News: DMN: Source: Dallas Cowboys MLB Rolando McClain has right knee examined by Dr. James Andrews

[CowboyGil]

Why are all of our linebackers made of glass?

First Sean Lee cant stay on the field and now RoMac gets hurt every freaking week.

Like WG said, he was coming back from a year out of football. And the way he plays, it's not surprising.

 

[KDM256]

Nobody can't deny the impact McClain has had with this Dallas team this year, especially in the beginning of the season. Kid was a wrecking ball and prove doubters wrong that he can still play this game at an high level.

I can't deny that at the end of the season Rolo was getting ding up pretty bad to the point he couldn't practice during the week but still found a way to suit up for gamedays but with the emphasis on concussions these days, any sign of one, teams are going to pull you regardless if you feel like its justified or not..

 

[Bowdown27]

I think he just faded because of his lack of playing football recently. I mean before the season. Was in and out of football. Full offseason will do him wonders. I think if we resign anyone. I'd go mcclain and carter. Durant Imo is odd man out.

That is the big LB question. JMO but it will be a cost driven decision and we end up with RoMc and Durant.

 

[AKATheRake]

McClain was a pleasant surprise this year but has too many question marks to give a big deal to

With Lee, Hitchens and Wilber coming back, they really only need to get one of RoMc, Carter or Durant signed. Two would be gravy.

I liked Durants play and want all 3 back but if I have to go with 2 I take RoMc and Carter.

Carter makes plays and RoMc is a physical force. If Sean Lee can come back healthy and finally play a full season there is the deadliest play maker at LB.

Get some safety help, a viable pass rusher to pair with Lawrence and a very good 1 tech beside Crawford who's turning into a hell of a player.

If Carr restructures we keep him cause he can play, especially with better pressure and safety help. If not we also need another corner.

RoMc is one of those guys that makes team mates around him confident and fearless.
Hes mean. If hes mentally in it then we have to get him back.

 

[LatinMind]

Sounds like he just needs to heal up this offseason.. He got dinged a lot trying to come back from a year off.

Cowbous should offer in a 4 yr deal 15mil. 6mil SB

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

His concussions / "sickness" still seem a little sketchy to me, but I'm sure that the team knows what the real issues are. We really missed him against GB.

Every injury report that the team puts out is sketchy. I don't know why that makes it his issue and not the team's if it is an 'issue' to begin with.

 

[mahoneybill]

I hope he is good to go, he was becoming one of my favorite players on Def

Mine too. Never thought we would do as well with Lee out at LB position . Also he is another vocal D leader like O Scan...

 

[BoysFan4ever]

Hope he comes back. Roll Tide!

That is a good point. He did seem to make the others around him more confident in their play.

Not really, most injury reports are understandable, you can usually infer from what had happened on the field or what a reporter saw in practice. You must not be paying attention or are just angry or something.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

I am so disappointed with this here handringing over a marginal and brittle player. Yes, RoMac contribulated to the boys this year but you make it out like he is a tier 1 player. No he is not.
We should not be so taken by such journiesmens that we loose perspective so cut it out and relax and let us look for QUALITY FAs this offseason. don't gift me that look and half some decorum here. I means it.

They have been coy about the nature of McClain's injuries to the point where all manner of negative speculation ensued. Your is a great example but before he was melting down emotionally in TC and not working hard. It has since come out to be everything but the truth.

They didn't reveal Romo's back injury.

Melton's injuries regarding his knee and groin as well as the severity were never made clear. The team said one thing. He said another.

Claiborne's injury severity having torn 3 ligaments was not known until recently interviewed. He was injured in late summer.

You listen to Garrett's press conference's and he gives the exact same canned answers regardless of player or injury: "i'm not a doctor," "day-to-day, "we'll see," etc.

I'm not mad. I do pay attention. Another option is that you are inventing stories with no basis in reality.
