  • Damn, that sucks. Do people come back as fast from an acl? I know there's the mental aspect, but from a purely physical standpoint... But if anyone can afford to lose a step from an injury it's benjamin

    Actually, I think if there's anyone that *can't* afford to lose a step it's Benjamin. His main/only asset is his speed. If he goes from 4.3 to 4.4 or 4.5, then he's just an undersized, inexperienced receiver that has a history of knee injuries.

    Tony Grossi reports on twitter that Benjamin has torn ACL. Out for the rest of the season.

    Fucking, fucking fuck. Fuck me, fuck you, motherfucker.

  • Chud has announced, that in order to save a roster spot, Brandon Weeden will be our new punt returner.

    The other 10 guys have been instructed not to block.

  • guys are coming back stronger and faster from that injury...if they put their balls into the rehab. Travis needs to stop spinning on returns. You've got guys running their best 40's right at you diving at your legs....you can't be planting and spinning like that.

  • Well hoyer will have a work out buddy now. this sucks because our return game has no one really with home run speed. Id like to try skrine there again guy is the fastest player we have after Benjamin. Also would of like to see us sign Cribbs as a stop gap. We know he could play better than what we've got returning kicks now. However, that ship has sailed with him signing as a Jet just recently.

  • Shit!!!!!

    Can players come back as fast? Yes...

    Do players come back as fast? Yes...

    But it's not a matter of straight ahead speed. Benji was as quick / elusive as he was fast. And it's the elusive bit that suffers more often.

    LMAO...

    Needed a little comic relief after this thread...

  • Awww, what the fuck. How come our guys are getting fucked up so badly. That's bullshit. The trainer needs to go.

    Of all the moronic things you've said here (and the list is quite lengthy), this might be the most moronic of them all.

    LOL, correct me if I'm wrong, but the "trainer" works with you after you are injured. Did the head trainer not run out there fast enough after he tore his ACL?

    Maybe he means Strength and Conditioning coach. Maybe that guy was supposed to make Travis Benjamin's knee stronger.

    Apparently it's those guys fault as well that Hoyer doesn't know how to slide properly. He really should blame his little league coach. How many ACL injuries have there been this year. Fire all the trainers! The Rams guy.....fire him. It's his fault Bradford is done.

  • Don't mind POG. If you ignore him he'll just go away.

  • Yep, I meant Strength and Conditioning Coach, lol.. The guys need more stretching of the tendons and muscles. Dqwell should tell all these guys about the oxygen tent that he sleeps in. I know he was advocating it a couple of years ago to the team but this is a completely new team now. Maybe he should bring that back up.

    All the runningback injuries. OL injuries, QB injuries, even LB's are tweaking and pulling all over the place. There IS a way to minimize injuries, this S&C Coach is not getting it done. FAIL.

  • Mark my words. OBI will have a season ending injury next. He's just not big enough to play the FB spot. Guys are lighting him up left and right. If anybody need an oxygen tent it's I'magobbleya.

  • I guess the Rams Strength coach and the Seahawks strength coach should be fired too because they had players go down with ACL injuries.

    You're an idiot. How about the fact that these are really big dudes running a million miles an hour into each other and injuries are now and always have been part of the game.

  • it's also about the fields and playing conditions.

    man you plant your foot the wrong way and someone hits you to turn against your momentum and your foot is still stuck in the ground?

    but i am one to agree with PoG that the Sand C trainers /coaches need these guys not only to bulk up but get fluid and stretched.

    i remember the DE or LB from the old patriots squad ( the one who showed his junk to the female reporter) and re tippet (?) took martial arts and yoga.

    maybe we can get the whole team in a yoga class with tutus on and then march them down to the local dojo.

    couldn't hurt cuz obviously these guys aren't getting it done.

    OR maybe it's because the defense can't hit high anymore???????
