ASCI Posted September 28, 2005 Share Posted September 28, 2005 If it makes cap sense, TKO will be gone at the end of next season Firsts some realities: 1) Spikes is in his 8th year. 2) Most pros lose a step by their 8th to 10th year. 3) In an injury like this most lose flexibility not only at the foot but the whole leg. 4) Flexibility is key in body quickness and avoiding future injury. Now I take out my crystal ball: TKO comes back to play for Bills next season after taking it easy during camp and preseason. By the first few games it becomes apparent that he has lost a step and is very average. Spikes will be nagged with playable injuries all season long like hamstring and groin and possibly back. At the end of next season TKO will be traded or cap axed at an appropriate time that saves Bills $. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gross Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Thanks everyone (including myself) for the "best Bills' LB ever" talk. Didn't we learn after we started saying that about Cowart? About Spielman? We're lucky TSW wasn't around in the early '90's or else we would have lost the whole starting LB corps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tux of Borg Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Try: la la la la la la la la. 458225[/snapback] Haven't seen old school yet? I think it will be TKO's call if he wants to stay or go. If the team has its stevestojan together, i bet he stays and tries to win a championship.

Men like TKO, McGahee, Julian Peterson, etc... thrive on adversity like this when most others would quit just hearing about the length and intensity of the impending physical rehab process. If you ask me, this would be more fuel for the fire that is TKO's will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASCI Posted September 29, 2005 Author Share Posted September 29, 2005 The most common cause of Achilles tendon tears is a problem called tendinitis, a degenerative condition caused by aging or overuse. When a tendon is weakened, trauma can cause it to rupture. Achilles tendon injuries are common in middle-aged "weekend warriors" who may not exercise regularly or take time to stretch properly before an activity. Among professional athletes, most Achilles injuries seem to occur in quick-acceleration, jumping sports like football and basketball, and almost always end the season's competition for the athlete.

Dan Gross Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Nice photoshop! 458657[/snapback] We were just talking about this kid last week because an official wouldn't let him play due to logistical reasons....even though he had already played in three games this season...

Ramius Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 How about a big hell no...we have under contract for 6 years total, which means he's got 3 years left after this year... Past his prime? Puuul-eeease! The guys 28, hes just in the peak of his career...hes not a RB who will hit the wall at 29 or 30, hes a LB who got 3-4 great years left in him... TKO stays, regardless!

TKO will be 30 next year with a major injury that will be tough for him, especially a guy who's game relies on speed too. If he goes, I can see Moulds (past his prime, too much $$$) & M Williams (under achiever, too much $$$) going too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole rebuilding process will start up again. Seems never ending…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
