Infuriating that this was a possibility and they ignored it

WTF?

I know you can’t force a player to have surgery, but how in the world do you not have this done at the latest, a month ago.

Just seems stupid.

WTF?

I am so confused, 4 weeks for a thumb, on a guard? What happened to putting that shit in padding and playing with the thumb immobilized? Like I tho8ght that was standard shit for an Olineman. Especially a guard.

He “tried to work through it”.

This is incompetence until I hear a valid reason.

Now just imagine if Guyton craps out the first few games...

A guard should be able to play.

Case in point, Conrad Dobler. I hated him but respected his style.



One thing is that Smith does kinda of hold a lot too though.

No better (or worse).

Bass goes down, we lose the LG and backup C.

Might teach him not to hold. I remember breaking my thumb in highschool and playing with a cast. They just padded over the cast. Like obviously it must be more serious than a broken thumb but shit.

I guess I will be revising my season prediction.

 

[Cowboysrock55]

Then your medical staff is shit. Tyle could have sat out camp and it would have made no difference for his ability.

Yeah that six week projection probably legit means six weeks.

Obviously some sort of ligament damage I'd assume. Still so fucking weird for an Olineman.
