Been hearing of several starters around the league sitting. I hear the Jags, Fournette has a flu bug. I bet if it was the 1st round of the PLayoffs, we'd hear how tough he is playing through such an illness. Flu??? COUGHBSCOUGH!! Walter Payton's best game as a Pro was in 1977, in freezing weather, vs a VERY tough Vikes defense......WITH a temp of 102!
This goes hand in hand with the post the other day about the guts and HEART of today's players vs the 1970s. There was a HELLUVA lot more heart n soul in the 70s for a HELLUVA lot less pay.
I might be a little more ok with it when I see the NFL charging fans at a "NFL sick day" rate!
