I'd rather win both my bet and the Bills win. However, I'll take the Bills win and be happy. Your 'bet' looks great lol what are you talking about The line is going to end up around 15 1 1 1 Quote

K-9 Posted January 11, 2023 Posted January 11, 2023 1 minute ago, balln said: Im wondering if he just needed a small diskectomy / decompression. Would be rare and very lucky. No way he plays if fused or had a disk replacement. only thing that makes sense is simple decompression / like you see all the time in lumbar spine Does a small discectomy/decompression also involve surgery thru the front of the neck? The scar he has on his throat suggests a surgical procedure of some kind. It’s also worth noting that Micah had been dealing with this cervical disc issue since his Green Bay days, when it first appeared. I agree that if he had the ACDF there is no way he would play so soon, but he is already at the recovery period for an ADR, so that at least makes sense to me. Quote
Haze_21 Posted January 11, 2023 Posted January 11, 2023 Skylar doesnt look like he belongs in the nfl. Dude is scared to throw over 10 yards downfield and also scared to scramble with wide open holes. I dont love watching a blowout but ill take what is essentially a bye in the playoffs. . 1 Quote

I’ll wait til Sunday at 430 You know...you are correct. I never count my chickens. Buffalo is the better team and SHOULD win handily, but those Dolphins are not just going to roll over. They still have guys that can get to the passer, and great receivers and backs that gave us fits last game. Quote

I hear what you're saying, but a team with Hill and Waddle is not a bye. I'm not saying that the Bills won't win or that the game will be close, but those dudes are always a threat to take a WR screen to the house. Quote

Oh I missed that - if he has anterior incision then yea would be fusion or disc replacement. Maybe docs are lightening up on restrictions. If his fusion is completely fused. On a ct scan- could be 2-3 months. And he’s got normal exam and strength good. Why not ? No good science data on return to play in this area Quote

Hostility during the investigation process was also mentioned though. Like in National Treasure when he gets caught stealing the declaration of independence by the FBI.

No good science data on return to play in this area Actually, you may be entirely correct about the decompression procedure. I did a little cursory research and then spoke to a spinal surgeon pal of mine (he’s retired) and he said that the decompression procedure also involves a minimal surgical procedure thru the front of the neck which would also leave that scar. The best news is that the recovery period is much shorter than either the ACDF or ADR. I wish I would have looked at this sooner. Quote

Typically do decompression from back of neck 1 Quote

You might find it interesting as well. https://www.spine-care-specialists.com/minimally-invasive-cervical-decompression.html Quote
