How would Brooks be 100% after a November ACL tear? I’d be fine if he didn’t play until November. 

the studies out that looked at return to the playing field say the average player gets back on the football field in 11 months.   He has youth on his side so he could represent the quick side but the average would mean October is when he would be back to actually playing football.

Jack Plummer was surprisingly underrated in this draft. He didn’t exactly have the best team before he got to Louisville and given one more year at Louisville I feel he would’ve been drafted. 

100% would not have been drafted lmao. 

Dude was terrible. He only got picked up in the portal because Brohm was hired late in the cycle and he knew the offense. 

He would not, and should not have been drafted. Louisville often times won in spite of him. 

He has prototypical size. Thats it. Bryce Young has a stronger arm than Jack Plummer.

I am so happy we got XL....he's got a chance to make Smitty worry about his goat status.  And the kid seems like such a good guy

I can confirm, he is a very good dude. What you see is what you get with him.

This is exactly what I thought--however, during the draft, someone said his return was slated for July 1.  That is too soon. imo, unless the complete tear is a faster process than a partial.  Maybe I did not understand what was being said.  I personally think they should IR him for four games and then take about 2 weeks to activate him--roughly midseason?

Right now, (and I think Sanders will be OK with the new OL--if he stays) we have a loaded RB room.  Penny, Blackshear, Sanders, and Hubbard without Brooks.  We can bring him along slowly.

They are projecting him to be cleared by training camp. He appears to be ahead of schedule. They still should ease him in early on. 
“Honestly, as far as rehab goes, it’s good,” Brooks said. “I’m out there, I’m running, I’m about to start cutting. So I’m progressing well. I’m right on track on where I need to be. For me to get back to camp, it’s also just a blessing. I feel like this injury’s a blessing from God just being that it gives me a chance to focus on a lot of other things.

Thanks for this. Good to hear this stuff from the player himself instead of guesswork prognosis.  We’ll get him out there when they think he’s ready, and sounds like it could be sooner than some think.

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
