Obviously we are all pretty torn up about losing the Super Bowl, so I thought I would make a thread for some positivity. Try to think of a moment that meant a lot to you, a play that represented our season, or a moment when you knew the team was special. Also comment with a player who meant a lot to you this season. Try to keep it positive. 

Although it's not my favorite moment of the year, a moment that stands out in my mind is the first play against the Seahawks in the Divisional Round. The Seahawks knew we were going to try to run the football, and Jonathan Stewart just came out on the first play and got a 50+ yard chunk. Listening to the home crowd errupt around me as we asserted our dominance early. It was great to impose our will against a great defense early, and it was a lot of fun to experience in person.

The player who meant the most to me was, is, and probably always will be Thomas Davis. Watching him lead this defense while playing at such a high level was inspiring, and the fact that he even played in the Super Bowl is amazing under those circumstances. Pair that with the fact that he is an incredible role model. You can't ask for a better guy than that on your roster.

Getting to experience the NFC Championship victory at home was the best sporting event I've ever been to. The electricity throughout the stadium, the streets (walking out and down Morehead Street), and the fan base, in general, was the greatest moment in our 21 year history. Cam, Luke, and co. were amazing during this playoff run at home...

Keep Pounding!

I've always said if I loved Thomas Davis anymore we'd be celebrating the recent Supreme Court decision on marriage. KK had an amazing year. You can tell out front four is clicking by how our linebackers were able to roam. And last night Ealy elevated his game so much last night he's going to demand extra attention next season

      Wish they started at 5:30 or 6 at the latest so I can watch it. I have to be in bed by start time.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.
