That's what I mean you keep the one that's the cheapest because they both are pretty close to the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWJ Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I'd be fine with both being gone next year but Gruden likes McCoy a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonnySideUp Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 When you look at all of the crap that's happened to him so far (sheesh), I'm surprised he's lasted this long. He's already had 5 concussions (not counting this most recent one if it turns out in fact to be one). I would think he will retire at the end of this season for the sake of his own health. >>Reed has experienced three prior concussions in his NFL career. In 2013, Reed had a Grade 3 concussion and landed on injured reserve. He missed two weeks in 2015 with a Grade 1 concussion. He tried to hide concussion symptoms in 2016, but missed two games with his third concussion. Reed also had two separate concussions at Florida. It's all putting his football career at risk. Reed's concussion is just his latest injury setback. While Reed made the Pro Bowl in 2016, his Grade 1 concussion and shoulder separation limited him to 66 catches for 686 yards and six touchdowns in 12 games. Reed played just six games in 2017 while battling a fractured toe along with a chest contusion and a Grade 3 hamstring tear, having just 27 catches for 211 yards and two touchdowns. Reed underwent toe surgery last year and spent the entire offseason rehabbing, failing to run until the start of training camp. He had 54 catches for 558 yards and two touchdowns in 13 games. Reed had 87 catches for 952 yards and 11 touchdowns in 14 games during his breakout 2015 season, but suffered a concussion and knee injury that year as well. << https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/jordan-reed-evaluated-for-concussion-after-brutal-helmet-to-helmet-hit-by-keanu-neal/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandyHolt Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I cannot help but think Luck retiring is going to give Reed a cause to pause, and rethink life. I wonder if Indy fans were saying Luck should retire like some say that Reed should. 2 hours ago, desertbeagle85 said: Well I have a feeling Gruden won't be here next year. So that won't matter. Vegas has Gruden most likely to be first fired and its not even close. I would like to short that as Bruce knows no one else wants the job.

Agreed, also bc out of self preservation bruce knows the starting over plan could mean he is out of a job too, instead he will sell Dan on, "we are so close, we are on the right path, just bad luck with injuries, etc, so we need to keep as much intact as possible, including me" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, that's about as much reach, as all the people saying this team goes 3-13 this year. It's all total exaggeration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect he is smart enough to not let ties to Haskins tempt him to go where few other respect names dare yonder. One can hope Dan throws enough money at the problem, however. FWIW IIRC Jay was also voted most likely to be first fired, last season as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmandoug1 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Reed should follow Luck. The concussions he has suffered will have long term effects that will only get worse with time. I would hate to see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malapropismic Depository Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I expect hourly updates. I'm genuinely concerned. Does Jordan have a headache ? Is he dizzy ? Is his vision ok ? Is his speech ok ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeJacobyHOForRIOT Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 I'm over Jordan Reed, great player but he has become a injury magnet. I really like what I have seen from Sprinkle, he's got wheels. I feel completely fine with a Vernon Davis Jeremy Sprinkle tandem at Tight End.

This is in no way Reeds fault. I see what you're saying in a sense but still. The hit was dirty IMO and the concussion protocol is a ****ing warm hole. Meanwhile the Redskins have two serviceable TEs. I was watching the game again and this pissed me off to no end. Watch TE Flanagan's ass. Instead of directing the offense like you're a freaking play maker, do your ****ing job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't count how many times I've "seen stars". I think just like everything in life, it depends on the person. There are 80-100 year old folk sittin in wheel chairs smokin' Marlboro cigarettes and drinking corn liquor. Then there's vegans who would never even think of eating red meat, dying of cancer. At some point, you've got to live your life, do what makes you happy and let the chips fall where they may. I absolutely understand Luck's point of view. If Reed decides to go down the same road, let it be. By no means would I advice another to follow someone else. Its best to follow yourself (I'd say heart, but that's a bit cheesy) in these matters.

O yeah for sure, Like I said the guy is a injury magnet. This isn't his fault but he just constantly gets banged up the same way some people in life are always accident prone. It is what it is.

You don't see any valid reasons why a coach with a 34-44 record with one playoff appearance in 5 seasons is on the hot seat? His teams constantly start the season as if they are unprepared, he has demonstrated terrible clock management repeatedly, they never seem to win any big games. I think it should be obvious that this is another losing season, not a chance he should return after that. As for Jordan Reed I really hope he takes this seriously and considers his life after football. He should call Jim McMahon. It goes without saying that the team needs to move on, he just can't be counted on. But there is more than just football at stake here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it should be obvious that this is another losing season, not a chance he should return after that. He’s more like a .500 coach if looking at it with a sliver of objectivity. Contractually it screams “show me something”. I don’t think it has to be playoffs, but some sort of silver lining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
