The Positive Kyler Murray News Thread

[kerouac9]

Nary a peep this week about where Kyler is and the possibility of him coming back soon.

Did no one even ask JG??

That's no fun.

Why? So he can say "He's ready when he's ready" again?

Yes.

I think the Cardinals from DAY 1 planned when he would come back, and won’t stray from that plan. They know he needs to play in 2023, but it’ll be according to that pre-set plan and not a day sooner. Wouldn’t be surprised if he comes off the PUP next week, and then 2 weeks of practice before we see him. 2023 was always going to be an evaluation year for this team, so they’re in no rush with Murray. Let’s be honest, all they really need are maybe 4-5 weeks to watch him & make sure the injury hasn’t affected his skill set long term.

I’ll be very disappointed if he’s not back before week 10. He needs as many reps as possible.

Burns and Gambo asked him when they spoke with him earlier in the week.

He said, "I know I sound like a broken record, but when he's ready to go - he'll go."

Gambo followed up by asking, "You fully expect that Kyler will play in a decent number of games this season?"

JG: "I do."

It's kind of shocking how easily many people shifted from "actually I wouldn't be at all surprised if Kyler Murray starts Week 1" to "I'm not bothered at all if Kyler isn't playing until after Halloween."

a lot of fans carry false hope in their saddle bags

From the beginning we know a player will not be at his prior performance level until season 2 after this type of surgery. I do not like KM returning this year especially with this team.

Lol… it’s not shocking and you know it. It’s par for the course.

 

[Krangodnzr]

Lol… it’s not shocking and you know it. It’s par for the course.

My take is that I just want Kyler to come back when he is ready.

Game one, game ten...whatever. Its a lost year anyway.

What's eight weeks between fans?

 

[football karma]

in this day of modern sports medicine-- there are metrics the training staff are monitoring.

Murray probably has to hit certain metrics before he gets cleared -- things like various measures of strength differential between the two legs, etc.

also very curious to see if he comes back with a brace on the leg

This made me laugh out loud

 

[schutd]

Lol… it’s not shocking and you know it. It’s par for the course.

If football fans were not allowed to move the needle on their beliefs, we'd all go bonkers. I get more amusement out of K9 trying to trigger posters, than I do on the flip flops. Those dont bother me at all.

Heard a rumor that when he posted "soon", he meant to post something about the Boomers Sooners, and got distracted.

Just to be clear who are you referencing?

I saw some people say maybe he could make it back for week 1, like back in April, and I've seen some others say now he should take his time.

Both reasonable positions at the time under the circumstances, but I don't think they are the same people.

 

[oaken1]

Back when he got hurt I said Thanksgiving... still on pace for that and any sooner is a bonus.

Doesn’t matter. Unless we’re picking top-3 Kyler is our QB going forward whether he plays this year or not.

If he doesn't play at all this year, the odds of us picking top 3 are very high.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

We'll probably see Kyler in week 12. When in his his own words he is "physically and MENTALLY able to return.".

3 day break. Multiple warnings about these takes in this thread

Kind of harsh if I’m reading this correctly. I think the poster is saying that Murray needs to feel confident he is 100% healthy.

 

[Garthshort]

prepare yourself

I haven't been disappointed in a Cardinals' performance since the Cincy game. Seems like ages ago.

 

[Chopper0080]

This thread is such a mine field for me. I forget I am in it sometimes and have had to delete multiple drafts. Whew.
