Thank you. I was looking at NFL.com when it happened and half the falcons fans were happy it happened. Nice to know you're all not a-holes ;)

I hate fans who are like that. They prefer their team to win when the opposing team has few of their good players hurt? Asshole. :mad:

And thanks for the classy post, Mr. White. Good to know there some fans like you that are not the type to wish a player is hurt so his team can win easier.

I'm not exactly going to be Time Magazine 'Man of the Year', but I just hate to see things like that happen. But you know what, Gross has stayed healthy for a long time, something that is quite hard for lineman to pull off. I would imagine he will recover better than most, because most linemen have had that happen to them at least once in their career. Turner and Smith also got dinged up today. I expect so see Smith back next week because he needed no help at all off the field, but Turner being a RB will probably see at least a week or two off.

Not going to get into the game stuff much cuz it probably belongs in another thread, but let's hope Gross didn't sustain an injury that will have any lingering effects. Whenever you see a guy get carted off, you just feel for the guy, and that could be anything from a high ankle sprain (nastier than you might think) to a broken ankle (ironically heals faster than a high ankle sprain sometimes from what I have heard). Granted ankle injuries aren't nice, but when a guy his size dings up a knee, there's a lot worse things that could come from that. Small consolation I'm sure, but hey at least its not an ACL tear or something. Good luck the rest of the way.

    • There probably isn’t an orthopedic surgery that has had more improvement in technique and outcomes over the last two decades than the acl repair. Because of its importance in pro sports and the sheer number that surgeons do there have been lots of opportunities to practice 1. Better techniques - arthroscopic v open surgery means people heal faster  2. More training - all sports med surgeons have tons of experience doing them 3. better imaging - later generations of mri are more sensitive  4. better therapy - PTs have gotten better at rehabbing them and the theories of rehab have improved a lot. No idea about brooks in particular tho, but I’d describe that overall situation as “not great”
    • If Freeling or either of the Utah OTs dropped to 19 I'd be more than happy honestly. Our OT situation isn't great with an aging Moton at RT and a mess of a situation at LT if Walker goes down at any point in time.  What I'm expecting the Panthers to do is probably draft another weapon like Sadiq or KC Conception. That's been their track record in drafting R1 thus far. None of the defensive talent projected to be around 19 stands out to me. Unless they just want to draft a LB early (Rodriguez,  CJ Allen, Anthony Hill, Jake Gollday).
