How dare you put this evil into the world


I kept having the thought in the shower--and it's a situation where if I don't share it--I have to live with it alone. I need help from others.

I've gotta get this off my chest. I haven't said it because I know many of you will hate to hear it and maybe even hate me for saying it.

It's unlikely Goff is upright for another 18+ games this season. I know he has an incredible O line--but even that O line probably won't show as much health as it had last season. I'm not desiring any ill fate towards Goff--I just think this is a matter of probability.

I'm curious what we have in Hooker--and I even think he will shine to the point we don't even want to put Goff back in. I don't necessarily think he's a "better qb"--I just think he gives a creative coordinator like Ben Johnson a lot more tools to play with. I think he's good enough to make the throws Goff is asked to do--and I think he opens up the run game WAY more than Goff does.

I know...I know.... Jared Goff, Jared Goff, Jared, Goff, Jared Goff.... I know we all want to root for the underdog(many of us have for decades)--he's the perfect story(another man's trash is another man's treasure sort of deal) "You're fucking good enough for Detroit Jared Goff" - DC

All this being said, I hope we find a way to land Spencer Rattler to back Hooker up this year :D


are u serious? Nn spencer rattler lol
/e thank gosh he went to the saints. Just what they need another QB

not only what we need--but also got several steals. The only thing bad about the draft is the division in general just got a lot tougher lol

NFC North is toughest division IMO. Packers and Bears will be solid and Vikings will be really good or really bad.

for sure--we're still favorite to win division but it won't be as easy as it was last year.

I think we opened season as 2:1 faves to win divison. Currently we're favorites but we're not a -110 to win--i think we're like +150.

But yeah--proving our way through this division sets team up for Super Bowl run.
