Tannehill Injury Update Thread

[Section126]

 

[AL R]

Pro football Doc was thinking maybe a rotator cuff partial tear?

 

[elite14eva]

oh boy

 

[jazz015]

thanks guys appreciate the work you put In.

So now it really is.... BROCKTOBER:cry

 

[AL R]

oh boy

Well once the AC joint sprain was eliminated, the ofher oprions seemed worse, unfortunately

 

[circumstances]

Could have been much worse news.

C'mon Brock! Do it again vs. the Lions!

 

[Manning]

Probably can merge with the other Palm Beach Post "out indefinitely" post. No reason to clog up the boards with all of this repetition.

Bro it's the teams starting QB. Any news on his injury is worth a new thread. It's actually the first thing I'm looking for when I come in here

 

[circumstances]

That's what everyone hopes. But as teams start game planning specifically for Brock it's going to get much harder for the offense.

Hopefully we just need Brockmagic for one more game :)

Surgery is not off the table. But it’s not the current plan.

 

[FinSolari]

If we lose Tannehill for the remainder of the season (or the bulk of it), do we give him a pass on this year and wait for year 8 to see if he's the man ? Or do we add injury risk to the list of issues with the guy and just move on ?

Goodness without Tannihill how different is this team from last years?

That's a great question.

Answer is...a fair amount.

Last year it took half the season for Xavien Howard to come alive and become the player he is. There was no Minkah Fitzpatrick. There was no Robert Quinn. There was no Jerome Baker. Even with the ups and downs of Raekwon McMillan, a year ago it was just downs, because the guys we tried in McMillan's place sucked. A year ago Kiko Alonso was playing awful. This year he has already stamped his ticket to the Pro Bowl six weeks into the season. Big difference. A year ago we didn't have this sort of game-breaking ability in the wide receivers unit. A year ago we didn't have Frank Gore. A year ago, Ja'Wuan James was gone for the second half of the season.

 

[hoops]

Does last weeks game at least count for one week of the down time? Lol. Can I wish for it?

I guess if the strength doesn’t come back he goes under the knife and is done for the year.

So dolphins.

With this new information that would have RT returning @GB or possibly after our Bye. That's a pretty long stretch but the schedule doesn't look too brutal. Brocktober-fest currently in full effect now - expect a lot more bubble screens.

 

[circumstances]

If all goes well, the two to three week eval period will be all that's necessary, and he can return after the Thursday night Houston game. 11/4, home versus the Jests.

Yeah an extra 10 days would be GREAT
