    Yeah you almost want to say “sit CMC for the snow bowl, it’s not worth it” but then you look at the rest of the lineup and how the season’s going.

    Sometimes I think in the NFL teams will just sacrifice players’ bodies to try to get wins that probably aren’t going to make a difference anyway.

      Players also do it because they don’t want a replacement outperforming them and costing them a job.

      It’s brutal.

      They are getting paid hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars to do a job they want to do. They all know the risks. The rewards are more important to them.
