It has been said before on this thread that this kind of injury may not be too serious in the short term, but if Beason doesn't give it 5-7 days to heal, it could be a long term nightmare.

He can't play on Sat. Which is fine we will get to see Davis in as an obvious starter and this might force McDermott to start Kuechly at MLB. With the Texans' elite running game, Owens the TE who is productive there, and Schaub playing about a quarter in week 1, this will be an excellent test for the rookie.

I'm sure Beason didn't want things to work out this way. We will have to wait to see our LBs at full strength.

it could be that they made it sound worse than it really is (even tho they didn't make it sound bad to begin with). lots of teams find injury excuses so that they can sit the guys they don't want to risk to unnecessary injury in pre-season games.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Totally.  I'm less comparing them as players and using him as a reference point.  I legitimately think Bryce is capable of being a better NFL QB than Kyler has been.  Kyler has no clutch gene and doesn't seem to have a grip on the locker room, or much love for the game.  Much different body types/strengths and weaknesses.   Crazy to think-- but Kyler is at year 7 as a 1.01...38-48-1 on his career, 0-1 in the playoffs. He's somehow played well enough to keep it going but crazy to think he's barely even touched the playoffs.  Hasn't done anything that special for the Cards.  That's what you don't want to be stuck in.  Cardinals are in softball purgatory with him.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      It's not analysis. There was no attempt to analyze anything or even convey new information at all.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      As to the topic, I've complained before about "superstar" mentality, i.e. the notion that you can win championships with one superstar player surrounded by a group of mediocre fill ins. It just doesn't work. The Manning-Brady rivalry was something of a showcase for that. The Colts general approach focused everything on Manning. The Patriots? Oh, they also had a superstar quarterback but they built a complete team, especially on the defensive side. This sort of thing is why I've argued many times that "system quarterback" should be to considered a description, not an insult. I know everybody loves the "MVP" athletic types, and they're fun to watch, but that's not necessarily the true path to consistent winning and championship glory.
