At least RR is trying to clean up the ‘DH Is trash’ narrative floating about.

“I feel we got to play him a little bit more and I plan to,” Rivera said Monday via the Washington Football Talk Podcast. “Look at what he’s done in terms of his career and look at what he’s done in a short period with us. Snaps per production is way up there.”

Luck of the draw. Did San Fran or some other teams forget how to prevent injuries? Don't think so. I will say that some players are more likely to play when they get an ouchie than others. Actually I have been saying that for years.

I also think it may have a bit to do with the fact we are a younger team. Let's face it, younger guys heal quicker.......as I have learned over the years.

What about not having the ‘injured’ player as a FA who is a steal? Haven’t followed FA history recently but wasn’t that BAs modi’s operandi?

I am buying 20 shares Cali. I am starting to see a method to what is going on. Of course I could be dead wrong but if I am I am not going to leave the forum.

Davis et al, not performing as needed ... enter Holcomb.

Injuries and poor play by Martin. Lets put some of these guys I brought in this past off season in.

Maybe some of it is who they are playing. Maybe they are starting to get a handle on who their best guys are.

Cali, as promised I'm going to offer optimistic points of view as I see them with your assurance that we defend, even when opposed to them, the author's right to post the same. Neither of these will be popular, but truly optimistic from my POV.

1. Dwayne Haskins... is IMO, the long term future of this organization, if handled correctly, he'll give this organization equal to if not better than Theesman, Williams, and Rypien at a play-off, hopefully, SB level, with much more than from those listed in the top 10 all time for this team. It's still not too late, if they tailor the offense to what he actually does best, instead of asking him to do what they want him to do best. Don't limit the offense, just do what every other team has done with QB's since the modern game was re-invented... add more as they go.

2. New Name... This is a long overdue human decency lay-up. Nothing more needs to be said!
