maybe DQ doesn't make it through the season lol

It wouldn’t surprise me. Subject to change but pretty sure JDs first season was a fluke

I feel like we may need to start saying that about our kicker... lol C'mon EDC don't be stubborn. Bring in the competition! Literally the only major concern...

Not sure there is anyone available who would be any better. Bring Tucker back?

Matt Prader? Yes he's 42, but he was reliable last season and as a one-season stop gap might not be a bad choice.

Good Lord the Commanders look sooo bad. DQ seems to never have them prepared. Sucks to see the team you grew up with look like this.

Can the Orioles sweep the A’s today? This is the period we have to take advantage of. We are 1GB of the Wild Card and we have this game today, and 3 vs Col. You sweep at least one and win the series in another and you’re over .500 staring at the final WC spot before a pivotal 7 game stretch incoming at home. Time will tell, but I’m keeping expectations low. 
 

As for the Ravens, I was at the game and truly enjoyed what I saw. This defensive scheme is looks pretty sharp, but Minter said this is actually relatively vanilla. The staff has been calling specific plays for specific players to see who they fare so they can analyze further to see who they want to keep. The more exotic play scripts are under wraps for now. Offense has some solid depth pieces, so it’ll likely come down to health and Oline play this season. Kicker concerns me, but that’s something that can be replaced in short order, so I’m not too worried….yet. I hope Loop can write the ship.
