Conn Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Landry hasn't been the same since he was run over in that Giants game a couple years back. Were you in a mental institute for the first half of last season? Landry was arguably the defensive MVP of the league until he hurt his Achilles. And he was playing with a ****ed up wrist.

Arsenic Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 For some reason I think Banks may end up on IR. This knee issue doesn't sound good. I'm a bit of a conspiracy nut With each passing game, it's becoming more & more apparent that this new kickoff rule will be a one-year blunder. Consider Terrence Austin looking to be a beast & Donté Stallworth is seemingly everything we've wanted Kelly to be, as well as Armstrong & Gaffney being roster locks (Hankerson, although debatable, would likely get plucked from the PS) it makes much sense, imo, to add Brandon Banks to the PUP list, for a few reasons: • Avoid cutting star KO Returner, due to a [dumb] rule which surely won't be in effect next season. • Avoid cutting productive WR's, just to keep a star KO returner who's temporarily unable to return kicks (due to dumb one-year rule) • Avoid "Media Shannahating", possible fines and *slayed reputation if caught faking injuries, in order to justify the addition of star KO Returner to the PUP list. * (see Spygate, Belichick) edit: and isn't there a new rule banning the faking of injuries? Ya see.. Mike Shanahan is no dummy.. Especially if he feels that we're looking to make a strong run at the Superbowl, next year, there's an absolute ZERO chance he is going to cut his game-changing, star Kickoff Returner, when there's a strong chance that this new KO rule will soon be a joke of the future... Step 1: fake injury Step 2: BB to the PUP Step 3: Keep WRs Step 4: if truly hurt, let BB heal for "the run" Step 5: Dumb rule revert Step 6: BB back in action Step 7: Championship!! edit: Step 8: Remove Tin Foil hate Makes sense, right? Surely, I could have expressed this thought in less words.. But what fun would that be? :whoknows: Regardless, Hail! ---------- Post added August-21st-2011 at 11:39 PM ---------- Laron Landry = Malcolm Kelly Just kidding I See Ninjas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

techboy Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Makes sense, right? Maybe, except that Brandon Banks has practiced, so he's not eligible for PUP. He'd have to go on IR, and not be eligible to play until next year, which still might fit a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Day Day should have been bumped at the line of scrimmage by our Pro Bowl MVP CB lol. He literally sped right passed him. Any Safety in the league would have been torched on that play.

Kindred Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 People I dont think Kelly is really hurt. I think Shanny has keep him out to make sure he dont get hurt. I think Shanny saw him when they first started Camp and he was doing good and he made a decision to sit him till season start. Wasnt the talk in the begining of camp that Kelly was looking great. I think Mike just want his #1 to be fully healthy at the start of camp. I know for a fact that Kelly has a bruised Uterus. Xrays came back positive and it looks like he'll be on injured reserve for the next few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0crates Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I'm all for a backfield of Hightower, Helu and Royster. Me too. Torrain's inability to stay healthy is a big factor here, but I also just like what I see from Helu and Royster. For some reason I think Banks may end up on IR. This knee issue doesn't sound good. This is an intersting possibility, but I hope Banks makes the roster and contributes this year. His big plays on special teams will be missed if he doesn't. Laron Landry = Malcolm Kelly Apparently a few people missed the joke, but I realize you are kidding. In seriousness, Landry's injuries are becoming a big concern.

You think Kelly was so good that he was obviously better than the dozen other guys competing for the spot? You think he was so good that Shanny would not risk playing him, as though he were a Peyton Manning? I think not. I will be shocked if the comb makes this team.

martytheman Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 For all those calling for the team to cut Kelly, I'd bet you'd react badly to calls to cut Banks or Torain. All are talented players that can help this team, and each of their injuries leaves them in danger of not making the roster. . the problem with this statement is both Banks and Torain have actually DONE something in a game (i.e. played) besides stand on the sideline with their helmets off (comb). The comb has done less than nothing in his 3 years here... at this point it's not like the team is missing out on anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wit33 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 When? Was it when he invited him to training camp, but also brought in competition in the form of Larry Johnson and Willie Parker? Was it when he actually cut Torain, risking that he'd be claimed by another team off of waivers, choosing a washed up Johnson and an aged, injury-prone Portis over him? Was it when he only raised him from the Practice Squad once Johnson and Portis were either injured, or playing miserably? Was it when he claimed James Davis off the wire mid-way through the season? Was it when he traded up to draft Helu? Was it when he then drafted Royster? Was it when he traded for Tim Hightower? I guess it depends on how one defines going out on a "limb". Torain has started at running back for two different teams for Shanny in just 3 years. Both times- Shanny went out and got his services (via draft and free agency). His rookie season was first derailed by a elbow injury that resulted in him missing the first three months of the season. After being out all that time as a rookie he still managed to become the starting running back (injured in first half). Yes, the Broncos had a rash of injuries that year at running back, but Shanny was gushing about Torain in the offseason. Many thought he had an opportunity to start the season as the number one running back. In his first start he tore his ACL and was injured for the year. Being a 5th round pick and tearing your ACL is tough to come back from, but yet again Shanny gave him a opportunity last year and he seized it. He performed very well considering the circumstances of the team last year. He was put on waivers in the beginning of the year because he was a 5th rounder coming off a torn ACL. Who else would want him? Shanny knew he could stash him on the practice squad. Quickly there after he was back on the team and once again the featured back for a Shanny lead team. I would also like to make perfectly clear that I do not feel Torain is a great back by any means. He has not done nearly enough to warrant that. He did well in a bad overall offense last year. I think he is more valuable than Royster and will do more to contribute next year. What do you think Ryan Torain would say if asked the question--- Has Shanny gone out on a limb for you over the years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His big plays on special teams will be missed if he doesn't. What other reason he's still on the team. Theres nothing wrong with his foot. Xrays have been negative. Kelly has said the trainers are holding him out. I dont why they would do this but thats what I think, could be crazy, but it also could be brilliant. Apparently a few people missed the joke, but I realize you are kidding. In seriousness, Landry's injuries are becoming a big concern. You cannot really think this.

Don't you remember that one play a few years ago? That showed how great he can be. If he was just on the field five times a game and did that twice, I mean, you can see the potential right?

DC9 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Well, I am really upset that the Comb didn't show up. But, the good news is, Terrance Austin SHOULD make this team after his showing. He has the eventual replacement for Moss written all over him. As for Kelly, what a waste. Vinny....you suck again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingGibbs Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I honestly believe that Landry's love for lifting the iron is a hinderance to his athleticism and causing some of his injuries.

I'm just saying lol.. if your going to speak on things at least try and understand what your saying. It was zone coverage. Our probowl CB did give him a bump within 5 yards and stayed with him until it was time for Landry to pick up the slack. It goes both ways, if your going to speak on things at least try and understand what your saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly his fault either. Given the rather lackluster performance of our WRs, I wouldn't think fans would be so quick to kick one out the door. BTW, the only reason why Torain has done more is because he got the opportunity. Otherwise, he's been just as hurt as Kelly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
