More good news from an on-the-field standpoint, but this team has squandered those perceived advantages time and time again anyway:
- They faced the Saints without Drew Brees - a huge advantage - and lost
- They faced the Jets with Sam Darnold, a young quarterback anyway, returning from a layoff - and lost
- They faced the Vikings without their top receiver Adam Thielen - and lost
- Now they face Detroit without their starting quarterback?
It
should be a distinct advantage, but if we've learned anything, it's that this team knows how to squander opportunity.
