The Bucks lost a lot when Mike Evans who caught a 25 yard touchdown, his 100th touchdown, I believe in the NFL.

Uh, he joins an elite class of players.

Unfortunately, he also re aggravated the hamstring injury that he has been dealing with.

Um, he was dealing with coming into this week.

He certainly again, I looked like he was that aggravated afterwards.

So brutal, they lose him and then the big loss here, everyone's reporting that it's potentially a dislocated ankle which would likely end Chris Godwin's season.

It has been a rough year for wide, like some of the best wide receiver picks you could make this year and this stuff like fantasy, who cares?

But it's been a rough year for some of these great wide receiver picks, but the Godman thing in, in and specifically does.

Absolutely.

I mean, just rips me out man.

This guy is a great player, great person.

Uh and yeah, one of my, again, another one of my favorite receivers in the league for a long time going forward.

I mean, the Bucks will have to rely if Mike Emmons misses multiple weeks here.

Sterling Shepard, Jalen mcmillan has eight targets in this one.

Shepherd caught a two point conversion.

I mean, I I love Sterling Shepard but Sterling Shepard can't be our best wide receiver and he might be the best wide receiver on the Bucks and he has a long injury history.

So, uh, a guy like Jalen mcmillan will be interesting to monitor, you know, Trey Palmer is another player that gave him some snaps last year.

But man, I mean, this Bucks offense goes from Baker Mayfield, potentially like leading the NFL in touchdown passes by the end of the year throwing like 40 plus over the course of the season to now being a pretty troubling unit.

Um, that the best thing that the Bucks did not just on offense, but period, the best thing the Bucks did was Baker Mayfield confidently running a well designed offense and getting the ball to two great wide receivers.

You felt the air leave the passing offense with Mike Evans early in the game and then you just felt honestly felt the life of the entire unit leave when Chris Godwin, uh, exited with his devastating knee injury just really again, super torn up about that.
