Burris to IR

[ncfan]

 

[Mr. Scot]

You had to figure if you saw it happen.

[PhillyB]

yeah that was always gonna be the result 

[PandaMan]

I’m not a medical professional but it seemed like he broke his rib during the game given how he was gripping his chest/abdomen.  Hope he can recover quickly

[pantherclaw]

Expected.  

Unfortunate. 

[hepcat]

He surprised me this season. Didn't know who he was when they signed him but he played well this season. Hope his backups are able to play well too.

Fug it just sign earl thomas

[Mr. Scot]

Now seeing that Keith Kirkwood is going on IR as well.

He's been decent but I liked how Sam Franklin played last game in his place. I don't think it'll be a huge drop off there. Either way, I hope we get Burris back healthy soon.

If he wasn't a headcase and was in his prime, his skillset is exactly what this D needs. But I wouldn't want him in this locker room right now. It'd be one thing if we were truly one piece away but we're not and the risk isn't worth it. Ravens who should be competing for a championship this year decided to pay him a ton just to get the fug out of their locker room. They've been a very well run organization for a long time for a reason, so if they're doing that you know there's something up with the guy that you don't want.

Nah I agree, would just like to see what a guy like Rhule could do who probably has a unique perspective on coach-player relationships and how to manage a locker room.

This. One of the best safeties I've ever watched in his prime, but the dude seems to have gone legit batshit crazy. I don't want that in the locker room around all of our promising youngsters.

The texans had a near revolt, like team captains came into BoBs office and demanded him not to sign Thomas after the process started. Dude went form sleeping in the locker room and being 100% football, to having too many mid-life crisis. Very sad cause I use to respect his game big-time, but people change....
