Over 29 years of fanhood Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 On 8/19/2018 at 3:41 PM, Brianmoorman4jesus said: Now we will dick around not getting another QB in here in time and we will be playing Petterman or Allen in parts of preseason games that are very dangerous. Having to have Petterman innthere in the 4th quarter of that last game was careless. We need just a nobody that we can stick in there. Once Mccarron got hurt, Petterman became very important. Then he was sent out behind a line that was dangerous in situations that could have really hurt our season. People can get hurt at any time - I’m shocked if they don’t bring in another arm now. But I suspect next weeks game will have starters in there most of the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Buffalo Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Hairline Fxs are hard to diagnose. The clavicle is one of the last bones to fully fuse... around age 21. He could still be very sore, bone bruise etc. Assuming he had a high res CT scan after the xray with bone window that would give a more definitive answer with respect to the nature of the trauma. Lots of ligaments and muscles in the chest and shoulder attach to the clavicle. As well newly fused growth plates can look like fractures. He is not that old. Bone window in CT with 3d post processing can better id if indeed a fracture or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With playing Sunday, he may be able to take some snaps in the game if he’s back by say, Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTBill Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I suspect there was something said before the question period. Contract stuff is totally not McD's area - so maybe that's why it was treated that way? Or - maybe McD talked to Sal before the conference about it - and McD said no comment - then it was asked in public and that's why he got the reaction? I suspect things like injury settlements are probably taboo to talk about - especially if they have not been done yet? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) It must not be a bad bruise then...I bruised the bottom of my foot playing baseball as a kid from stepping on a bat after it wasn't cleared out of the way from home plate and it was excruciatingly painful...could not even have my foot touch the ground for almost 2 weeks and was on crutches... McCarron's injury must not be as severe or they must have some super high tech treatments available for him...otherwise he isn't practicing til week 1...and by that point the QB competition is done.

The whole thing is odd . . . especially since Sal (perhaps because he is paid by the Bills as a sideline reporter for the radio broadcasts) seems to make sure to always paint McBeane in a favorable light.

YoloinOhio Posted August 21, 2018 Author Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) Did the X-ray seem to show a hairline fracture? Did reporters (and their sources) just get it wrong? Perhaps the truth is somewhere in the middle. Sometimes a vessel or angle on X-ray can lead to suspicion of a tiny non-displaced crack, and then days later a follow-up MRI, CT scan or X-ray shows the truth. So one possibility is that the initial test showed something that gave the medical staff cause to believe there was a fracture and a source jumped the gun with reporters. (It is better for medical staffs to be cautious and investigate all possibilities.) Certainly, the Bills public relations staff could have corrected any early misinformation — if there was any. But, then again, the team did not officially address the injury in the first place. (Remember, there is no mandatory injury reporting in the preseason.) Whatever happened, it appears to be good news for McCarron. Players should win or lose their jobs on the field, not because someone is in the training room.

Yeah I was on 3rd base and it was a medium fly ball to the outfield with one out so I was tagging and I had to run hard...throw got cut off by pitcher but I wasn't really paying attention in front of me I was looking sideways and I turned my head back and it was too late I was already in mid air and stepped right on it...that hurt bad lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reaction seemed gratuitous and odd. I think it must have been that he didn't wanna get into it because he was still fuming about the hit. That was what it looked like to me. If it was just he didn't want to talk injury settlement he would surely have just said "I don't want to get into that right now." I think he was trying to avoid talking about the hit because he was gonna blow up if he did. It was dirty and might have ruined that kid's chance to ever play pro football. EDIT: I should also say that you hear him call out to Sal when he leaves the podium at the end before the feed switches off. So I am guessing they sorted their differences straight away. I used to do soccer press conferences in my previous life and Manchester City at the time were managed by a guy who would combust at a question almost every week. He would always make a point of coming up to you at the start of the next week and apologising. But then he'd explode again at someone else that week. Was just who he was. Odd thing with Sean is it does not seem to be his style, so something made him really angry. I think it was the hit, not the question itself.
