Low Positive Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I thought that players could come back in two months from a torn Achilles. Aaron Rodgers said it so it must be true. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think more injuries are likely to occur when you don’t practice with pads often during training camp or game week. There are too many ‘non contact’ or ‘non pad’ days. Players need time to get their bodies used to the game. Going from 0 to 100 the way they do takes proper warming up. Especially when players are becoming faster and stronger every year Edited October 11, 2023 by GETTOTHE50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmotionallyUnstable Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 (edited) Damn. Dude was out all year last season (ACL?) early in the year, and now this? Rough. Wonder what kind of impact this has on a man’s career trajectory.

LEBills Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 The players asked for grass, MetLife installed “improved synthetic turf” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see how a grass field would be feasible. Heck, it may even be more dangerous with the way a grass field can get chewed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If owners were serious about player safety rather than maximizing profit, they could make it work. But they aren’t so they won’t. One NFL game a week (none of this back to back day stuff), not accepting college games if it would pose a bad issue for the playing surface, the overlap for soccer and football seasons is pretty small. It comes down to the synthetic turfs costing less money for maintenance as you pointed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think owners want to keep their stars on the field. Jets didn't pay Rodgers to not play. Nor the Bills for White. These injuries happened on home turf too.
