Fleming will dominate.

Need him healthy for Philly

 

[Risen Star]

Get him off the sidelines. Tell him to go quilt something in the locker room while the men play football.

Well, the men and Prescott.

Have a feeling this isn’t actually a “stinger”. They also called Fred’s injury a stinger for a couple of weeks. Tyron had a giant brace on his elbow and don’t believe anything was said of that?

I know. When he came into the league everyone around here was like we got a LT for the next 12-15 years. Well be lucky if he makes it to 10.

It makes you wonder about his off season routine. His back issues have been going on for years............. maybe he spends all off season in a lazy boy recliner with a beer..........like me. hehe

Better let him rest up. We have a division to win.

Full agreement on that point.
Noah Brown come on down and be our blocking TE

115 games + 8 nfl training camps along with 2 years as USC. Can’t imagine at all how his body could be messed up

Tyron just started younger than everyone else. Most people in his draft class are 29/30 already. Perfectly standard timeline for decline in the NFL really. Unless it’s a QB, it’s rare for a player to have 8+ years of prime play. Those who do are 1st ballot HOF most of the time. But luckily for us Tyron was great and has declined to still damn good. Obviously you’d like for him to stay healthy, but if we get 13 games out of him every year it is what it is as far I’m concerned. I’ll take Tyron for 13 over 80-90% of OT’s for 16.

While it may be time to start looking for a long term replacement for him he is still better than most.

It seems that once back problems show up, they never go away.

Uh oh, Guillain-Barre syndrome is contagious

Well that ain’t good, not good at all.

rest up for a game or two before a new injury pops up

True. He turns 28 on December 12th. Sadly, it looks like he's seen better days. So far, it's been his back, neck, elbow and shoulder.
