Kind of odd how initial reports were all "minor sprain" and "no big deal" and then following day GM and HC come out with the "it's a serious strain and he's out all of preseason and we'll see what later"
Just have to hope he's 100% week 1. As much as I want to see him play all of the regular season it may make sense to hold him out until he's full on 100% so we don't see the DE version of Matt Breida last year.
Looking at our edge rush from last year, the DE version of Matt Breida wouldn't be so bad. Thats like 7 to 8 sacks in 12 games lol.
Lol touche..but I'm hoping we get the full 16 games or as close to it as we can because we'll need Nick to help that D play better.
As do I. Just pointing out how bad the pass rush was. Hobbled Bosa/Ford > Marsh/Thomas at LEO/AA.

Anyone paying attention to the Bucs? They lost basically their whole Dline for the first game, we will be okay.
yeah saw that, Vita Vea looks to be out for week 1 and JPP is out for a while. Lavonte David had some knee scope or something, I'm assuming he plays but who knows with those things. Donovan Smith is dealing with some Achilles' injury as well.
Throw in their secondary is trash as well.
"battle of the broken" week 1 
So we should be able to run and give Jimmy good protection right?
