FEATURED Tyler Smith Is Out 4-6 Weeks

[ElGatoGrande]

Wow so waited a week before the first game?

Exactly, it's 4-6 weeks recovery and they've freaking known about it for a month?! Well, good thing our first 6 games are so easy, eh.?

 

[Whirlwin]

No treble

It’s gonna be a 30 page thread, lol

Putting him on IR is the smart move. Leaving him on the 53 ties up a roster spot for 4 weeks....for what?

Putting him on the IR is exactly the opposite of putting themselves into a corner. This gives them flexibility with his roster spot.

You can't convince me he couldn't play in 2 weeks tops. The pussification of America is beyond absurd anymore.

A real man would suite up. Hell....Ronnie Lott cut off his damn finger to play. Just goes to show....different times in America. I know I didn't raise my kids that way.

Air deflating sound

Told y'all we should have kept Brock Hoffman. Now the Cowboys are weak at Tackle and Guard positions.

Leverett is better than Hoffman.

You mean the same staff that won the 2021 Ed Block NFL Athletic Training Staff of the Year?

lol yes that staff. They are trash. The training facilities are consistently rated low by the players and we have had a lot of players get injured and never be the same again.

 

[Floatyworm]

Who is the backup behind Bass ..?

Right now.....We got nobody on the active roster. This is complete roster mismanagement....And honestly...I blame the damn special teams coach. Dude thinks he's gotta have 15-20 guys to play...just special teams. How about you just use your LBers...and your backup O-line....and just kick the damn ball out of bounds?

Ugh…. These things don’t fix themselves. Should have just done the surgery weeks ago. Dumb.

Even if they would he could play through it. Was early enough to take care of it properly.

Where’s Mickey at with the official explanation of this debacle?

It’s gonna be a 30 page thread, lol

Not our fault tell Tyler to get his surgery done earlier

 

[Mikemcm]

At least it was interior OL where we have good depth. I think Bass can hold the fort until Smith is back.

Bass is horrible.

 

[Floatyworm]

It's crap like this that really sometimes makes me wonder if Schotty is the right guy....Let's just pretend this didn't happen...sweep it under the rug...And hopefully it will just heal itself...and just go away.

My God...this team ALWAYS finds a way to mess something up. ALWAYS...

 

[Pentagruel]

Bass is horrible.

Why do you think that?

 

[Established1971]

***? Where did this come from?

KNICKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Floatyworm]

Bass is a starting caliber left guard. If you have to have an injury, this is where you'd want it.

What?????? Yes....Let's have an injury to an interior O-lineman....So our only back up has to play. Let's roll into the season with absolutely no one as back up on the interior. Great plan schmucks.

 

[slick325]

That's unfortunate.

TJ Bass...step right up.

 

[deerhunter11]

Was probably going to be close anyways

It might be a little closer now, this is a big blow for Dallas. They can overcome this but it is problem, when your best 5 lineman are not on the field to start against a good defensive front like the Giants have.

 

[erod]

Leverett is better than Hoffman.

At guard, maybe. Hoffman is a better center. Hoffman doesn't hold up over multiple weeks though.

 

[stinkface]

Bass is horrible.

I don't think he would have been given a second round tender if he was horrible.

 

[Whirlwin]

Not our fault tell Tyler to get his surgery done earlier

I think the thumb must’ve been bent
And it ended up hurting the tendon, because it probably wasn’t in a damn cast, so now he’s gonna miss the first month
