Another week...another big injury

Shockey with a concussion. This is big IMO ( at least looking at the game Sun). The 2 TE sets are huge for Cam. In addition to being saftey valves they play huge factors in the coverage Smitty gets.

Just seems like these guys can't catch a break.

Shockey getting hurt was just a matter of time.

Not as worried about it with Olsen as his backup. I know Hartsock isn't much of a pass threat though.

If they bench Legapoo and put in LaFell as our #2 WR, we will still have a good assortment of passing weapons.

And Shockey might get cleared by Sunday.

Conspiracy spin: This is a precaution to protect him from an NFL fine after yesterday's tweets and he's really fine, lol.

And if it's serious, Brockel looked pretty good in the times I saw him in PS. I'd like to see how he does if given the chance as the #2TE if Shockey is injured.

I'm certainly hoping Shock is ready to go come game time though!

I wouldn't be too awful worried with Olsen as the backup. Hope Hartsock can at least block

but again, it is about the 2 TE sets. Carolina can't run the same ones they have been relying on w/ 1 pass catching TE and a blocker.

Didn't consider Olsen the #2. They were both #1's and now we are down a player.

If they can limit the impact of a bullet, I know they limit the impact for your head

Different applications. And I'm not personally convinced that's concussions are a bigger problem now than before, just better recognized and responded to... or at least not patently ignored.

    • I mean I think its a bit disingenuous to call basically anyone here a casual fan. I don't think the casual fan creates a profile then logs into it, in the offseason, to comments on mundane offseason topics.. I dont think anyone on here would be considered a casual fan. That said, I get your point. My POV is from the player. They sign this contract, move their family because of these contracts. When Clowney came him, we basically had a coming home party for him.  So yeah, I get why we did it and I know that ultimately the owner doesnt 'save' money, but I can feel for the human side of the player, which is why I want them to get all they can while they can. 
    • My guess is the NBA will either send Flagg back “home” to the Northeast in Brooklyn or Washington, or San Antonio so that they can keep building around Wemby. If I was a betting man I would take the odds on the Spurs. This definitely feels like a #1 pick that they will rig.
    • In fairness, she is ensuring she is talked about.  People really aren’t going out there way to bring her up.  It’s some weird poo.  She would end up getting talked about given her actions if she was 40. Bill realizing some of these high end “companions” got a game of their own.  That’s what I don’t think Bill saw coming.
