News: PFT: Dak Prescott on his sore shoulder: Everything's fine

[RonnieT24]

Jerry's decision to ride with nothing at back-up QB is looking real smart right now.

Not really.. There is going to be 20 journeyman vets available in a coupla weeks. Jerry knows there is going to be a glut of backup QB wannabes on the market in a minute so there is no need to go committing too much money on the chumps who are out there now. Anybody not on a roster when the rosters sit at 90 is REAL garbage and no better than Nooch and GG.

i'm not gonna worry about this unless he misses reg season games.
ignore the chatter.

He most likely will. Thanks to Jerry the incentive to excel is gone.

Well if he doesn't practice enough heading into the season and starts the season out stinking up the joint that's going to be a problem. He needs to get some work in .. keep being careful to make sure he doesn't hurt himself but he don't need to be standing around watching for the next 5 weeks then try to go play against the Bucs. But yeah.. the kneejerk chatter aint worth being bothered with. I will keep my ears open for legit reports from guys out at practice.

doubt it.
nothing indicates he'll miss reg season games.

exactly.

Either Dak is milking this or he needs an emergency amputation

its not the real Dak but an alien clone.

Again if his shoulder was fine he’d be practicing end of story. He also had an mri and reports he could miss a couple weeks and it’s his throwing shoulder.

Minor thing. Nothing to worry about. They’re just being cautious. End of story.

I just heard someone on the radio (I think it was David Moore) say it was a lat strain. Which I think is more of the back than it is shoulder. But consistent with having done more throwing with all arm and less with the lower body during rehab. That muscle just done got more work than it was used to. And no matter how much it bothers some folks here you SHOULD be more cautious with your 40 million dollar a year player than with your 2 million dollar a year player.

Half of this board has the I.Q. of a banana slug. And that’s an insult to banana slugs.

Common sense is not generally accepted here. Some will look upon you with scorn!

Any way you slice it this is a huge blow for the team.

Good thing we signed Hooker ...... 'cause he's an emergency QB I read.


Hey-oh!

Not a good omen when your QB tears a shoulder muscle throwing a football.

You've never played baseball or basketball or football obviously. Pitchers and QB's get sore arms. It's part of the business. And look up the difference between a strain and a pull before sticking your foot in your mouth. Again.

In this instance it wasn't even his arm. It was a lat muscle. He could have just hit the lat machine too hard the night before. If they had said it was in the elbow or the shoulder/rotator cuff area I would be concerned. That could be structural but a lat muscle? Half the posters here apparently don't even know where it is since they keep posting crap about his "throwing arm."

 

[MarcusRock]

Did somebody take over Roy's account? I don't know what's going on here. He actually sounds reasonable and realistic.

Can they take over @acr731's account next?

 

[MarcusRock]

Shoulda set it to 51. What were you thinking, Dak? Thanks a lot!

Big time freaking out. But you probably hoped like hell he was badly hurt didn't you.

 

[Hagman]

He set it at 40. That’s his average yearly salary in millions more for the next few years.

and if I made that much money I’d sleep like a baby too.

 

[charron]

The ignorance of this place never ceases to amaze me. I guess you don't realize he's been working out all offseason and before. SMH.

How much has he been throwing all offseason? Why is he sore now if he has been throwing?

 

[DandyDon52]

no worries, my pet cat GG is ready to take over anytime dak cant play!!
