Initial Diagnosis on Jordy Nelson is Torn ACL

Recommended Posts

Dammit! I seriously hope not. I like Nelson a lot. The NFL is going to be so watered down from so many season ending injuries to stars.

I still think the reason for so many injuries is the new stupid practice rules. Teams can't practice how they want to anymore, causing half ass practices. Then when they play a legit game, they aren't ready and more injuries occur.

Anyway, I wish Jordy a speedy and healthy recovery.

I was going to make a similar thread to reassure Huddlers that we aren't the only ones suffering injuries...  In this one game, Nelson tore his ACL, and the Steelers lost Pounced and Tuitt.  Not sure how serious those Steelers injuries are, but if I'm not mistaken, both were eventually carted off.

Damn... that is awful... didn't a Packers fan just post his condolences on KB too??

And I do not mean that in any kind of snarky manner- just irony.  The number of non-contact injuries is unreal.  It didn't look that bad to me on first glance, especially compared to KB's which looked like a torn ligament from the start.

On a Panthers note, though, it just shows that the Panthers aren't the only team that will suffer a devastating loss.  Nelson was their unquestioned #1 WR just like KB.

The truth is the NFL is an apathetic place to injuries.  Still got to play games.

The injuries around the league this year seems way higher and more hurtful than ever. What the fug is going on!

There's a new version of Gatorade that makes you weak in the knees.

Wow! Everyone is getting injured. This is crazy.

In order to even things up, every team on our schedule needs to have a star player out of action, at least for our game.

In all seriousness though, I hate to see any player get a season ending injury. Most NFL careers are short enough as it is.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
