Darnold Fractured Scapula on throwing shoulder

The issue though is did it occur during the previous game. This is bigger than football at this point. If he had a shoulder thing on top of a concussion and they didn’t get him an MRI or even X-ray that’s negligence on the team doctors part.

If they did and didn’t announce it/let him play that’s also negligence up and down the staff, obviously a lot of players play with bangs and bruises going deeper into the season so it’s possible he said he could play and the doctors ok’d him on that fact.

If there was any possibility this happened the week before, why just announce an MRI now? It becomes liability at this point. Yes I agree sometimes hairlines can just be sore and perhaps everyone thought it was just soft tissue damage. But that leads back to why wasn’t he fully evaluated last week and is the medical staff at fault.  

Well, that is also speculation on our part, in fairness. Maybe it really didn't happen against the Falcons. Maybe it did but there wasn't an obvious sign that there was an issue, other than maybe some soreness.

There are just as many valid reasons they wouldn't check him out or that Sam himself may have not really thought it was anything more than soft tissue damage.

I am not even saying they might not have fuged something up but we really don't and won't know the complete situation unless Darnold decides to say something.

Darnold has looked bad but not last game bad. I could tell he wasn't his "usual" self. 

 

I don't know what this franchise is doing anymore. 

Building defense and not STs or Offense.

Maybe next year they'll spend all 1 and half draft picks on offense.

lol this thread. QBs play injured regularly in the NFL. Blaming the coaches for playing an injured QB.. as if this is something that is not regularly done in the NFL.


2018 - Aaron Rodgers Sprained MCL and Fractured Knee

2020 - Tom Brady torn MCL through the entire season

2020- Drew Brees fractured ribs

2021- Wentz two sprained ankle and a fractured foot 

2021 - Tua playing with fractured ribs

2021 - Baker Mayfield shoulder tear

 

This didnt even take more than 60seconds to dig up. I know I'm missing a bunch. This is normal. It's not like the coaching staff is holding a gun to the kid's head and saying "play or die."

If medical professionals are clearing these guys, and they elect to play... why would you blame the coaching staff? They aren't doctors and they damn for sure dont know these guy's bodies. This is what these players get paid millions of dollars to do. Play a violent sport every sunday for us keyboard warriors.

Dude, the posters complaining mostly do not care about the facts.  I've tried to use facts several times to no avail.  Never even acknowledged.

You can either prove me wrong or right. I don't care at all. I am not triggered like you appear to be.

Just stating the obvious.

right...You don't care...which is why you called me and @1usctrojan out for no reason.  Because "you don't care".  🙄

Mind you, I was perfectly fine in participating in this thread about Scapula-gate (hence my earlier post discussing it) before you decided to toss a grenade on everything.    I believe that's what's called "baiting" but whatever...

Baker Mayfield is literally playing with a torn labrum

"But negligent Panthers hurr hurr!!"

What Darnold has is something that he can play through.  Him sucking has nothing to do with the injury.  He just sucks.  

Baker”s  injury is on his non throwing arm and shoulder 

Darnold’s is on his throwing arm 

Bit of difference there

Lol. Yeah and you took the bait. You always do. 

Because you know I am right.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
