    You haven't called nothing yet. We still might be dealing with a fake injury.

    Even if it is a hamstring injury, that doesn't have anything to do with his weight.

    Fake injury lmao.

    And yes, it does have to do with his weight, extra pounds he needed for those twig legs, legs too lean lead to shredded hamstrings.

    Don't be confused with conditioning hamstring injuries like CDavis.

    Nah, the injury he sustained today has nothing to do with his weight.

    I seriously think this was just fake news with a fake injury.

    Mariota continues to play if we were in this game.

    How many games is "many"?
    Just want to make sure you called this correctly. So far the possibility of a hamstring injury is there, but you said he'll miss many games due to it.

    If Mariota literally let the coaching staff fake an injury for him I lost even more respect for him than not trying to play through a hammy to win the game. Also if the coach staff did this they need to all be fired by Monday morning.

    It's probably legit but maybe not enough that he wouldn't have gone back in if the game was competitive.

    I'm alright not risking further injury when the defense wasn't going to stop anyone anyway.

    The fact that Mariota was alright with it is troubling as ****

    Last week I dubbed him gangsta ass Mariota

    I fully take it back

    You're right, when the leader of your team quits, it's only natural for everyone else to follow suit.
