Russell "Injury Prone" Okung missed 12 out of 48 Regular Season games for Chargers.

1 in each of his first two seasons with them. Missed weeks 1-7 last year, one more in the middle of his return, and then the last two of the season.

And as long as he is not one of the 2-4% of people who develop long term lung damage, he should have recovered much better than Pardis did with half the commitment. 

Worst case he's shot. Best case he's a good stop gap blindside protector.

An older guy missed 25% of his game at probably the most injury prone position in football, many of them being last year (you also fail to leave out he missed the last 2 games last year because of them being 5-9 and not wanting to hurt him any worse)

What is all of this "IF" he can come back from his health issues??? He played the final 6 games of last season. It's understandable that he'd be rusty during those games as he had come back from a major health scare. He'll have an entire off-season to recondition, and training camp with his old line coach to get re-acclimated. Even if he's just alright, he'll be better than what we had last year.

    • 6 pages of tuka and Seltzer arguing is actually 97 pages long
    • 100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.  
    • "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
