Was Marc Columbo 100%?

DeMarcus Ware was paralyzed for a small amount of time and made the game less than a week later.

Just saying.

Actually he wasn't paralyzed at all. He had numbness in his extremities but never lost movement. If he was paralyzed at ANY moment he wouldn't have played the next week.

Right, but you implied that the injury wasn't serious enough to keep him out. You don't think Flozell wanted to be out there? After the 1st playoff win of his career? You're also implying that Flozell isn't "tough" for sitting out a "calf" injury. Neither you or I are doctors and for this reason exactly.

I implied that because that's how it looked. I never saw him need help off the field and then he was standing around on the sideline. Could be serious, could be nothing. We don't know but given what I saw, I didn't like it.

Call it what you want. Misguided or whatever, I'll take that and really don't care.

My bad. Point still stands. All around the league are guys who play through pain and injuries.

I remember Derrick Mason playing against Dallas with a separated or dislocated shoulder and he still took Henry to the woodshed a few years ago.

'Yeagermeister" is right on....game was OVER when Flo went down. Ironic, as much as cowboys "fans" want to replace him. Free was horrible too, although not his fault as he played RT most of the season. When both tackles get hurt....how many teams are gonna be in a playoff game? Unmitigated disaster, but it's often times a game of attrition this time of year. That's why the Colts, Saints and Vikes look like geniuses right now. Rested, ready and they all won easily.

He was decent last week but maybe that was adrenaline or whatever- he did not have it this week. Not that Free looked all that great either.

who didnt know he wasnt gonna be a 100 percent and rust free

there was no way he couldve been in game shape after all that tine missed

free shouldve remained the starter and it cost us early in the game as colombo was being beat consistently

flo got hurt which wouldve caused him to have to play anyway but those early drives he helped kill really hurt us and got us off to a rough start
