Me too. Saw Linebacker almost right away. Verbiage was the only thing I saw before that. Still took me a few minutes to finish it with Ravaged.

LINEBACKER / RAVAGED
*BACKLINER-RAVAGED
*BACKLINER good in Merriam-Webster
*BACKLINER-REGRAVED
*BACKLINER good in Merriam-Webster
I was surprised to find that REGRAVED isn’t on the Scrabble list. Not quite as weird as CRAMPY not being on the LB list.
Pretty quick today.
Are the folks who already chimed in waiting up til 3am to jump on the day’s puzzle? Only reason I see it this time of day is because I’m in Europe.
There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your geography. (Couldn’t resist).

LINEBACKER — RAVAGED
Got BACK, BACKER, LINEBACKER, but then went down the VERB path with VERB, REVERB, ADVERB, VERBENA (LB doesn’t like VERBICIDE), before going back to LINEBACKER and RAVAGE/RAVAGED. Not many suffixes today.

OA pretty quick.
Found RAVAGED but not LINEBACKER! Not a football fan I guess 🙁
Found verbiage…Bracken ……..Why won’t LB accept REBANDAGED?
Settled on 3 today; CRACKLIER REVEREND DEBAG
