McD wouldn't make these type of comments if it wasn't serious.

 

Very concerning for an oline that looked as bad as they did against the Steelers. 🤢🤮

Well, first, unless someone on the training staff has told him it isn't serious, this is exactly the kind of comment he always makes.  All he said is, "I don't know.  We'll see.  He always errs on the side of saying he doesn't know. 

 

Second, the oline didn't look bad against the Steelers.   There was some concern about how the tackles played, although most of the commentary after film review was that the tackles weren't as bad as people thought.   The guards played very well, including McGovern's backup.  

 

So, sure, any injury to any starter is concerning.   But everything suggests that this injury isn't serious, and that the available backups are good players.  

 

Suggesting that this injury, based on this information is "very concerning" doesn't make sense.

He banged knees with another player.  Told a reporter from The Buffalo News after practice he wasn’t concerned.  I think this means he sits out for a week and then gets ready for the Jests.

 

Is that what it is?  I agree I think is he misses time it won't be much at all.

I heard McDermott has decided to use dramatic words like “ concern” in pressers, and afterwards come on this forum for a light read and a good chuckle,

Yes. Bates is a huge asset to this team.

The coach often doesn't know much of anything until he is briefed later. He likely did not know anything at the time of his statement.

But critically, it is not “Very Concerning”.  I forget what color goes with this level of concern, but it’s not Panic Purple.

Wait what? All he said was we'll see and he doesn't know.  Don't see how that equates to a bad or long term injury 

 

It would suck considering he got 100% of snaps at LG

Yes, he was very briefly well behaved at first on his return, but predictably he is ramping up to full out obnoxious regular season form.
