He's down within the first 4 games next season.  Bank on it.

I sure hope not. Good grief it seems like the Panthers have more than paid their fair share to the injury goblin over the years. So many of our elite talents have been detailed in their prime by major injuries. From Cam to Beason to Morgan to Luke. You can fairly include guys like KB who looked to be emerging as an elite WR and guys like Oher who was actually looking like the blindsided protector he was hailed to be. Despite his resurgence much of TD's prime was stolen from us with him fighting back from ACL after ACL. I get that football is a brutal sport, but damn... can't we just have some nice things every now and then without injuries fuging it up?

I am having trouble understanding why this is a thing now.   Pretty much anyone you ask and they would say the meniscus is the part of the knee you would want to injure over the acl or pcl.   I guess his size is slowing the rehab.  fug I dont know but at this point its not good.

Depends heavily on the extent of the damage. Many meniscus tears are simply a cleanup and couple of week recovery process, so the fact that he was out for the entire year and still recovering seemingly points to it being a very serious injury. Perhaps he actually tore it loose from the bone and didn't just damage the tissue itself.

I've no idea if this is what he had done but knee cartilage damage is exactly the scenario where they do microfracture surgery. If that's what he had, again noting that I'm simply talking in hypothetical with no indication that he actually had it, then that could definitely prolong a recovery as well.

Even if it was that serious it still is a head scratcher he is still dealing with it 9 months later.  I am still believing just his enormous size is probably slowing things down.  Tearing up your knee and being 325 pounds has to take time to get right.   I guess we will see what happens in TC but this is starting to feel like there is more to the story or whatever.

 

I had mine shaved a while back and it was basically 100% in roughly a month or so.  I did a ton of stretching and knee exercises and it was fine.

Getting it shaved/removing part of it (meniscectomy) is a different procedure. You got the Dollar Tree option while Brown got  the quality option.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10518210/

"This study has demonstrated a significant clinical benefit in patients with isolated meniscal tears undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery. The outcomes of meniscal repair were superior to that of meniscectomy at medium-term follow-up. Meniscal repair is a more biologically preserving procedure of the knee joint and should be performed preferentially over meniscectomy in isolated meniscal tears when feasible"

without a doubt his was much more serious, I am just saying of all the knee injuries it appears that the meniscus tear appears to the the shorter recovery time compared to acl/pcl/mcl.  Seems like people bounce back quicker whether its a clean up or full tear.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      By 52Beast · Posted

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
