I’m tired and worn down from the action and stress of moving so I’m going to just chill and talk football tonight.
Let’s start with Saquon Barkley. Likely torn ACL and done for the season. Dammed if Madden didn’t call that one too. Here is the thing: this sucks but it gives Jones a chance (again) to step up and be the guy who becomes that big time qb. It also forces the G-men into a position where they know they need to get help at all levels. This is a slow build but we gotta get moving faster. Fans like me want to see an above 500 team. Then current over under for the G-men is two wins.
The Niners saw three starters go down with leg injuries. Two ACL tears and a high ankle sprain. The sprain is the QB and he may come back. The rest is the defense and there is no coming back from losing two starting linemen.
On the fantasy side of things I chose wrong across all three leagues. I lost in two of them. That makes me a combined 1-5 on the season. Yikes. I need to get my mind wrapped around this season because it isn’t going well already.
Some Thoughts:
- First phone blog in a while and man are my fingers fat.
- The youth football continuum is getting more interesting because it feels like there are more teams than originally assumed. They just keep coming out the woodwork at that 11u level. In spite of all that I feel as though we have a team that should be in the championship.
