Hat tip (and well wishes) to Greg Olsen


Carl Spackler

Recommended Posts

Mr. Reliable played his ass off today.

He broke two tackles and carried a defender for a first down we absolutely wouldn’t have otherwise gotten. On a third and 17 he catches a 10-yard pass and does everything he can, including taking a hit to the head from a piece of poo Redskins player, in his all-out effort to get a first.

1) I hope Greg is OK. 
2) I hope he doesn’t go out like this. 
3) In the event that’s it, damn man. Thank you for everything.

I would add this in the same vein...

I know we complain about Marty stuffing the IR, but if he were to put Olsen on injured reserve tomorrow I'd have no issue with it.

Just b/c Hurney actually puts a guy that should go on IR on IR, even I won't call that stuffing the IR.  He's still gonna stuff it, but an injured player is an injured player.  I can call it straight when necessary.

I didn't see the game but saw "highlights" of it including this hit. Ryan Anderson definitely deserves to get suspended for a game or two for that intentional hit. Made me sick to see Olsen instantly fall the way he did. Greg's leadership over the years, even during losing seasons, has been tremendous and I'd really hate to see him go out this way.

I hate to see him go out like this too, but I think the "Hollywood ending" ship has sailed.

Sad to say that's true for any veteran who's not coming back next year, and I feel like there's a few of them.

Also I wish TD wound up with a better team in the AFC... Baltimore or Houston, KC, etc. (not the Pats). Too bad he won’t even get a shot at the playoffs this year, he deserves a ring as much as any active player who doesn’t have one, right up there with Fitzgerald.
