DHop still on crutches on sideline.

[Arz101]

Not good.

 

[BigCardsFan]

he has declined significantly this year tbh

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

Non issue.

 

[Shane]

Non issue.

Huh? It’s def an issue. We’re playing without him and are def not as good without him. Not sure of “non issue”

 

[JosiahLee]

Yeah he ain’t coming back unless the Cards could find some playoff magic and make it to the Super Bowl. Even then I think the odds would be against him.

Using a crutch to take pressure off the knee is the 'non-issue'.

We’re two weeks from the playoffs…. If he’s still on crutches he won’t be there. They were hoping he would. If he’s not there it is an issue. May not be annissue moving into next season. But this year it is.

Am I the only guy on this board who's had multiple knee injuries? They don't want you weight bearing after surgery if you don't have to. I could stand without crutches for 2 months after my last surgery but they still had me on crutches because they don't want you to lose balance and get hurt. Standing on an NFL sideline is not necessarily a safe place I'm not at all surprised he's on crutches.

The timing is such that IF we get to the Super Bowl he MIGHT be able to play, that's the best we can hope for. But being on crutches today doesn't concern me at all

Could be gamesmanship, But I don't give Kliff that kind of credit

You mean like Kliff tricking McCarthy to call time out when he put Prater and Murray in the huddle? Today Kliff was outstanding

Yay.. Blind Squirrel>Nut

Not just in the huddle, but had prayer split out wide right and Murray under center.

 

[Arz101]

No. That was planned. Even the fake punt was good. Knew he had to rely on Kyler legs in second half. He was good.

 

[Jetstream Green]

It also could be precautionary to not allow him to let weight rest on it if he intends to stand a lot, and he did travel with the team... we don't know but it does not mean he is exactly out

 

[Crimson Warrior]

It feels a little bit better each time we win, I promise you that. Same for JJ's shoulder.

And a full strength D Hop is still a top ten receiver in the league. Big big deal that we don't have him out there. He's a about a million times better running after the catch than either Kirk, Green or Wesley. 10x better than at Moore running routes and making contested catches.

 

[AZman5103]

Has there been any word on when JJ and DHop could return? Is it superbowl or nothing, or could we theoretically get the back if we win a playoff game?

 

[TaylorSwift]

Should have drafted Lamb and still get Hop

 

[AZ Native]

Crutches? All for show.

 

[SeattleCardinal]

I sure hope he is healthy for our February 13 game against Kansas City, if not sooner.

 

[Arz101]

DHop status is same. No way he is playing wildcard.

 

[BigRedRage]

Even if he came on the field at 50% in the super bowl he alone would account for us getting another ten points from his distraction
