stinger to his shoulder? after taking a hit to the lower back...not good

 

[Toruk_Makto]

Good news.

 

[Zordon]

He needs to go back to what he was doing 2 years ago - just fall down.

Actually normal, at least in my case. I fell off a ladder (flat on my ***) and jammed my back similar to what Romo did. I felt like I got a stinger in the shoulder, also. The back has nerves that reach the entire body.

Umm, the nerves in the low back have NOTHING to do with pain in the shoulder.

When you fell your spinal column likely compressed from top to bottom....probably tweaked a cervical nerve AND a lumbar nerve.

• C4 helps control the shoulders as well as the diaphragm—the sheet of muscle that stretches to the bottom of the rib cage—for breathing. The C4 dermatome covers the neck and top of the shoulders.

Every Dlineman is gonna hit Romo in that shoulder area. He needs to just go down, throw it away, or go visit Mrs Mannings doctor in Florida

Well, you have to remember that Tony can be full of crap and he could be hurting like hell... but remember he has played with punctured lungs, ribs, broken bone in his back, etc. He has been dealing with the back for a while now, and it probably acts up all of the time and we don't always know about it. Stuff like this isn't going to end his season. Remember it's the collarbone we're worried about. Again, he can deal with the back.

fact is,you cant candy coat that its not a good sign for him all around.
Dak may get more than he really is ready for and sooner

Notice how Seattle was celebrating when they saw Tony down.

you are basically admitting its over. His playing with injury has gotten the team no where but losing in first or second round

Yes, it's upsetting. There is a real hatred for him and this franchise around the league. I just wish we had a few more Michael Irvins and Erik Williams on the team to fight back. The team looked pretty soulless tonight for a dress rehearsal game.

Please stop playing doctor.

If they didn't feel the need for even an x-ray, there's nothing to worry about here.

I won't be surprised if he's out week 1.

Possible because the ladder crashed on me too (didn't hit my shoulder). But Romo also had the defender jam the top of his back/shoulder as he hit the turf.

you're right I'm not a doctor.....either way i think he's just about done.
