Nelson out with same injury as Wentz

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Ortho surgeon on Wentz recovery since no tendon was involved.

 

 

[EastStreet]

I wonder if they got a 2 for 1 discount with the surgeon?

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Expect the same for Nelson if no tendon was involved.

 

 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Hopefully Nelson’s procedure goes as good as Wentz. So far it seems like Wentz won’t miss many games if any.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

These ortho surgeons are saying the same thing Reich said on Pats show today too.

[Moosejawcolt]

So let's say Wentz is back for game 1. Nelson misses say 5 games or more. His replacement does well and the run game and the Colts are ticking a long. Then what bout Nelson's contract? 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Hopefully we hear tomorrow Nelson had no additional damage too.

No Nelson or Castonzo.  I guess we'll see how good Taylor is.  That's probably the only way you compete in the short term, by Taylor showing himself to be elite regardless.

Plus Kelly is hurt and the Colts like to run behind Kelly and Nelson.  
 

I am not going to judge Taylor too harshly if he struggles out of the gate.  Teams will be sitting on him to start with and his three best blockers are hurt or retired.  Guys can only do so much by themselves.

I'm a big Chris Reed fan in fact I was all for moving Q to LT and him and Reed would havce formed a formidable combo. I honestly believe he stars at RG next season and we let Glow chase a bigger contract. He has gotten significantly better every season and is a better Guard than Holden,Tevi,Davenport are Tackle and by quite a bit.  No one is Q......Q is a man among boys but Reed started 14 games last season with a high grade for a reason.

Kelly should be back at practice for the panthers practices. If not the following week.

Wentz had it since high school, Nelson since birth.

 

One thing is for sure, Colts medical screenings are top notch.  

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Zak Keefer said he talked with a local ortho doc. They told him most likely 6 weeks. That would be one game.

Joel Erickson had a tweet today. Said when they enter the nfl the medical checks at the combine only X-ray and  mri previous injury.

People really should listen to Will Carroll’s interview with JMV yesterday.  He went over a lot of things people are talking about/asking about.

 

In this case he was talking about Wentz (didn’t know about Nelson yet) and he said the medical staff probably did know about the injury but he said any doctor would go well it hasn’t bothered him this long it probably won’t bother him.   Unfortunately the Colts got unlucky.

 

Its called practicing medicine for a reason.  No doctor is full proof and doctors can’t see the future in every situation.  All they can do is look at the information they have and give you their best opinion on what they think you should do based on their past experiences and past treatments.  It’s not full proof as we clearly saw here.

He gets the exact same extension as he would before.

Fool proof.

Wonder if this puts a damper on extension talk right now.

[King Colt]

From what I know about Nelson to have to sit out games has to be tearing him up.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

I don’t think Nelson needs TC so he should be just fine when he comes back. Wentz is the one that needed camp but it is what it is.

Lol, I know your not serious.  But nelson is only 1 person out of 5 on a offensive line not counting the TE's. He can't block the entire defensive line plus blitzers by himself.

Hope his Dr prescribed him some beer and a hot tub to lift his spirits...

I can truly believe he will play Week 1 because of who he is and luckily the injury is getting corrected now.

He made an instagram post talking about being ready for week 1, and some other 300-style motivation, my guess is he beat the surgery up.

[CamMo]

They will pump these guys full of pain meds, and they’ll be out there.

Don’t get me wrong I am sure the surgeries did go as well as they said they did but has a NFL team ever come out and said yep the doctor botched that one…
