Twitter: Gerald McCoy Injured - out for season **merged**

[G2]

Here we don't man up we just use injuries as excuses for our inept players.....

Injuries aren't excuses if they're a factor.

He's getting an MRI later today.

All those people saying we should’ve cut Tyrone Crawford during the off-season, raise your hand...

<<<<that's me raising my hand

What's bothering me is the "visibly frustrated" part.

Players know when its bad.

I've seen guys walk off and have a tear and guys carted off with w sprain. MRI will tell the story of course.

This is just BS. Cant be happy for even a week, but I guess it's part of the deal, and he isnt in the top 15 of guys we cant lose.

Excellent post and points.

That's the thing. Deciding on the "factor".
Can good coaching and good backup personnel be "factors" in reducing the injury problems?

 

[Joe Realist]

There will be lots of NFL injuries. Better increase rosters to 65.

 

[Stash]

He was old last year too. He played in 16 games.

Age likely has nothing to do with what happened today.

He creates false narratives and runs with them.

Crawford is highly respected in the NFL and one of the coaches' favorite players.

Fans just have no idea what they're watching.

Any DT free agents still out there? Or possible trade candidates?

Marcelius Darius- age 30

Corey Liuget - age 30

Sylvester Williams - age 31

Xavier Williams- age 28

Can't tell whether Hill tripped him intentionally or not.

 

[tyke1doe]

He's scheduled for amputation, per RisenStar.com

I'm still at the front of that line.

But of course, if McCoy's injury is serious, he's certainly going nowhere, or taking that much-needed paycut.

Theres some depth there, and I'm gonna choose to look at it as Gallimore is a ready to play rookie. He will get that many more snaps.

Also less of a chance they give up on Hill prematurely.

Just trying the bright side on!

Poe is the guy I never expected to see the field for more than a couple of games. That dude is an injury waiting to happen at all times.

McCoy I thought might be able to stretch it out a bit.

Up until last year, when he played 11 games (tore his quad muscle), Poe had played 16 games for three straight seasons and had never played in less than 15 games in a season in his entire career.

He's been one of the more durable DTs throughout his career.

I would still pull a guy like snacks off the street for about 7m less.

Harrison would actually make a handful of plays here and there.

Doesnt he live in Dallas? Makes sense if McCoy to IR.

 

[Sydla]

He creates false narratives and runs with them.

LOL. He did it with Poe claiming he's always an injury waiting to happen despite the fact that in 8 seasons, Poe has only missed 7 games and 5 were from last year when he tore his quad.

I'm going even brighter and hoping that McCoy's injury isn't serious!

Yup. I just giggle to myself anytime I see fans on here trying to cut him. Go to the Star and walk around, you'll see his picture everywhere. He's one of the "faces" of the org b/c of his work-ethic/character.
