I wonder why he didn't want to have surgery? Can anyone explain why a partial tear won't just heal and be fine, I'm sure he's stayed off it and rehabbed it (or maybe he didn't)?
Probably tried to strengthen the knee to see if it would hold up. It was a gamble.
I don't see that as much of an option when playing in the NFL.

Exactly how many days pass before Gase places a call to Cutler???
Report: Dolphins have reached out to Jay Cutler
Getty Images
As the Dolphins continue to await word on the severity of Ryan Tannehill‘s knee injury, the momentum for Jay Cutler is building in Miami.
The Dolphins have reached out to Cutler, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.
Dolphins coach Adam Gase, who coached Cutler when he was the Bears’ offensive coordinator in 2015, has personally been in touch with Cutler, the report says. Cutler had a good season in Gase’s offense and the two get along well personally.
The Bears cut Cutler in March, so he’s a free agent and there are no restrictions on the Dolphins contacting him or signing him. He has already signed with CBS to work as an announcer this year, but that wouldn’t preclude him from changing his mind and returning to the field if the right opportunity arises.
Gase said today that Matt Moore is now the Dolphins’ quarterback, but Gase made clear that’s only the case “right now.” If Tannehill is out for the season, the Dolphins may go shopping for a new quarterback, and Cutler could be the man.
I hope the Phins sign him, I hope is is an all star with the Phins.
That would be perfect
Even with Matt Moore at QB, this team is likely going to win enough games to keep them out of the Sam Darnold sweepstakes.
I'd say roll the dice with Cutler if he's still interested in playing.
Darnold will be Todd Marijuanavich. Never trust a guy who calls a reporter "bro."
Like Bryce Harper.

Whew, Boris!
When I saw the thread title, I was scared it was for one of our own.
Let's pray we don't have to add any more of our guys to this, or require one specifically for the Pack.
If nothing else, at least the Dolphins provide entertainment. I'd like to see them do well since they are in the same division as the Cheatriots, but I fear it won't matter who they have at QB. I doubt they could win enough games to avoid having to go to NE at some point.
The very best thing if they sign Cutler will be the outcry from the pro-Kaperdick camp. They are worse than the Kennedy conspiracy theorists!
Seriously curious if Uncle Ted would test the waters on a Hundley trade.
Anything less than a 1st round pick is unacceptable.
It's quite possible he's worth more to us than any other team.
They won't get a first rounder. He's not proven enough. Maybe if he lights it up all the way through preseason. I think they would get a 3rd at best.

I'd also want at least two starting defensive players.
If #7 lights it up for two preseason games, and the Miami Lice, ... I mean Vice, or should I say Dolphins, .... become very desperate and package 2 #1's, and 3 other picks, TT won't be able to help himself. Hundley is gone and Callahan is the new #2 until further notice.
Brainwashed Boris posted:Anything less than a 1st round pick is unacceptable.

Matt Flynn, redux? 
Hundley has definite value, but I can't see any team giving up a 1st round pick unless it could be in a conditional pick format. Something like a 3rd round pick that could elevate to a second and possibly a 1st if he has a lights-out season.
I bet he's as good as, or better than, any QB a handful of teams have on their roster (Cleveland, Chicago, Jets).
There's another handful of teams that are a crapshoot right now with their starters either because of injury (Indy /Luck, Baltimore/Flacco, and Denver/ Siemian, and of course Miami/Tannehill) or poor/questionable talent (SF, Houston, JAX, WASH, maybe BUFF).
I wonder what the prospects may be if we were able to keep him this year, and trade him next year? Any/many hot prospects eligible for next year's draft?
There's also another group of teams with starters old in the tooth, and crap for depth (AZ, PIT, CIN, maybe NO and NYG) that may offer an opportunity.
Cutler reported to sign a 1 year deal with Miami
Aint no stopping them now
1 thing I'll say is Gase got Jay to perform at a decent level when he was in Chicago. 92.3 rating that season. Best of Jays career.
JSonline is saying Vince Abberderis is out indefinitely now? The new hometown bust.
Phins were reportedly considering Tebow.
Jesus Christ.
If that isn't a money move I don't know what is. Miami is really committed to winning if they would've drag his bum ass in. Just the intent alone. With an owner/FO like that enjoy your continued failure Miami.
Henry posted:JSonline is saying Vince Abberderis is out indefinitely now? The new hometown bust.
Not news. He's been out "indefinitely" since the surgery. I'll predict he's rolling and producing by game 9.
House did not practice today, dealing with hamstring injury
Why do I feel like the season is over?
It had to be asked.
We had been dodging the injury bug fairly well. They were not the critical, front-line guys...until House.
Not that he's House Island, but he was likely going to be a key piece of the backfield. Still not devastating by any means; we just don't need 'em to start stacking up.

It that the new pre-amputation boot. As long as they bring the leeches he should recover.

So, guessing he can still play OT at about the same level as pre-injury.

Did he get back up and punch a hole in the wall?
Tough loss for Giants to take. The hit itself was certainly legal, but definitely not in the spirit of avoiding injury. Taking guys out at the knees is not seen so often today as it was years ago, and that's a good thing. The DB did nothing wrong rule-wise, but he better have his head on a swivel in the games ahead...
They say Beckham suffered a sprained ankle.
Pawsitive news:
Dean Lowry avoided a serious knee injury, according to a source. Tests showed no major damage after he was hurt in Saturday's preseason game at Washington. It's a considered a short-term injury.
i watched that obj injury. i was unsure what to make of it. so it was a legal hit, but unfortunate and in an ugly situation. so after the hit, the dude went into a weird state of mind, it was as if - i remember thinking - this guy is playing this up, ok, make sure the cameras are on me, ok, throw the helmet, ok, check...again, take a knee, ok, camera on me, let me just bypass the entire medical staff and start to walk to the tunnel. ok, take a knee...it appeared to be real diva''ish, but at the same time, it could have been legit...just don't know if we enable this guy's behavior, because of course at halftime, all the news was about...obj...strange, i was less of a fan of today's football after that performance.
I think a lot of the immediate reaction after the hit was the result of his head hitting the turf. He was checked for a concussion before having an x-ray on the ankle. Glad he's ok. Would have been a brutal way to lose your top WR before season starts.
On the replay I saw, it looked like the Cleveland DB stumbled on the turf as he was turning directions going over to cover OBJ - so it seemed to appear that's why he was low to begin with....but it also looked like the DB could've just wrapped his arms around OBJ low instead of the roll into the knee area. Glad it wasn't a serious injury because even though he might be a douche, I like to watch OBJ play WR.
Low hits are here to stay thanks to the player protection rules.
I like watching OBJ when he is between the lines and there is live action. The rest of the time, nope. It ain't all about you all the time, young man. Emotional players are great but quit preening so much.
More players need to act like Jordy, Cobb, etc., IMO. It's almost like character and coaching make a difference.
I don't think the tackle was particularly 'dirty', and I don't think that player was intending to be, but his technique was piss poor.
Head down, diving at the legs, not wrapping up, etc.
That same tackle happens against Joe Justaguy and this conversation isn't happening. I think that same tackle probably takes place quite a few times in every game.
It was kind of comical watching ESPN replay it 437 times during halftime.

Defensive lineman Dean Lowry
, who injured his knee at Washington, will not practice on Tuesday, but McCarthy said the injury is not a long-term concern.
Also, rookie linebacker Vince Biegel will not be cleared to practice or play this week. McCarthy said the fact that Biegel's foot surgery was due to a re-occurrence of a college injury is a factor in his timeline.
"There's a threshold or two more that the medical staff wants to make sure he’s clear of, because a setback is always something you want to avoid," McCarthy said. "We haven’t had any setbakcs, but it's a matter of where he is in the progress of his rehab."

On a side note, does anyone else think the Colts are essentially ruining Andrew Luck?
Colts fans will soon be kvetching (if they're not already) about Luck's "window", number of playoff appearances (not to mention lack of SB appearances), how they get curb-stomped by the Pats when they do make the playoffs.....any of this sound familiar?
Luck's situation has quickly became David Carr II. A poor OL with no immediate improvement seen, a mostly anemic rushing game, sketchy WR depth, and now injury. The GM needs to get his turds in a herd.
FWIW, I think Seattle is close to slipping into this same situation. One key injury could have them there sooner than they think.
I wonder if Greg Jennings asks the Packers if he can sign a one day contract and then retired a Packer.

I hope they sign him to a one day contract just so they can cut his ass

Who is the question.
Honestly, I hope they start working Spriggs out at RT constantly.
Murphy took the first three snaps with the 1s after Bulga went down. Then Spriggs took over.
It's an ankle injury for Bryan Bulaga, who did not return to practice. At least for his sake it's not another knee injury. Also, Jayrone Elliott (back spasms) dropped out again. So did Derrick Mathews (concussion).
In a couple weeks there's going to be about 900 players available. Some 30+ will be RT. Although, that would be a very un-Ted thing to do.
Henry posted:On a side note, does anyone else think the Colts are essentially ruining Andrew Luck?
Yes.
GBFanForLife posted:Next man up.
Hope the coaches go with Murphy if the whale misses any time.
Yeah, I'd prefer to see Murphy than Spriggs but they need to find out if Spriggs offers anything at all. I'd give the guy another year or even two but nothing sounds good about this guy.
Bryan Bulaga said he's "not too concerned" about his injured right ankle. He's still waiting for MRI results but X-rays showed no issues and he's optimistic for the Sept. 10 opener.
Sounds like good news, but the OL remains a disaster waiting to happen with an injury. Murphy is developing nicely but Spriggs is a cause for concern and hopefully it's largely a confidence issue.
take it for the grain of salt it is, but I saw Spriggs talking on the local news last nite and confidence is not the impression I got from his demeanor.
step it up man!! be the man!!
I'm all for developing the young guys, but would rather not have Rodgers in the game while Spriggs is playing. Especially against Denver. Let Callahan be sacrificial lamb... he will be cut anyway.
Fact that he "isn't expected to need surgery" suggests this isn't minor. Let's hope new GB doctor is better with ankle injuries. https://t.co/s7pQla9ktZ

#Packers RT Bryan Bulaga isn't expected to need surgery, source said. Ankle sprain, lot of swelling. Rest a couple weeks, then re-eval.
— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) August 25, 2017
With the Packers medical staff, and MM and Co. I'm sure wanting to make sure this isn't a lingering issue with Bulaga, I'm not holding my breath either that he's going to be ready for week 1.
Which means Kyle Murphy better get up to speed in a hurry.
