Default Bruschi to play in week 1...I don't like it
Sorry if this was posted before, but I looked and didn't see anything.

According to Foxsports.com national football writer John Czarnecki, Tedy Bruschi will be ready for opening day Sept. 10 against Buffalo.
Boston Herald

After doing some research I found that the scaphoid bone can take anywhere from 6-15 to fully heal and it is indeed career threatning. Why is there any rush to get him back and risk losing him for the year or his career? I know, I should trust his doctors but they aren't always right and I worry for Tedy.

No offense, but I'd rather trust doctors who deal with those injuries on a daily basis over 5 minutes of scaphoid research you did. Again, no offense.

If it is risking further damage, he won't play. And if it isn't he'll play.

So you're suggesting we should take your word for it? If we can't trust his doctors, we most certainly can't trust your research. I think the doctors treating him have a little bit more credibility than all of us here combined.

We had the same issue last year after his stroke. Bruschi is NOT going to endanger his career by coming back too soon.

who really cares if you like it or not? the only opinion that matters are the doctors.

I'm missing something here. Czarnecki talked to his doctors?

Then where do we get "doctors say it's OK to play after 4 weeks"?

Edit: original poster said something about doctors.

Whoever did the surgery or whatever, I haven't read a doctors statement.
