in a year from now, he will wish he had that money back

Get OVER it man

i seriously would sign him and dump this punter in a HEART BEAT. the guy is still punt god that can help you turn the field. Bring him back.

Does "general theory of relativity" play into this at all?

yea, I wish no injuries or health issues on any one. I want their best team on the field so when we crush them, there will be no excuses

good stuff. its a great conversation to have. And to be honest, Everyone does heal differently and not every ACL surgery is the same. Some people come out of Minor ACL surgery and have way more movement than the DR. thought they would have. Other ACL surgeries just don't go the greatest and it takes longer time to heal. Only time will tell if/when he comes back but that short video he made makes me more optimistic

its not a stupid question and yes, some are way worse than others.

this makes me feel better about all of this.

ESPECIALLY high impact players

oh maybe

checkmate

your acting like 33 is young for NFL standards. its not he will be 34 if/when he plays again. and that contract size has lots to do with this as well.

its clauses in the current contract concerning injuries. many times, you hear it going to courts concerning settlements. it is what it is.

I said it COULD BE a career ender.

age. Age is the factor and that contract.

I am 10000000% convinced this OL is better blocking the run than pass block. Shifting our gameplan to the run was the right move. I am not saying Josh still wont have 400 throwing yard games BUT, we are not killing the clock like we did by throwing. I once thought we could kill the clock like this just by a ton of short throws. death by 1000 needles.. Defenses are to good and mistakes happen to often in todays NFL to do it.

He wont have a choice. Settlements happen every year no matter the size of the contract. Von will not have a choice but to settle on an agreement. THATS how this works.

stop fooling yourself. that was 9 years ago and von in football years is OLD for this type of injury

Contract? will be null and voided if this is a career ender and a settlement will be made to let go of von. Paying Von that much to sit out the rest of this year and most of next year? nope. i dont see it happening

this is my point. The cap this frees up for our future will be immense do to an injury settlement that does NOT affect the cap like people think it does

HEY AJ played well last game

YES an injury settlement that does not affect the cap as much as people think it does

i agree

I think we are all missing some points of interest here. #1. This could be a career ender, especially if this is a full tear #2. GM's make deals with even the best of players to part ways do to injuries that does not affect the cap as much as people think. #3. Von Effect is here in buffalo forever. Von made our young DL players MUCH MUCH better. They learned from here and that will be the gift that keeps giving. The future is bright for what we have. Oliver, Edmunds, AJ, Rousseau.. they all playing better because of what they learned. Von gave this defense the killer attitude. this will never go away
