Less so the punctured lung and moreso the broken rib. Although if they could've diagnosed the broken rib, he would've certainly been pulled due to the possibility of lung damage, I'd think.

holyghost Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 I don't understand why anyone loves this, and knew the first thing stated would be how tough he was. This is a 34-3 loss. A punctured lung can in severe cases, kill you. He's a rookie. The stupid idea, and it's nothing but stupid, can affect what could be a long and productive career which would benefit him and the team equally. Rehabilitate, shut it down for the year, and build NFL level musculature for next year to protect the body better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A simple chest X ray can show a punctured lung. Its also how broken ribs are most commonly diagnosed 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they let him return? Not really something you’d immediately suspect if the guy is *seemingly* as okay as Renfrow was. Similar thing happened to Romo years ago against the Niners - finished the game and played the following week. Obviously it’s case by case and what’s required of a WR is more physically demanding - so the recovery/plan will likely be different - but I’m not ready to throw much shade at the doctors for this one. I doubt Renfrow even realized, broken ribs (short of some major collision, like in a car accident) are easy to overlook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinSting Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Clobber a WR before the ball even arrives, yeah that might cause an injury. Did Chucky throw the PI challenge flag? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed on the indignation, in principle. But firing them I think overlooks the real root of the problem. I would assume with 98% certainty they are still deeply entrenched in the "rub some dirt on it" mentality even if they are supposed to be in the medical care profession. And whoever replaces them would be too. You can't be "anti-tough" in football. Unfortunately that often means you have to be mostly stupid. It doesn't really have to be that way, but it almost always is. Not many bridges between the two or any other dichotomy in today's world. Firing them is cutting off a hydra's head in my mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
