The Stout, the Defense, and the Offence

Well if it's affecting his play that much then he should sit until he feels he can play with more confidence. Wouldn't you agree?
I don’t disagree but like allblack said, then he’s a quitter and he’s soft and he’s selfish
 
I commend Lamar a ton of playing through his injuries and not making them the focus. That is a very mature and leader like thing for him to do. He is being careful on his body and hopefully saving some of it.

If things go our way for a bit and we take care of business, we can have a fake bye week 18 potentially locked in as the 4. I'm really worried about this next stretch, the short week and Pittsburgh
 
Just get through Cincy. Win that game, don't get injured and rest for the mini bye, which looks massive for the rest of the season.
It's not just Lamar that's banged up. Bate is injured, Likely is clearly injured as well.

Who cares what people think? At this point we need to field the players that give us the best chance to win. The bad start to the season has put that “must win” pressure on pretty much all of our games.

Hopefully this is just goes away by Thursday and Lamar plays with some confidence moving forward. It’s not about being able to run as usual. He doesn’t need to be Superman or perfect, just make good decisions, make the throws that are there. We have an extended break after that before what amounts to an in season playoff game, best case he will be near 100%, good to go by then.

They will lose the first game they play in the playoffs. You heard it here first
They will win against any team that isnt the Ravens, and possibly the Chiefs because they are weird in the playoffs.. you heard it here first. They will get the 1 seed, host either Chargers or Jaguars and then beat them.
 
I luv what Alohi has brought to the D, smart player and his presence seems to have settled a lot of communication issues. His open field, one on one tackling though…. Uggghhhh.

Can't wait to play them this year.

I think the Ravens can beat them but it is a weird matchup. I think the Ravens beat them in the playoffs so I certainly think they can beat them in the regular season.

I just see the most likely playoff seeding and it basically gives the Pats a pretty easy path to conference championship game. Pats as 1 seed, then Broncos/Colts as 2/3 seed (whichever order does not really matter) with Ravens as the 4 seed. Then you have Bills, Chargers, Jags, Texans, Steelers, and Chiefs fighting for 3 wild card spots.

Looking at schedule I think Bills have an inside track on 5 seed which means round 1 is Bills vs Ravens. Looking at the 6 wild card teams and other 2 division winners I don't expect Colts/Broncos to both win on wild card weekend and that means Pats get one of those wild card teams and that is a pretty easy path to AFC Championship game.

Basically the AFC is a bit weak this year with the usual contenders not looking as good as in the past. That opens things up to a team that looks like they have a top 5 QB (can the AFC stop getting all the good QBs) to make a deep playoff run.
