Someone tweeted the stat the other day that Dak is 6-20 against teams with. +.500 records.

If your first reaction is to say something like “wuh, wuh, our defenses sucked...the coaching let him down...he can’t do it himself” then you should understand the complete stupidity of using “QB W/L” records altogether, and won’t trot it out yourself when convenient in the future.
that's oncorrect.....

Hurns had a dislocated ankle. Dak had a broken ankle bone that was poking through his skin.

Tibia and fibula fractures normally take 6-8 weeks before you can weight bear according to multiple internet searches. Typical recovery time is 4-6 months. We are 5 months into this, with the best care you could receive. He is well within expected time and since training camp is 4-5 months away, it is pretty safe to assume he will be ready for season.

I think people over blow the "poking through the skin" aspect. It does add a chance of infection, but otherwise once the bone is set the healing process on the bone is the same.

I would say your part right about the infection concern. But there are different ways bones break and so e are worse than others. I think the fact that Dak needed a plate and screws put in he probably broke both of those bones.

Feet first...from your head to your toes...that broken ankle has tons of nerves that go all the way to the toes. Plus repairing blood vessels down to them toes.

His bone will be strong, but all that anatomy down to the toes, that's another situation. The skin is already healed. That is the biggest organ in our body. And if he has to have all them nuts and bolts in there forever, he will need to have more surgery to get them taken out.

It's a Jaylon thing...takes some real long time, not just a year or so...

Without question bones can break in different ways that can cause different problems, but that's true whether the bone breaks through the skin or not. The bone breaking through the skin doesn't automatically mean it is a more complicated break to repair or take longer to heal. It's possible for a simple, easy to set and heal break to pop through the skin if the break pushes the sharp edge a certain way, and it's also possible for a complicated and difficult break to not poke through the skin.

The nuts and bolts could have been required whether the bone pierced the skin or not though. That's my point. Nerves and ligaments also can be affected whether a bone pierces the skin or not. The bone piercing the skin isn't really the key point with how the bone will heal. The key is whether the break is clean or not, and whether there was nerve, tendon or ligament damage or not. A bone can pierce the skin without there being significant damage to those things, and there can be significant damage to those things without the bone piercing the skin.

As for taking the nuts and bolts out, they don't always take them out, but even if they do, that's not something that takes serious recovery time and effort. Like you said, things are healed at that point. It's essentially being careful for awhile so the scar can heal.

As a general rule when someone has to tell me they are something, they rarely are that thing. Similarly this post sort of screams of overcompensation.
You scream envy.
Don't go into fry bread country. He'll hurt you.

Todd France is the sole problem. Dak wants to be here and the team wants him here. Solve the Todd France issue, we solve the Dak issue.
