Lori Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Doesn't completely jibe with what Chris Brown is saying: http://www.buffalobills.com/blog/index.jsp?post_id=3878Today Posted By: Chris Brown | Time: 9:35 AM ET EDWARDS NOT PARTICIPATING: Trent Edwards is not participating in practice after suffering a thigh bruise last night. He's watching from beneath the goal posts and is wearing sweatpants.
GG Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Oh no, now we have a Bills beat reporter controversy.
Saint Doug Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 I'm a Tent follower, but he really needs to HTFU. There are players (RBs) who get the snot hit out of them on every play and they don't cry about every little bump and bruise.
ieatcrayonz Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Doesn't completely jibe with what Chris Brown is saying: He's watching from beneath the goal posts and is wearing sweatpants. I wonder if the sweatpants are part of his new balcony fashion 08 line.
tennesseeboy Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 i Played safety and reciver with a very similr injury to Trent my entire junior year. It was uncomfortable but once i was moving the adreneline made me forget the pain. Take a few days off and he'll be fine I played in the air force and had that injury early in the season. I gutted it out the remainder of the season and was in pain for months after. I played defensive end. If I had it to do over I'd have taken some time to get better. I imagine the Bills have enough sense (and a little time at this point in the preseason) to allow him to heal.

To quote AI, "We're talking about practice. I mean listen, we're sitting here talking about practice, not a game, not a game, not a game, but we're talking about practice." And in practice, you do sit out with little bumps and bruises, so it's not an issue for game time!
Ish Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Further update: Jauron's calling it a quad contusion, and Lynch did ice his knee after practice. you mean Lynch Knee'd his ice

Take a few days off and he'll be fine So when the ball was in the air, if you caught it, was it a reception or an interception??
ricojes Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Buffalo News story, "Trent Edwards is just a spectator at practice today with a leg injury"
stuckincincy Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Further update: Jauron's calling it a quad contusion, and Lynch did ice his knee after practice. I had two of 'em when I was a kid. Figure on a good week of hobbling.
AKC Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Another hit and run for Lynch...where does it end? It's rumored he had no idea he ran into TE, but he's not talking to reporters about it. His lawyer has scheduled a press conference to follow the Indy game on Sunday.
Kelly the Dog Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 It's rumored he had no idea he ran into TE, but he's not talking to reporters about it. His lawyer has scheduled a press conference to follow the Indy game on Sunday. Actually, it's quite true that Marshawn rarely is stopped or goes down after the first hit. It usually takes 2-3. That's what makes him great. If his coaches had told him to just go down when he is hit, like, say, Anthony Thomas or Peerless Price, he probably would have stopped for the girl.

If his coaches had told him to just go down when he is hit, like, say, Anthony Thomas or Peerless Price, he probably would have stopped for the girl. I always figured it was the coaching that caused the decline in A Train's production. Probably tools around in a little American car on top of it.
Steely Dan Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 lolI was listening to Gil Brandt yesterday on Sirius and he was talking about Trent. He was one of the two highest rated qb's coming out of high school. I think he said the other was Vince Young. However, during his career at Stanford was marked by continuous injuries. He really liked him otherwise. It would suck if this was his m.o. during his stay here. Edwards had NO O-line in college. He was on his back more than Cher and Madonna combined. He put on an extra 15 pounds in the offseason so hopefully that will help too. Chinese Carryout? Doesn't completely jibe with what Chris Brown is saying: I haven't seen anything about him practicing today either. WGR gets it wrong again. It's rumored he had no idea he ran into TE, but he's not talking to reporters about it. His lawyer has scheduled a press conference to follow the Indy game on Sunday.
Captain Hindsight Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 So when the ball was in the air, if you caught it, was it a reception or an interception?? Usually a INT i was a practice hero at reciever but never played there, my coach was an idiot
BUFFALOTONE Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Relax people. I had a thigh contusion once, and I returned to work the next day. Now, in fairness, I wasn't a professional athlete, I delivered Pizzas......and it wasn't the next day, it was a couple days later, and it wasn't a thigh contusion, it was a stomach virus.....but still......no worries. Post of the day!
Chicken Little Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Chicken Little Chicken Little runand hide the shy is falling. Look, pal, I don't tell you what to do, so lay off. I'm doing just fine on my own. I live for this stuff.
billybob Posted August 20, 2008 Posted August 20, 2008 Fake injury so Edwards doesn't get hurt with Walker and Chambers looking like turnstiles against Freeny and company
