TecmoSuperJoe Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Jake Delhomme had that TJ surgery. Said his arm felt "better than ever" afterward. But he had a 9 month jump before training camp started I think. Brock wouldn't have that luxury if he does indeed need full surgery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had us on a number of those today, too.” Shanny on Kroft's block of Reddick This true? I don't pay close attention to the blockers on PA passes so idk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have a Dwayne Carswell, Jason Dunn, or Don Warren that can be our backup tight end who is also good at pass blocking.

TecmoSuperJoe Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Also, I know Jimmy was riding a scooter like a week ago, but damn I would have taken my chances compared to Josh Johnson. My gawd he was hideous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That dude has a nice arm and you could have run those RPO's with easily with Deebo or Coleman. There was no good option after Johnson got hurt but I'd have much preferred that over Purdy just handing it over every time or throwing the occasional screen pass. What the hell? Lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bad news is that if he has tjs, he's probably out two years and his career has a good shot at being over How do you figure? Tommy John isn’t nearly the recovery as it used to be even for pitchers. Football throwing motion isn’t nearly as stressful on the ulnar ligament as well. I wouldn’t be shocked if he could be back for the start of the season if it’s standard Tommy John, but it kind of throws out the training camp competition.

The motion is different, the mechanism is different. QBs who hurt the ucl almost never opt to get the surgery if they can help it. Results have been meh, though not many. Delhomme was able to come back and start, but was never the same. Big Ben supposedly didn't have it tjs, but had something similar because of three tendons off the bone. That's when he turned into guy who throws everything at the los. It ended Rob Johnson and Craig Erickson's career.Guys like Carson Palmer chose to avoid it. If he has tjs, I don't think you'll find many people that will be super hopeful moving forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I'd think of tjs for a QB similar to turn patellar tendon for most other positions. Sometimes it will be fine, but it's going to kill a number of careers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straighthate Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I just don’t think it happens in football that often so the sample size is small. But the use of the elbow is so much less stressful for a QB than a pitcher and pitchers come back pretty much every time now. The fact that guys can even avoid it tells you it’s not as serious as for a pitcher. I had it 25 years ago and was back to close to 100% in 6 months. Niners medical staff hopefully is better than the college one I had (although I’m not super confident in that team) and the science is so much better now. I just don’t see it as a two year deal by any means and am hopeful he’ll be back for the start of the season. But yeah, sample size is so small on QBs it’s tough to predict.

Forge Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 My guess is that he won't need tjs and can get through it with rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TecmoSuperJoe Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 (edited) Such a crazy freak injury. Some quarterbacks, probably most that are able to play for years, and years never suffer that type of injury. Shanahan now has had two quarterbacks in the last few years to get get that kiss of death. Edited January 30, 2023 by TecmoSuperJoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
