Official Preseason ( Week 1) Gameday Thread: Saints @ Patriots

[woolster22]

Something popped, either forearm break or some kind of connective tissue tear in his elbow. His whole forearm by his elbow seemed to blow up as he tried to keep himself up. Definitely not something minor per the replay I just slow motioned.

I'll hope for the best.

If that's severe, Hogan better be atleast decent.

 

[Love The Drake]

Mitchell can play

 

[manxman2601]

One positive, Jimmy has looked much more positive in this 2Q

* Googles "dislocated elbow recovery time" *

And that is why Blount infuriates me. Just pound the ****ing rock like a big back should and he probably gets the first but instead he ****y foots and is dropped for a loss.

Not a doctor, but looked more like a dislocation than a break for Mitchell. We'll see

 

[Brady_to_Moss]

We draft a WR that shows great promise..and he just broke his arm/elbow

 

[Love The Drake]

I think Belichick was more excited about Mitchell then he lead on.
With the he's no Deon branch that saints player jag injured him hope he's not out long.

 

[heavyde050]

I hope Mitchell is okay. He looked really good to me.

Someone find some deer antler spray, quick!

Is anyone's wife being shipped HGH for fertility use from a shady anti-aging clinic right now? If so, please call BB right away!

replay reminded me of the Seattle dback injury in the Super Bowl

You can't pound into the hole that is called if it isn't blocked well.
Doesn't make sense to run into a defender in the hole.

 

[PatsBoy12]

What kills me is I'm sure Mitchell would have been some after half. We were so close.

 

[Mikla]

Blount... stop thinking... just run... straight!

 

[RobertWeathers]

What was he doing out there anyways? Should have sat him obviously.

He needs to play. He's a rookie.

 

[varjao]

Man that sucks, I thought Mitchell was going to put 800 yards this season easily, I will tell you that depending on the timetable for his recovery might be worth keeping him on the roster, he was not going to be cut anyways, I know the roster spot is valuable but this guy was looking so much better than any other WR not named Edelman that have been in this team in recent years.

 

[Kdo5]

Dobson is one lucky fella though. Has a much better chance at snagging a roster spot now.

 

[AtomicDawg]

After 18 seconds of extensive medical research, if it's "only" a dislocated elbow for him (hopefully) he'd miss something like 4-6 weeks
