Patriots Injury News Will Campbell Week 12 Injury [11/26 update: Placed on IR]

[mayoclinic]

Disagree completely, you don't turn a franchise left tackle into a guard, thats crazy. Campbell has been playing like one of the best tackles in football all season, and rookie tackles usually struggle. Go find a guard in free agency or the draft, Campbell needs to stay where he is for the next 10+ years.

1000x this.

Coming out, it wasn't 100% clear where Campbell's best position would be. Brandon Thorn, one of the best OL evaluators out there, had Campbell as his highest graded OL, but projected him to guard:

12 games into the season, that's all hogwash. Campbell has proven that he is a franchise LT, and only a fool would muck with that.

Not surprisingly it's coming from the people who didn't want him to begin with, he comes out and proves them 100% wrong and they still start bleating about moving him to guard, it's total ********. They have their franchise left tackle for the next decade, they don't need to go looking to replace him.

I had doubts about Campbell being able to be succeed at LT at the NFL level. Thrilled to be proven for the fraud that I am.

 

[imahobgoblin]

I’m one of them. Not because he’s BAD at LT, but because I believe he could be all-time elite at G. It’s not a slight on him…it’s a compliment. Few humans on earth could be a pretty decent LT AND an elite guard.

See…Onwenu, Michael as one who can’t

Or even Joe Thuney as one who could…though Thuney isn’t at Campbell’s level as a T.

I nominate this post to be a candidate for Stupidest Post of the Year.

Plenty of people had their doubts, that's fine, but now that he has proven them 100% wrong they need to recognize that and stop with talk about moving him to guard, it's idiotic.

Dunno. If we think he'd be an all-pro guard, what about center!?! He could be the greatest center...wait for it... ever!

 

[mayoclinic]

Can he rush the passer? We need some help there.

 

[ViperGTS]

This was like 2000army who never posted, but felt like posting drive by stating Tom Brady was going to re-sign. That person has not posted since.

Yep he needs to never post again rofl.

 

[Brady to Maye]

There is some real irony in the fact that many folks who said Campbell could never play LT now feel that his loss is an insurmountable hurdle. So... I guess he could play after all... eh?

You course Camobell's replacement Lowe has longer arms which makes him better than Campbell so that means we are better off anyway. lol

 

[Ross12]

I think you are off here. Under your scenario the Bills would be 13-4 and the Pats 12-5. They need to lose only 2 games not including the Jets or Dolphins to win the tiebreaker if the Bills win out.

Yeah I mistakenly was going off the idea that they are up 3 games on Buffalo but it’s only 2.5

Drake Maye runs really well, the Patriots should make him running back, and he could throw passes as a running back. He could be the greatest passing running back in history.

I heard he is so fast he can throw a 40 yard bomb, and run to catch it himself, proving Gisele wrong as it were.

But I truly don't care. I wrote the truth. An MRI is not needed to determine a knee injury. An MRI is need to determine the extent of damage. Physical tests identify the injuring quickly. Would you like to debate that? lol. Its not my fault you are too stupid to know that. You could even just google it, but nope. You are too lazy.

See, this is what you do. When you have no reply you just make up an untrue argument. I have never coached pee wee in my life, unlike your wife who sees it each night. The only think you are onto is your small man syndrome.

I’d call you a troll, but you’re worse than that. You’re a Pats fan who’s a total a-hole to other Pats fans, trying to turn a great board for the past 20+ years into a sewer. Reading over your posts, you contribute nothing positive, just one garbage spew after another.

Not your fault you listened to **** bags who said a lock down LT who played in the SEC wasn't good enough for the NFL.

I'm glad you're feeling better now. I travel for work like an absolute idiot with a ton of exhaustion/exposure to germs and I usually get sick as soon as I get home. I guess I let my guard down and the germs have their way with me. I just want to be all better for Thursday!

I just started traveling a lot (~52 trips this year) for work and it's wild how much this season has hit me. Got two different flus. Flared up my back spasm. Never realized how much plane travel and airports kick your ass.

Well, there was the suggestion during the Bengals game to sit Maye for a week so he could get his head straight. Stiff competition.

Get help with your anger issues. It is not normal to get personal with strangers on an internet messageboard.

Also…MRI IS required for proper DX confirmation. In fact insurance won’t reimburse or approve treatment without one.

But what do I know…I just own medical practices.

It's the 5 countries in 10 days kinda trips that kill me (and probably will eventually kill me). Shaking hands, eating suspect food, and my body deciding it doesn't like to sleep anymore doesn't help me a bit.

Does that count tho? It was my understanding the toxic stupidity that is the GDT was supposed to be confined there

Ah, the full Hobgoblin blast. Wondered when I would be the lucky recipient of it.

Welcome to the club.
