If Thomas had anything more severe than grade two he would have been placed on IR. I'd be shocked if he doesn't return within the next couple of weeks. Dunnells is saying that he thinks Thomas may even return to practice this week. We'll see. It is still well within the timeframe for recovery. |

Re: Week Eight QB Debate
So Predictable!!
"THE GUIDO SHUFFLE" ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() 1. Chastise posters for what they write because you don't agree. REMEMBER? "...... Also, a large percentage are gullible in what they read is FACT ... sadly." 2. Turn around and do exactly what you tell others not to do. Original Posts By: AsylumGuido "If Thomas had anything more severe than grade two he would have been placed on IR. I'd be shocked if he doesn't return within the next couple of weeks." "Not shocked at all." Should I be?" (SEE #3 ) 3. DENY, DENY, DENY. ![]() |

Second, the fact that they finally DID place him on IR while sharing the fact that he had dislocated the toe instead of suffering a more mild injury implied earlier changed the parameters and made the decision clearer. |
