There's really no point in comparing the injury to Bo's.

Very few fields of medicine have come along as far as orthopedics in the last thirty years.

Panthers should draft Herbert at 7.

Between Kevin Everett being able to walk again, partially because of an on-field saline injection they did, and then Adrian Peterson rushing for 2k after his knee got glued back together, I generally don’t question if people can return anymore.

Kevin Everett was paralyzed but they saved his broken spine while he was still down on the field.

I figured he's got Schrodinger's Hip at this point, and by the draft we'd know if it would be a threat long-term. Although I wonder if there's degenerative effects (I mean, there almost certainly will be, but I mean within his playing career).

The ankle injuries were weird ones, high ankle sprains that required surgical procedures, the exact same injury and procedure on each leg. As far as I understand, high ankle injuries aren't quite the huge lingering concern that they used to be (especially ones with surgical fixes).

He had some other minor garbage like a knee sprain, a quad injury, a broken finger. Essentially, the dude had horrible injury luck. It's only a concern for people that somehow believe avoiding injury is a skill and not a random statistical outcome.
Injury avoidance is both a skill and a random statistical outcome, depending on the position played and the injury in question.

After seeing the results from last nights games, I've got to hope that Sean puts just a little more fear of God into them today.

Let's map this out:

Saints win vs Minnesota
Saints win vs Green Bay
Saints win vs San Francisco
Saints win vs Baltimore



I believe.

I've mapped out all the possibilities, and the most likely outcome is Brees wins 6 Super Bowls in a row and retires with more rings than Brady.
