Guys, this is classic subterfuge. BB is going all WWF on Rex Ryan, and Mayo is going to be on the sideline Sunday, rip the cast off in warmups, and start with the opening lineup.

If Mayo was going out he would have likely disappeared altogether by now. Instead he will be in every meeting and getting treatment and we'll be finding out if he's a quick or slow healer. If there is genuine doubt Bill errs on the side of moving on. He only waits on guys he's pretty confident will be back sooner than later because roster spots are too valuable week to week.

Pardon me for being sceptical, but what is the basis of your opinion that Cassel and Mayo have the "same" injury?

Now that is one optimistic statement

I don't think we'll be seeing Mayo for at least 3-4 weeks, and that would probably be in a 'best outlook' situation. It sounds like he could be back after a month/month and a half or so--and to me that's good news. I don't see Belichick wanting to rush him back prematurely, as we'll need him for the stretch run in Nov-Dec.

At least it doesn't sound like it's a season ending injury, so let's be thankful for that.

This information doesn't tell us much.

Hmmmmmmmm, Mayo is a professional athlete, probably playing the the most physically demanding sport requiring superior fitness and determination......

.......... and you are likely a fat, middle-aged dude whose primarily level of fitness revolves around typing and posting messages on a internet message
board.

For some odd reason, I do not see the two situations as remotely similar to each other.

Just saying.

i can see it now...the jets think they have us right where they want us.... ball on the 1, about to score the go ahead TD with less than a minute left, when suddenly, mayo comes running out to whatever his theme song is holding a steel chair and whacks mark sanchez on the head, then lays-eth the smacketh down on the rest of the Jets' candy asses.

yeah. it would be really cool if that happened.

I wouldn't take this lightly. Rocky Mountain spotted fever can be dangerous.
