still hurt and see how he responds before thinking the worst. I didn't think the injury was the problem with his play in the Stains game
as there was so much other things going on terrible for us. I was wrong clearly it seems and we DID bring him back too early.
Sad, I would like to keep positive but I have no hope in Browning or Will Grier in getting us wins. Grier is late to the party and is just
learning the playbook and Browning just isn't starting caliber. Hope somebody gives me some hope on here.
This was shocking when hearing about this to me this morning. I just thought Burrow and the Offense were still rusty and that was
the reason for the poor start against the Rats.
Everyone is acting like this was some boneheaded decision. There is no way to know when these things are healed. Burrow said he was 100%, are they supposed to call him a liar and bench him during 2 Division games? Calf injuries can linger, and there is no timetable. I guess they could have played it safe and put him on season ending IR though, right? Because he could have sat till game 6, and then re-aggravated it then. It's luck of the draw.
As for Browning, I'm not sure people aren't selling him short. He worked with Palmer in the off season, his escapability in the pocket is close to Burrow's, and we've never seen him out there with the #1s having had a week of reps. I'd like to see what he can do before writing him off.
