He's gonna have to play with that robotic arm looking thing that Demeco played with last year. I hope it doesn't reduce his production

Geez. Another freaking injury already. Glad it's only a dislocation. We need that beast on the field.
I'm sure he could play if we had a game next week, but they are going to shut down anyone that gets any sort of significant injury until week 1.
i've learned to take any of kubiak's injury updates with a grain of salt. they don't seem accurate (truthful) all that often. he has mastered the downplay.
I don't listen to the station but I get text message updates from 610. Just text "Flash" to 61026. I got the text around 10:45 this morning abbot this. We'll be alright guys.
Would've been 3rd in the line of Texans to sport that giant elbow cast Student of Shanahan = smokescreens and downplays
You can stop it now Kubiak, theatricality and deception only work to the uninitiated...and we are initiated
So you guys think its worse than Kubiak is letting on? Dislocated elbows can be pretty serious.. Months out of action/permanent loss of range of motion
Nope....he'll be starting in the first game. Hope they don't play many of the starters much the whole preseason, though.
I hate training camp. I'm not sure what to replace it with, but I strongly believe the current system is bad for the players and bad for the game.
