What's the issue with rushing into the operation? Normally, you wait a day or two to let swelling go down. Ice the injury, take antiinflammatories, etc. The reason for this is... I have no idea, it's just the normal procedure. But I think it being a compound fracture explains why that wasn't the way they did it today. Probably don't want to leave the bone exposed any longer than necessary. 2

What I saw of the first half was some of the dullest football I've watched recently. The second half was fun though.

(as someone who has had a lot of surgery) You want the swelling to go down because it makes it easier to put things back together. If you do it while it's still swollen, things could settle wrong as the injured tissues goes back to normal size. But yeah, if he's got bone sticking out that needs to be taken care of ASAP or you run the risk of massive infections leading to amputations. 1
RIPPA Posted October 12, 2020 Posted October 12, 2020 Raheem Morris will serve as the Falcons interim HC 1
BrianS81177 Posted October 12, 2020 Posted October 12, 2020 Glad to see Raheem get another shot, even if it is just an interim gig 1
RIPPA Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 Titans had no new positives this morning so the game tonight is on
RIPPA Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 This is from the Daily News so treat it as such but the Jets are trying to trade Le'Veon Bell
RIPPA Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 Because the city of New Orleans won't allow them to have fans at games - the Saints are talking with LSU about possibly having their home games their instead.
Serious Darius Bagfelt Posted October 14, 2020 Posted October 14, 2020 Poor LeVeon thought he could hold out then cash in. He winds up losing the years franchise tag salary then signs with the Jets for a lower guarantee than he would have got from Pittsburgh's offer. In the NFL get your money when you can especially in the era of low values for running backs 2
