R.R.:I have been wrong before about injuries

[Jmac]

Rivera sought of hedged his bet when asked about Cams status.The comment in the header was by the coach when talking about Cams injury.Cam did not practice today due to sore ribs and didn't speak to the media.Went directly in for treatment.Not raising alarm bells cause Cam is a tough S.O.B.Just passing along what was being said after practice today by the media.

Gamesmanship

Dear Lovie: Cam's not looking so good.  Really bad, actually.  Bring Chicken Soup.

 

 

Love,

Ron

Smoke...

Nevermind. Come on CAM!

KB also had a wrap on his knee due to swelling after the Pittsburgh game

Yeah, we HOPE it's just smoke.

If this is gamesmanship then RR and Cam have put in some oscar winning performances this pre season. Anyone know the last time we played the game this hard before a key game/opener?

I think I would be ok letting our offensive line break in with DA in that heat. Of course Cam is the better player but I rather have him healthy than out for the entire season. In the vein of that Jon Beason injury several years ago.

Hey, Ron has always been known for being an open book, what better opportunity to cloud the waters could you ask for

[TheMaulClaw]

I actually don't think Cam is 100 percent.  He could be facing a down year compared to his standard.  Worse thing we could do is force the issue with his health.  If he's not 100 percent I'd rather him sit out then be a target.  Besides we have a pretty awesome back up.

would not be worth risking the season, if Cam isn't near 100%, start DA.  he wouldnt lower the winning % that much if Cam is less playing hurt

If this is not "smoke", RR really needs to think long and hard about playing Cam. TB has some studs on that front seven, I don't like this eriee vibe that's starting to envelope this match- up.

DA is pretty good, and I think the team is capable of winning the first game if he has to play.

 

One thing I've noticed though...you know how people often complain of Cam's high throws?  When DA misses, they often are behind the receiver, and that can lead to interceptions. If the QB is going to miss, it's probably better that he misses high where neither the receiver or the defender can make a play on the ball.

 

As for Cam being in pain today and taking it easy, that shouldn't surprise anyone who's ever had injured ribs. Hopefully he can manage the pain on Sundays until he's better, but he's going to pay the price on Mondays.
