JJ Watt update?

[Red on White]

He can absolutely be a difference maker in the playoffs. I have no doubt.

If teams don't account for him he can wreck them...so at the very least he is going to command double teams his first game back or until he proves it's not needed.

Watching those first 7 games he seemed to be in the head of the opposition QB at times, whether he was making plays or not.

They were acutely aware of him and seemed uncomfortable, made uncharacteristic errors.

Not sure how you measure presence

First, kudos to you for owning up to it. I hadn’t even remembered without your reminder. Second do I have to do anything or just provide you with an image (I’m oldish. But when it comes to technology I’m ancient).

yeah my tech skills are pretty limited too, lol... but get me an image and I should be able to figure out how to get it loaded in

 

[Red on White]

Oh he messed it up good, labrum & rotator cuff plus a biceps injury.

Just please no more diving at QBs once they get outside of the pocket.

Unless it’s in the SB & prevents a GW drive lol

So if Watt starts, and Jordan Phillips is healthy, we would start Watt at DE, Lawrence at DT, and Phillips at the other DE.

We would rotate in Z. Allen, Peters and probably Dogbe.

Damn.

Standard ASFN post. Great news followed by standard Debbie Downer post.

Dude. SCFS is a legit medical condition. Seasoned Cardinal Fan Syndrome is not something to tease about.

I’d bet on Watt playing more to finish the season than Princess Phillips.

Watt isn't going to play with "one arm". He isn't stupid and neither is the team.

If the drummer from Def Leppard can play with one arm, so can JJ.

 

[speedy]

Bethany Hamilton made a come back too!

man... it would be a big bummer now for him NOT to play because you know everyone's getting their hopes up for it. it's impossible not to.

Exactly. That's why for me, he needs to play at least 2 series, probably 3.

DHop's recovery is 6 weeks, putting him recovered on Jan. 24 w/no setbacks. So he COULD play in the second round if he comes back a day earlier.....playing shape is a whole other animal....

DeAndre Hopkins won't return this week

The Cardinals could have edge rusher J.J.

Hop not coming back man. Even if we do make the SB. He’s done.

 

[imaCafan]

Imagine we win Monday w/Watt playing limited snaps and the following game DHop DOES come back to contribute! Wouldn't that be something... I read a grade 3 (worst one) tear usually takes four to eight weeks to heal, unless the ACL is also damaged, in which case recovery may take longer.

anybody around that seen Goldberg play - ole number 99 - had to be the time before and after the card pitts teams? Went to war and came back and earned a pro bowl and the last Cardinal championship in 1947. What a Bad AZ! Probably history lost with lil Billy Bidwill, the ball boy that became owner. Yea JJ that’s like 198 reasons to earn thus championship.

With Permission From Marshall Goldberg’s Daughter, J.J. Watt Will Wear No. 99

thats just cool, his nick name was Biggie because of his lack of size as a small child. West Virginian with a Dad born in Ukraine and was a machine tool salesman. Last page begs if he has any funny stories about, HS, college or service football, dude just got back from serving on an ammo supply boat during ww2 in the South Pacific, I know my uncle Charlie cleaned up mass if bodies from beaches with backhoes there, didn’t want to talk about it.

That seems a little gimmicky. The way it’s being hyped I’d be surprised if the reports of his recovery were exaggerated. He really isn’t human.
