Don't worry, Foggy. Dr. moontayle is here to refute Dr. White's diagnosis.

Bitch, you know that's part of the physical therapy process right? Making sure the body doesn't overcompensate in another area for the injury, thereby introducing the potential for further injury both elsewhere and at the original site? Shit isn't exactly uncommon.

Found this gif of Aaron Donald playing the read option, made me chuckle.

Somehow this made me think of him demolishing RG3 on the sidelines during the game

Yeah, I'm sort of wondering when some government entity is going to step in and label what they're doing as gambling. Only like three states actually have legalized online gambling.

If you read the fine print during the commercials it says something like "Residents of Arizona, Iowa, Louisiana, Montana or Washington are currently not eligible to participate in DraftKings contests due to cash prize restrictions in ..." blah blah blah etc. These type of sites have been somewhat under the radar until recently but with how much they're advertising now I expect other states to take notice and outlaw this form of "gambling" soon.

Supposedly Roddy White was quoted as saying he doesn't think Dez Bryant will return this season given the similarity of the injury to one Julio Jones suffered.

im no physician, but the "4-6" week timeframe claim does sound ridiculous

I broke my foot in 4 places (Calcaneus, Talus and 2 Meta-carpals) and I was putting pressure on it 6 weeks later. It's now been 12 weeks and I walk with a slight limp and I can't really plant on it. His injury is no where near as severe as mine was but I think 4-6 weeks is still praying for the best and 8-10 seems much more reasonable.

Fadaar · Sep 17, 2015

So what you're saying is he'll be back just in time to make the playoffs and then lose in round 1?

jooka · Sep 17, 2015

Wasn't it Jerry who mad the original 4-6 weeks claim anyway?

Do you even know how many weeks are in a season?

moontayle · Sep 17, 2015

He's from Georgia. They don't number good down there.

Convo · Sep 17, 2015

Dallas season sounds over.

Joeboo · Sep 17, 2015

I think the Chiefs beat Denver tonight. Peyton Manning probably hung on one year too long, his arm seems to have really dropped off this year.

Peyton is 13-1 against the Chiefs all-time though. He has their number

Denver's D will have to carry the day more than KC's D does. Of course with an actual elite QB in his prime on the other side that's no easy task for the donkeys.

Chiefs Quarterback Alex Smith has been dominating over every other NFL team but the Denver Broncos. So is he cursed?

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback has a score to settle with Denver, too. Because if it wasn't for the reigning AFC West champs, Big No. 11 would be putting up borderline Hall-of-Fame numbers.

Against non-Broncos opposition, Alex Smith is 20-7 as a Kansas City Chiefs starter in the regular season - a clip of .740, or the equivalent of going 12-4 every year.

Versus non-Denver competition, Big No. 11 as a Chiefs boasts a completion rate of 63.9 percent (545 for 853), 38 touchdown tosses, 11 interceptions, and a sparkling passer rating of 93.6.

And to give that 93.6 a little perspective, consider this: If that number was Smith's career rating, it would place him eighth among active NFL quarterbacks, nestled in between Ben Roethlisberger's 93.9 and Matt Ryan's 91.1...

Elite Alex

Gravy · Sep 17, 2015

It'll be an interesting game since both teams are coming off relatively short rests. The only advantage I see is that its at Arrowhead, but that doesn't seem to bother Manning so I'll go 50/50.

Slaythe · Sep 17, 2015

Is that Hall of Fame remark satire or does the author of that article have downs?

zzeris · Sep 17, 2015

I really feel that KC finally pulls out from under the curse of Manning and Denver as well. Of course they will probably prove me wrong tonight but I think they take this one. 21-17 KC.

zombiewizardhawk · Sep 17, 2015

Keys to victory for KC: Give the ball to Charles!

Rengak · Sep 17, 2015

The Texans have already changed QB's. Who knew that a Browns reject was a bad choice for a starter? Then again, it's not like the backups are any better.

In other words, if you take out the four worst performances out of 30, your QB rating is really good....
