And WTF is with this snowflake crap comment?

Being a running back it is safe to say that last years NFL #1 draft choice Saquon Barkley took a lot more hits in his college career when he came into the league. He had played 38 games in college and touched the ball 773 times. Even with that work load he started 16 games for the G-men and had 360 touches and was rookie of the year. That is tough young man .

In contrast our precious little Snowflake played 29 games and had 77 total tackles in 3 years in college and won't even be on the field for opening day for the team. Don't question my knowledge of toughness.

He's a professional football player and you're calling him a snowflake...it's not your "knowledge of toughness" we're questioning. Although it seems like you're specially proficient in internet toughness.

And unless I checked Barkley a running back is very rarely going to be in a situation where he's engaged with a guy trying to block him as a 300 lb man falls on the back of his leg.

How many times does Barkley block in pass protection? How many of those infrequent snaps is he blocking where all the big bodies are? It's not a toughness situation. It's a luck situation.

Don't worry considering I have the #1 overall pick in my FF league and will be taking Barkley his luck will likely run out today...cuz that tends to happen with the first picks I have.

Hahaha question your knowledge of toughness like your the guy who's getting a massive human rolled up on your ankle. Your boy Barkley will fall to the ground if the same s**t happens to him (and it has and he did) go look at the Michigan St game.

Is it me or is calling Bosa a snowflake kinda backwards lol? I've always kinda deemed that a uber liberal thing...maybe I'm wrong

What? You are comparing apples and oranges here. Let's move on, but calling one of our players "precious little snowflake" is stupid, inflammatory and unjustified.
Already out of the walking boot and doing light work. Should be good for week 1

...that's not how sprains are diagnosed

Oh but you said there's zero chance he's 100% because it was a high ankle sprain. Disregarding the fluidity of injuries and case by case scenarios. I got a PT telling me if it's a high ankle sprain (any grade) they're in a walking boot for 2+ weeks.

No one diagnosed it as a high ankle sprain and the fact that he isn't wearing a boot a week after his injury (less based on walk Kyle stated) backs that claim up.

It is super hard to have a conversation with you. I respect your passion as a fan. You're jumping between my comments and lumping things together to represent I don't know what. Of course he won't be 100% with his high ankle by week 1.

You act like we need to have a private conversation with the doctor. The GM literally said it's high ankle "components". That is a high ankle sprain. I don't know what else to say man.

Ahh he said components then he said, but it's not a high ankle sprain (kyle said the same thing). we don't know what "components" means...that's straight up guessing (something you don't like to do).

I'm saying if he did have a high ankle he wouldn't be out of a walking boot in less then a week (reportedly). He more than likely wouldn't have walked off on his own power either.

I mean you talk about wanting to use quantifiable data in one instance, then don't apply it to a similar thing? I wouldn't say that's mashing up a bunch of stuff.

FYI I respect your comments a lot in here (don't always agree), we're just having a debate on the matter.

??

Like every other sprain there are grades of severity. If it involves structures of the high ankle...it is quite literally a high ankle sprain. There is no debating that. No credible doctor would ever dance around the topic like John Lynch did. Lynch did his PR thing, which is his job. He knows "high ankle sprain" freaks people out.

If what you're trying to say is that it's not the worst possible grade for a high ankle sprain...then yes, that is right. If it was the worst case sprain he would be out for the year.

Dance around terms is what we do here!!
