billsintaiwan Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Pretty sure he didn't rub any dirt on it. That's the first and most critical step in the rehabilitation process. Hopefully he has already apologized to everyone he has hurt. Slight chance at being ready for the super bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideNine Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 When Milano gets back we will have some quality depth at the LB position where there was a lot ??? early in the season and I thought we were thin. The taking heads and media pundants were all preaching doom and gloom with Edmunds' departure in FA and that the Bills would struggle with an unproven Bernard. Both Dodson and Bernard have come on strong. 6 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taron is one of the best nickle defenders in the game. I would be reluctant to replace his skillset with any linebacker we have even if I trust that LB in shallow zones or skating with a RB or TE. There are times when subbing bigger bodies should be done to match more heavy 12 personnel/run packages. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicharito Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 I broke my tibial plateau in a motor cycle accident 9 years ago. I didn’t have any ligament damage either. I did however have a steel plate and 7 screws put in. It’s a long road to get back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just a scrimmage, and I limped for the rest of the year. I had no idea it was broken but I limped into the office of Dr Joyce, the Braves Doc who operated on the foot of my other leg. He said I had the wrong limp, sent me down for X-rays, and I got to tell my English teacher/trainer that the reason taping it higher didn’t work was….. I HAVE A BROKEN LEG! Who is the weenie now? OK, I feel better. Thank you for saving me the cost of therapy. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 I got hit by a car and had the same injury many years ago. An old lady waved me in front of her and then accelerated. It was good thing I rolled out of collision. Took the whole summer to heal and then rehab well into the fall. Didn't need to run at full speed and absorb contact, but think I coulda played mens league hockey if it was a crucial game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beck Water Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) 2 hours ago, Dablitzkrieg said: From the TBN article Trimble quotes: A key point here for all the "it'll heal in 8 weeks, why isn't he back?" folks, Milano confirms that he was prohibited to put any weight at all on the leg for 8 weeks, to avoid putting stress on the Tibial plateau. As often, Bangedup's article linked above gives a good explanation of what this is, why it's tricky, and why a prolonged period of no weight bearing is needed.

flomoe Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 I know he’s been on the sideline and walking around, but this injury takes at least 3-4 months for the bone to heal around the steel rod/screws that was most likely inserted into the bone. From that point, there’s a couple of months of rehab and learning how to walk again. The closer to the knee the break is, the trickier the speed of the recovery. He should be starting light treadmill work, maybe stairs but this isn’t a 4-6 week injury. Also, if anyone knows a surgeon who does this, inquire how this surgery is performed, it’ll explain why those surgeons are all very jacked. It’s not pretty!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, it didn't really address it at all, other than maybe the part about having a completely normal offseason of training if you infer it from that.
