I used to really enjoy this board, but the whole Chase-Sewell thing and if your opinion differs, it's open season especially if you're "respected" or whatever else you want to be called. Both sides need to step up and learn to deal with other people's opinions better.
For those of us in the middle, I do have concerns about Burrow. Much more so that the OL isn't significantly better than last year. I do worried about him getting re-injured if our "franchise" LT can't stay on the field yet again, if our starting C isn't ready to go, and if there is another injury along the OL. Our depth is trash. Yes, our starting 5 will be much improved but there's not much behind them to be excited about. Our LB situation isn't a whole lot better. Chase was a great pick and I expect big things. The secondary looks good. They did a lot along the DL. The OL is still a huge question especially when it looks like we have our franchise QB.
I can see Burrow trying to rush back, but he's also intelligent. I don't believe he would risk his career to play an extra couple of games. If he looks good, feels good, and says he's ready to play, you let him play. If he's medically cleared, there's not much else you can do.
Muskie, I'm right in the middle with you. You have your optimist, pessimist and realist. I truly believe we'd sit in the "realist" section.
I have no problem telling you the 3 areas I see going into this season as major issues because they are issues until they're proven not to be an issue.
I've been bitched for having a negative attitude and that I'm not a fan of the team but as I say opinions are like assholes everyone's got one.
If you don't like mine, don't read my post.
