I think it is better Mac Jones plays against the Bills because I know Mac Jones isn’t any good. The unknown would concern me more as a Bills fan. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo Because he's the starting QB on a team in our division that we play twice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By all accounts it was a severe high ankle sprain. Here he is 2 weeks later all taped up and trying to give it a go. Coincidentally or not, it is also the week after a rookie steps on the field and had a pretty solid showing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People act like it's some sign of weakness if you pay attention to how other teams/players are doing (outside of Fantasy). It's normal, basically just the fan version of scouting. Side Note: I actually kind of like Mac Jones. Not like rooting for him or thinking he's a great QB, just that he's been showing some personality & passion lately, both of which I appreciate (especially from that typically lifeless organization 😆) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beck Water Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 (edited) On 9/27/2022 at 10:12 AM, SlimShady'sSpaceForce said: there is nothing to do for a sprain but rest. unless there is a fracture That's not true on a couple counts. A strain is a tear to muscles. A severe muscle strain with considerable tearing to the muscle may require surgery A sprain is a tear to ligaments. If there's a significant enough tear or rupture to any ligaments, it can require surgery for the best return to function. Specifically, a "high ankle sprain" is a sprain to the syndesmosis membrane and tibiofibular ligaments which holds the lower leg bones, tibia and fibula, together, and stabilizes them to the talus. This is the primary ankle joint responsible for up and down movements (dorsiflexion and plantarflexion) of the foot. Orthopedists came up with a specific surgery for high ankle sprains, a "Tightrope procedure", that may allow more rapid return to athletic activity: https://www.footankledc.com/news/what-is-tightrope-surgery/109 Tua has had this on at least one ankle and Zack Moss had it in the 2021 off season after he suffered a high ankle sprain against the Colts. He was not the same the following season (2021) but reported being recovered this season - but the usual idea is it turns an 8 week recovery into a 4 week or so. https://www.buffalorumblings.com/2021/1/20/22240345/buffalo-bills-injury-analysis-zack-mosss-ankle-surgery Edited October 6, 2022 by Beck Water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I fully understand that QBs get hit and injured in passing situations and in the pocket. I'm fine with him running in critical situations in tough games like today's. There is risk of injury on every snap. A QB running the ball increases that risk. If Allen goes down, so does the season. Maybe we shouldn’t play him at all. Eliminate the risk altogether.

Always terrible to see someone get hurt, particularly an athlete who makes a living with their body. It sucks if I hurt my ankle but I can still do my desk job (I know he still gets paid, but it is his vocation and if it's a serious injury it could impact his career). well - he’ll get better. And when the time comes, he’ll be relegated to the bench holding a clipboard as a backup, safe from the rigors of being a starting NFL QB. Hey, at least he got the opportunity.

Mac Jones has mid-level NFL starter written all over him and as such he is the perfect QB for New England's system. As @PatsFanNH noted (to the chagrin to so many here), BB doesn't want an Allen or a Mahomes because their drive to make plays can result in mistakes. Mac Jones doesn't do anything splashy, but he also doesn't make a lot of mistakes. And as his ability to read coverages pre-snap evolves, he'll make even fewer mistakes. Brady in many ways, at least in NE, was like that. The only thing that Brady ever did to make your jaw drop was come up huge in clutch moments. But he did that by being consistent and making the right reads, not by making spectacular plays due to immense physical gifts like Allen, Mahomes or Lamar Jackson. 1 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
