    Stats, STATS

    Players want their numbers, but there's good reason to DNP.

    Martin's durability can't be trusted. He was already suspect entering the league. Now two season-enders in two seasons.

    MORE work for o-line reconstruction and LESS protection for Watson.

    Good point. I know Clowney wants his Sack Numbers up and Hopkins loves to keep getting records / highest receiver tds / yards etc.

    Getting rolled up isn’t like a fluke non contact hamstring. But he is at less than 50% games played since being drafted if he’s done now.

    Good grief, it wouldn't bother me if we focused on the offensive line and the offensive line ONLY this offseason.

    They should mix in a DB or 2. But yeah oline will definitely need an overhaul.

    Why are they being so mysterious about Martin's last injury? Surely they know details now.

    I said if before the season started, they should have left Mancz at center and let Martin take one of the guard spots. That would have meant less of Allen or Sua Filo. And Mancz already proved to be a competent center.

    Nick Martin said he's attacking rehab from his second ankle surgery in two years expects to make a full recovery

    try him out at guard different torque on those ankles let mancz have the center spot. Desperate times call for dire situations.
