Man, I can say, having broken my knee and not being able to walk for 13 weeks, having something you take for granted taken away gives you new appreciation for it. I can’t imagine not being able to chew or talk as you normally would.

Officiating has be really bad lately. It’s not even just this season. It’s never been good, but it seems to be getting worse. Rather than trying to solve the problem, however, the NFL apparently wants to put it’s head in the sand and fine anyone who doesn’t keep quiet about it.

Josh Reynolds steps into Rams lineup again, in place of Brandin Cooks | Los Angeles Times

Josh Reynolds has been and will continue to be a great depth receiver. Beyond that, he’s shown that he is more than capable of hanging with the starters. I’m not worried about this position in the least.

Eric Weddle doesn’t want 18-game season: ‘Should never even be a question’ | Rams Wire

Fans want more Football. I get it. Player’s don’t. I get that too. It’s a physically demanding sport with a high risk of injury. Adding more regular season games would make it more so.
