News: Joe Burrow had a grimace of pain for every step leaving the field.

I would've personally been trying to get Dalton in and seeing if a late Rd pick could've freed him up. But I suppose Wentz might have been a realistic answer but not sure if money situation would have worked out. As far as now? I'm not sure there is a guy you could pull in I suppose Wentz is still available but not sure that route would be worth it at this point. 

I'm just frustrated because as fans we are all left in the dark. Outside speculation was Burrow would miss the 1st month of the season but everything from the team said he would be ready week 1. Now here we are 3 weeks in and he obviously wasn't ready and may be missing even more time. Didn't Hurst strain his calf last year? I didn't think he missed much time.

Well like I said, it sucked when Burrow got hurt in his rookie year but we stunk our way into Chase who played a major role in our instant turnaround.  Our FO and our HC aren't going anywhere, so I can see why they got pretty lax when it comes to making sure their QB who got carted off the field before the season has anyone of note behind him.

Who knows, instead of giving #1 money to Tee next year maybe we Browning our way to drafting his replacement and end up all the better for it.  Or maybe we still salvage this season...all I'm saying is that even if this season is a total wash and it was completely botched by the FO and ZT, nothing much is going to come of it.  Heads are not going to roll.


Oh and maybe Burrow is the Bledsoe to Browning's Brady...I mean, it's possible, right? EDIT - Wait...he's already 27?
