Never personally torn a bicep, but everything I know about that injury points to him not returning this season.

True enough but medical procedures a have been rapidly advancing and you would have to think he has access to the best doctors, therapists, etc.

So is it the same as it was ten years ago? 5 years? I don’t know but would think the possibility exists that they can fix and rehab it.  
I mean, I have seen him get pushed around before so am not calling him Superman. But just say that maybe a guy goes down this week, you never know, our depth is pretty thin. If he could be available we would certainly be better off.

It still happens a lot in strength sports.  Its typically a pretty devastating injury.

I would think it is. Devastating. Torn apart main muscle…. 
I am not trying to be inflexible or to put him at an elevated risk just wondering where the medical boundaries are compared to 5 or 10 years ago. If they have changed. 
Generally you need to protect the player from himself.

I dont even think this years roster is even top 10 in terms of talent in our history

But you look at the standings right now and if we can handle business and win the division this conference looks wide open for a team like ours to make a surprise run. Very possible we could be hosting the NFC Championship if we pull a win out of our ass in the divisional round. Assuming the standings hold up were looking at a Niners team round 1 that we honestly should have beat and then it’s very possible the Eagles and Bears get upset as well by the Rams/Packers/Seahawks. If he’s healthy theres no way you dont bring back your best road grader lineman
