Hall of Fame game to start the preseason.

Chargers beat the Lions 34-7 with rookies and list hopefuls galore on both sides

Can’t wait for this season! Go Chargers!

And Lance at QB…

Hopefully he only sees game time in the pre-season and late in games when we’re blowing teams away and they rest Herbert. I also think it’s likely that Heineke will be QB2 in front of Lance.

Going to Chargers v Colts in October, will be my first NFL game, can’t wait!

wtf Micah Parsons?

Anyone interested in NFL fantasy? Thinking of starting another league. The league in question would be pretty involved, it would be an IDP league so individual defensive players, and it would be a dynasty.

Depending on numbers it might get off the ground, just want to make sure I have a good group of GMs that will stay involved.

Cowboys are the gift that keeps giving

Jones could have paid Micah a year ago and would have saved $5m+ per year. Just like every other high profile contract negotiation, he caves. It’s all a publicity stunt for him.

Hey Fazza, I’ll bump you in another thread.

I’ll pass on the fantasy league. It can be great fun, but I’m never able to consistently pay enough attention to it.

I play on Sleeper app. Even our most inattentive in my home league checks it Thursday to set a team, checks again for 30 seconds on a Sunday before games and he’s done. That app particularly makes it super easy, especially for the lazy.

Keenan Allen back at the Chargers on a 1-year deal. Good to have some veteran experience in the WR room after Mike Williams’ sudden retirement. Hopefully he takes Ladd McConkey under his wing.

What’s the vibe for Bengals this year? Watched mixed takes but think they’re healthier than I care to remeber

Fit Burrow = Contender

Injured Burrow = No chance

I mean, a healthy QB1 is critical to just about every team, but Burrow is one of those guys who can cover some pretty big deficiencies in the rest of the list.

I think their defence is still going to be pretty junk.

Burrow near perfect in the preseason game against the Eagles. 9/10, 2 TDs.

I was surprised they named him to play at all. Normally the first couple of games go to the depth QBs to get reps and then QB1 gets game time in the last game. I haven’t seen any of the game, but have they mentioned if he’s only playing limited minutes? Perhaps they’re going with a set number of snaps in each game as a lead in to the season? Still risky to put your most valuable asset on the field, behind 2nd and 3rd string O-Line options in the pre-season. Can you imagine the outcry if he get poleaxed because some fringe tackle lets a rusher straight through?

Meanwhile, at the Chargers, LT Rashawn Slater tore his patellar tendon at training and is now out for the season. Just days after signing a 4-year, $114M contract extension. Fark.

Colt’s Richardson injured his hand and had to exit their game.

That’ll happen when a pass rusher gets an unimpeded 10m run-up to flatten a QB.

Also, their next best option in the QB1 battle is Daniel Jones. Blurgh…
