Training Camp Practice Monday, August 9 (10 am)


Recommended Posts


Honestly - the way they monitor these guys - the players may not have been as bothered as some data they were monitoring gave a warning and the trainers had them sit out.

 

The week prior to the Miami game - I remember the staff talking about extra hydration all week to get them hydrated.  It was a week of getting them ready for the temps and the humidity and then still having to give a few guys IVs to replenish the fluids.

 

During training camp - they are hydrating, but losing fluids everyday - so they never build up the excess.  My guess is that is what you were seeing today.  Hot and humid - taking breaks and getting off the field for protection.  Hope everyone is alright!

 

Contrast this back to High School ball with 2 or 3 a days in this heat and few water breaks - I can’t believe more of us didn’t collapse.

Good to see Sanders is back and picking up his connection with Allen right where he left off. I continue to believe that Sanders will be a major upgrade over John Brown.

Oh he is he was arguably the Niners best receiver two years ago and he was the Saints best receiver last year

Not trying to be snarky, but how hot could is possibly be in Buffalo right now?

 

We play in Miami, Week 2.

 

 

You're right, but acclimation is a thing. Some heat in August is good, particularly if they need to go South in September, which they do.

Yeah I get the concern some have with his age, but he won't be the focal point of our offense. This offense is built for elite route running and I think he is a better route runner than John Brown. With Diggs and Beasley and Sanders on the field defenses are going to have a tough time stopping one of them getting open.

I hear Buffalo is very humid this time of year

I just got back from a week up there to the sweatshop humidity here in Carolina - is definitely a "dry" heat in comparison

good learning lesson to likely need to hydrate more the nite before practice or esp the early-season Miami game...


 

I have heard the Bills trainers talk about this before - to actually be effective in hydrating for a game in Miami - they need to start 5 days before the game at minimum.  Trying to do it the night before can actually cause more problems because your body will eliminate most of the excess water and create a potential net loss.

 

They give the guys individual plans - on how much to drink and to spread it out so that they maintain fluid levels as much as possible - even with that - they still get guys going down with cramps and needing IVs.

 

The worse thing is to plan or practice at one temp and then get these super hot/humid days sort of by surprise and they have not got the added hydration plan in place - I think that was what today was - Hot following their Saturday practice in the stadium - where the turf makes it worse.

Sal capaccio actually passed out from the heat on Saturday.
