Haven't seen this game yet. Been at a conference all weekend.

WTF happened!?

Hard to say, nerd... couldn't tell from the TV, but he ended up playing 40 some snaps on a messed up knee. He wasn't as good as he was in the 1st series later on... I guess that's why.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Maybe the question(s) that should be asked are: if he could play 40 or so snaps on the bad knee - apparently without the coaches or training staff even noticing a drop off in quality, why can't he continue to play on it? Is it something that would likely get worse? If so, it's a damn shame it "got worse" during those 40 or so snaps. If not, then why not let the guy play? People speculate about players' "toughness" or not. I would suggest that most of the time, it is out of their hands - the damn doctors are the ones to blame for the perceived lack of toughness in today's players.

That IS the type of injury I look at as pertaining to nutrition. There was no tramatic event, the joint just popped in the normal course of athletic activity!? So much so that he continued playing on it for another two quarters? I mean 40 plays is quite a bit is it not?

Un FUCKING believable.

He thought he could handle the pain and kept playing because that's what a lot of players do...

Just seems odd to me. AND, it's a pattern. Iirc, he stated it didn't really start to hurt until after the game, correct?

Anyway I haven't even seen the game yet.
