fucking piss out of everyone. Walk the fuck out.

...

Whew boy. This is going to be a situation to watch for sure.

He may be an amazing receiver, but Michael Thomas seems like a real piece of shit otherwise.

Can you imagine the reaction if OBJ had done this? Instead, he's been working his ass off to come back on an accelerated timeline. I saw someone on here advocating for trading OBJ for Thomas and to that I say, no fucking thank you.

Yeah, that was me

Obviously it isn't something you'd even consider doing right now. We'll see how things unfold over the next few months and beyond.

Regardless, Urban Meyer would probably give up a ton for him, so likely a moot point.

I was thinking more for fantasy foootball... I think Rodgers leaving GB is worse for us than him staying there. I also don't think the Saints are a threat.

But yeah, stay stable Browns. Let every other team implode. We're... well run and stable? What world is this???

Agree, having potential AFC playoff games vs. Denver with a massively improved QB, or LV with a moderately improved QB - generally considered the most likely non-GB scenarios - would not have been favorable.

With the "stable Browns" : Can you imagine Kevski allowing the public vaccine infighting that the Bills are having? Or for that matter Harbaugh, Walrus, or even Boy Genius McVay? McDermott, while still a very good coach, is the real loser in all of this.

It looks like Riverboat Ron will put up with Blackjack Del Rio despite their divergence on the vaccine, Rivera's recent cancer survival/immunocompromise, and The Football Team's low vaccine rate. JDR is otherwise well-respected in the league and would easily get a job with a competitor if he were fired.

Don't expect TJ Ward to get a coaching job with The Football Team anytime soon, though...oof.

Ravens QB Jackson tests positive for COVID-19

Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has tested positive for COVID-19 and missed the team's first practice of training camp Wednesday.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is not practicing Wednesday because of issues related to COVID-19, sources told ESPN's Jamison Hensley and Adam Schefter.

The NFL flagged Jackson's latest COVID-19 test and is still trying to process and evaluate the results, sources told Hensley and Schefter. The Ravens also are seeking clarity regarding Jackson's test results and are awaiting answers from the league, according to Hensley and Schefter.

So, second time getting it for him, in 8 months?

"Issues related to" means not one of the asymptomatic cases that usually come for vaccinated breakthroughs, also...nor a false positive that "a flagged test under process/evaluation" often could mean.

The R0 is 6-8 for Delta, and some of the "SEC states" are starting to approach this past winter's peak on cases...not out of the woods at all.

Kelvin Benjamin enters NYG camp still overweight, and not the best attitude about it to Joe Judge. (Yes, I still think the memes are funny, even though he is squandering his probably last NFL chance.)

DeCosby Watson being made to play safety, as he shows up to avoid daily $50k fines.

The handling of Watson just goes to show what a clown show Houston is running. Tell him to stay home and just don’t fine him.
