Tapper has pars defect

[thisiscowboyscountry]

Yep.

I mean there are fans that still claim we are in better shape today than 2014.

With a DE depth chart of Mayowa, Irving, J. Crawford and Wilber................... that's actually worse than guys like Selvie, etc.

I was hoping atleast one of Mayowa, Tapper, Irving, or Russell showed something in preseason, but there is more uncertainy now than at the start of the preseason. On the plus side the dts should be much better than 2014, which hopefully helps offset weakness at de. Still not sure why we rolled the dice and passed on des in free agency when we knew we were likely targeting Elliott with the first pick. Williams, long, any of those guys would have made this line much more respectable right now.

On another note I wasnt ready to let Ware go in 2014, despite the injuries how much better would this group look with Ware in the fold? I often wonder if Gregory is still with the team under the mentorship of Ware. Even Vonn Miller has credited Ware with impacting his career.

Team doctors probably found it on his admission X-rays. It's not a fracture, but a defect in the development of the vertebral facets that interlock vertebrae. It creates a risk of instability, significant enough to deny military service.

I don't see how he can play with that kind of risk unless he has corrective surgery.
Maybe that's the plan.

But Garrett said he is day to day...

A lot of people seem not to realize that if a guy walks onto the field for one play during training camp he's no longer NFI eligible. It's kind of stupid, but that's the rule.

Is it the rule that is stupid?

Or the stupid that doesn't know the rule?

 

[JDSmith]

Is it the rule that is stupid?

Or the stupid that doesn't know the rule?

I was taking issue with the rule at that point, just because it makes it too risky for a guy to try and come back for fear he'll lose his NFI status.

I'm not going to touch the other part.

 

[lostar2009]

Because it's always hurt him? If it's always hurt and someone says,"Oh, that pain is caused by xyz" you can safely assume you've always had xyz. You must be one of the people here who are too stupid to know they're stupid. Good try!

Typical puppet talk. It's okay sheep.

By week 2 from the looks of it.

That's a projection, and we know how often the our med staff gets that right.

Wow, personal shot?

Congenital drama defect. That is likely a genetic condition, bra.

k.

This seems pars for the course for the Cowboys.

Tapper said he's had it since childhood but it was never diagnosed. Well how did they know he had since childhood if they didn't diagnose it in childhood. Does it hurt him? Was the paralysis he felt at camp from this injury or something different? Can he play? Is there any long term risk if he plays? Twitter is great and all but they don't give any information.

@Risen Star, dude just flaunt to the ladies how many likes you have. Like walk up to a lady and be like, "hey baby I got 3400 likes, what are we going to do about it".

1. He lives in Philly. There are no "Ladies" there.

2. In Philly, if you want to attract females, you just scream "Cowboys Suck".

I've had him on Ignore for over a year, but still. That explains so much.

I dont think the claim is that the current DEs are better. Its based on having better DTs, healthy Sean Lee, Byron Jones, and Mo playing better? Personally these DEs are killing my faith but any Dline with out golden cock has to be better right?

Not really. More a general shot at people who get it wrong every year

[DallasEast]

They really don't need to divulge their every thought to the general public, even to us CZ elites.

Truth.

I only get that when dealing with my kids...

Today I learned pars defect was a thing.

I thought it was a dessert.............

 

[MichaelWinicki]

Yes, the overall defense is better than '14.
