Carr expected to start, per Adam Schefter

It's shocking how many fans are disappointed that our starting QB is healthy enough to play.

They want all that QB drama on the forum post game

Maybe see if you can get a sympathy flag from the refs on roughing the passer after you get hit, too (part of me wonders if the refs would've thrown a flag in the 2018 NFCCG if Lewis had started clutching his head and rolling around after getting clobbered.)

I like it!

He healed really fast within just a week from the injury. Hope the OL does their job today.

Anyone who's still doubting Carr or the team, here's your answer. It's been written on the wall since Monday.

I think the AC joint designation was just so he didn't have to into Concussion protocol. They are saying "no pain", "if we didn't know he was hurt, you'd think he was fine" Smells like BS.

Yeah, they even took him to the hospital for a brain scan lmao.

If he was hurt enough with an actual AC joint strain last week, then he probably shouldn't be playing 7 days later.

They can tell us whatever the hell they want about Xrays/scans, medical information is NOT public information.

That's an interesting point.

This is a bad idea…..

I was just thinking that. Feels forced. But,I don’t know the details. Just because you CAN start a player. Doesn’t mean you SHOULD.

I sincerely hope that's not the case.

I sincerely hope that's not the case.

I think that's an interesting theory that his issue was really a concussion and not a shoulder issue (watching it live speed, I thought he was concussed at first b/c his head did get slammed to the ground too), but yeah, I'd hope we would not do that.

 

[kcirdor]

I sincerely hope that's not the case.

I hope to hell that it is, cause if he really strained his throwing shoulder... then he should not be playing this week.

Are you saying a shoulder is more important than irreversible brain trauma? If you are, then I don't know how to respond to that...

Yes, i am... Cause if he can't throw at full strength, then he is going to make a bunch of bad decisions. People have been playing with concussions forever. 100% of football players have a concussion right now. To quote Brett Favre "thousands of concussions"

And I don't care how you respond to that. I'm trying to win football games.
