Title: Devante Parker Bad Hamstring - Gametime Decision
Post by: EDGECRUSHER on October 08, 2021, 11:34:16 am
Parker always has had aches and pains, that is the knock against him and it's entirely fair. To be honest, why even play him this Sunday? We're going to get killed, let him rest up for the Jaguars game when we "reboot the season". I don't want someone playing at 60% in a lost cause if it means they will be at 60% the rest of the way, that's just stupid.

Because you play to win the game.  You don't take players out because you think you're going to lose.  You base it entirely on their health.

Sure, but I'm being practical. I would rather have Parker 100% for Jacksonville than 60% the rest of the way because we keep running him out there injured. He is no good to anyone on a bad leg since his whole skillset involves them.

In all fairness there is no guarantee he would be healthy against Jax even if he didn't play. That guy is fragile by NFL standards.

It's the NFL. No one getting playing time is 100%

I gotta agree with Edge.  I still think Jake Long's career was ruined by Sparano putting him out there when he was injured.  If only they hadn't traded Jakeem Grant this wouldn't be an issue. lol, sort of.

He is out for today's game and so is Noah, although I don't know if that is due to injury or just another inactive.

Noah Igbinoghene was a healthy scratch. Again.

At this point, he has to be made the kick returner or just released to make an example out of. What a horrific draft pick.

Nope, bench one of our two overpaid clown CBs that get burned every week and put Noah in there for evaluation and entertainment purposes. As Hillary said, ""What difference at this point, what difference does it make?"
