If Gmen wasn't being sarcastic, then your post would be funny.

We signed Bell to replace Peters, while Bell isn't Peters, I think he'll do just fine, the biggest concern would be for him to stay healthy.
Our Oline was one of the better last year at the end, and I hope Kelce and Watkins both take a step forward and improve their play.

That's terrible. Hope it's not a long term injury.

Wouldn't be surprised if this was near career ending. 30 years old, not sure of recovery time & has a reacurring injury. Can't trust him. He gets shoved on the feild and reinjures himself? Lol, he'll be a quality backup at best.

Yikes. Losing one of the best OT's in the league has to sting a little.

What is there to be sarcastic about? You guys lost a top 5 OT in the NFL, probably for good.

That's the first thing I thought of when I opened this thread. It's almost unheard of.

Standard commenting procedure doesn't make it not true.

If Bell can stay healthy, we'll be fine. It sucks to see this about Peters, but at least it wasn't Vick or McCoy who was lost.

It is a big loss but the "I don't know how they are going to get by" seems like a bit of a stretch to me.
