  2. Between this and the injury report, it sure seems like they’re trying to quietly shut it down for the season. Maybe they feel like they have seen what they need to see?

  8. Chuba nooooooo. Sad to see but ultimately probably a good call in the “long run” or whatever. Just hope Bryce and company can run an NFL offense without Chuba and all the other pieces on IR/injury report.

  11. I wonder if he was more injured than we thought by that tackle that twisted his knee weeks ago, and he just kept playing through it

  12. Raheem Blackshear season!

    I know folks will still play results on the Brooks pick, but man this is why you need two RBs.

  14. Part of me was really hoping for a 6 win season. I hate to say it but I hope these are legit injuries and not a tank for draft position.

  21. Front office has seen what they needed to see. They know the holes, improvements, etc that’s needed to continue building this team going into the offseason. Draft and free agency will be exciting.

    I think we can be optimistic again with this front office and coaching staff.

  22. If Bryce can still look good with this extremely unsexy unit, then there’s not a doubt in my mind he’s the franchise guy

  24. Season was over anyway. The rest of the season was just bragging rights. Let the man heal for next year

  28. I think it’s a smart precaution to make sure he doesn’t get a unnecessary injury. Go ahead and let the other guys possibly earn a spot for next year.
