It's only week #1 & a top QB has gone down! wrote:
The trainers can give what they call the "Thompson test" to determine if there's an Achilles injury. They must have done this test because the head coach said it doesn't look good mentioning an Achilles injury.
An MRI later today will confirm & determine the the extent of the injury.
Not only is this season ending but possibly career ending for Rodgers.
Zach Wilson is going to have to grow up in a hurry. He did play much better in the 2nd half throwing the game winning TD in the 4th Qtr. 👍

Almost anyone can diagnose a torn AT. Even the guy who owns the Achilles. You feel a pop, your foot doesnt "work" (plantarflex), its fairly obvious. Often you can visibly see it.

Amazing how this injury takes down so many athlete late in career just planting like they have done a million times. Never forget Bernie Kosar dropping back, planting to throw, ruptured Achilles. Same age.

This injury robs Aaron of the opportunity to tie Peyton's all-time record of 6 home playoff losses by a starting QB. So maybe it's a coin-flip.

NFL owners are all Billionaires paying the teams salaries of over 200M per year, but they do not want to spend a few extra dollars maintaining a natural grass playing fields to protect their assets ...the players, it makes zero sense. As a result ACL, MCL, Achilles injuries abound.

All these Achilles injuries lately. Must be because of the jab. Oh wait…

Rodgers is much better than Manning.

You need to put Manning's record into context. He played in a historically weak division, the AFC South, which essentially had THREE expansion teams -- the Houston Texans, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Tennessee Titans. These teams mostly sucked during his career. His record against the rest of the NFL, not nearly so good. He may have the most 1-and-dones in playoff history.

During his Super Bowl run with the Colts, he threw more picks than TDs during the playoffs. Rescued by a stout defense, and the Bears QB was drunk during the Super Bowl.

The strong Denver defense carried him to his last title. He could barely throw.

Manning is still a top 20 QB, but he is not as good as his stats showed.

If the achilles is torn, it ends his season.

He can come back

I am sure if Rogers had been jabbed this injury wouldn't have happened.

He'd have been on the sideline with myocarditis

Consider the location and who uses Giants Stadium. You have a the Jets, Giants, plus special events like concerts, etc. If a natural grass surface is installed, that field does not last past the end of October.

Just look at the bigger football programs in the MAC and the B10 in Michigan and Ohio. Bowling Green, Ohio State, Michigan, Central Michigan, Toledo and Michigan State all have artificial turf fields. The debate here is how often you switch out that turf.

Here is what Bowling Green's field looked like before they removed the grass:

How does this look safe?

A removal natural turf field is easy to do for such a wealthy sporting org. Plastic grass destroys careers.

Didn't look terribly torn when he walked out from the tent and jumped into the cart.

I bet the Jets -240/+200 to win at least 10 regular season games.

So far so good.

Remember, the CIA is all powerful, that Buffalo player was definitely a CIA field operator.
