ColoradoBills Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I am a fan of the Buffalo Bills. My hope is the Bills enter each game as healthy as possible. The health of the opponents is the concern of their fans, not mine. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Landing Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I'm not happy about this at all, on any level. Stafford seems like a really decent guy who languished in Detroit for 12 years, and finally got to lead a decent team. I will be at the Bills at Rams game, and I would very much like to see the Bills beat them in a competitive game with Stafford at the helm. I want to see the Bills beat the Super Bowl champs.

MJS Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 4 hours ago, JerseyBills said: Ya but I'm just curious how we would have fared vs them in particular. If Stafford does miss time , we can't evaluate that. Plus the game would lose some of its aura. This is a huge game , first time in my lifetime the Bills kicked off the season and I want their starting QB available I don't need any more measuring stick games. We know the Bills are good. Everyone knows they are Superbowl contenders. Just get to the game and win it.  Plus, this isn't what the matchup would have looked like in the Superbowl last year if the Bills had gotten there. Both teams are different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had mine for over a year before I went to the orthopedist who told me it would get better in time. I said, "time? IT'S BEEN A YEAR!" He just nodded and said, "yep. It takes a while. We only operate on these about 1% of the time and there has to be a full rupture and lack of stability in the joint before we even think about it." He gave me a prescription for dry needle therapy (which I never did). About 3 months later it cleared up. It still comes back once in a while though. I'm currently dealing with a flare up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a gym rat for a long time and think the overtraining got to me. Its better than it was but when I push a tennis ball into my elbow I feel pretty terrible pain. It feels like something needs to be flushed out of that joint, it just doesn't feel normal compared to the other side. I still can't even do 1 dip because the pain is so bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 (edited) Sources describe it as "bad tendonitis"...I would have to say his week 1 availability is in doubt and even if he plays he will likely be less than 100%. Â They have the best of the best in terms of treatments and medical staff and trainers looking at it and working on it 24/7 so perhaps my experiences with it would be a lot different and would have healed much quicker if I had the same, but I don't see how he is back to normal by week 1...

JakeFrommStateFarm Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I had tendinitis in my left heel above near my achilles. I went to see an orthopedic surgeon.  He told me he couldn't do much for me. The achilles was not torn. He gave me some anti inflammatory medication and a soft boot.  He told me to wear the boot for 3 months. I did what he said and the pain went away.  I think if anyone is who is suffering from any tendinitis the key would be to immobilize the the arm (by wearing a sling) or foot for long periods of time and take ibuprofen or an anti inflammatory when the pain flares up.  He told me when you used the arm or foot too early, you start the healing process all over again.  HTH. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will never do another pull-up as long as I live now.  The third and most recent time I seriously messed up my rotator cuff I was playing some of the best tennis of my life. I was playing so well, I didn’t want to mess it up so I started hitting the gym on a regular basis.  I soon found myself at the doctor’s office while he reviewed my MRI. He wanted to know about my exercise routine, and he stopped me when I got to the military press. He said something like “Nobody should ever do that! It will wreck your shoulders!” To which I responded “then why is the equipment in the gym owned by the hospital? The hospital where you work and operate and where I just had my MRI?”  Working out sounds like a good idea, but it’s also a potential problem.   .

Rams field a great starter group, but depth is pretty poor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royale with Cheese Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I used to get tendinitis all the time when I played baseball.  It really sucks.  You rest it for awhile and then starts feeling better….no pain.  But usually comes back a few times in the season.  It won’t ever fully go away unless you rest it for a very long time.  But with the treatments Stafford is getting, it’ll probably just nag him a lot this season but I don’t think it’ll prevent him to play.  Probably just limit throwing during practice. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
