This could be a game changer with our offense struggling getting tds , not getting the guaranteed FG might change the way we call stuff in redzone.

There goes the ****ing season right out the gd window

Okay so it’s minor surgery on his non-kicking knee and he’s expected back for the playoffs. That makes me feel better

This is some seriously shitty news. WTF happened? How is a kicker's knee getting injured this bad in practice?

Wonder if it happened on the last kickoff against Denver and that's why it was so wonky.

Isn’t plant knee an issue?

3-4 weeks, can live with that.

Some missed FGs may cost us a game or two, though, in the meantime as close as we play each week.

The injuries this year are ****ing insane. Thank god it's only a 3-4 week injury.

Beats the alternative by a mile, I'll take it.
