Anyone Heard About Dalton's Injury? - BFritz21 - 12-13-2015

In the cast, but they haven't said broken or anything, just injured, which means it could just be a sprain or something, which wouldn't be horrible.

Has anyone heard anything about it?

The only positive I can see, as I said in the other thread...he's on the sideline, appears in good spirits.

If I was told me best season and a legit shot at a title was over...not sure I would be acting that way right away.

Annoucners saying we'd be lucky he have him in a couple weeks

Yea, he hurt his finger. The good news is he was last seen smiling and laughing on the sidelines. ?

Every time they show him he seems to be resting his chin on his injured thumb for some reason.

Cut it off

AJ talking about being ready for next week and getting all the snaps in practice.

Marvin Lewis says Dalton out “for a bit.” Definitely out next week. On timeline: “I can’t heal bones.”


RE: Anyone Heard About Dalton's Injury? - THE Bigzoman - 12-13-2015

No.

No.

God please, no.


RE: Anyone Heard About Dalton's Injury? - ItsOdellThurman - 12-13-2015

WE ******.

It's broke. Dalton confirmed. 4-6 weeks, but will know more after surgery.

Where did you see that?

CBS froze during Dalton's presser.  But before he said "I hurt my thumb" and after said "I'll see a specialist tomorrow for another opinion" but I never heard the words broken or surgery, nor any timeline between his and Marvin's press conferences.

Fractured. Severity of fracture not known yet.

Stop assuming.


RE: Anyone Heard About Dalton's Injury? - packerbacker - 12-14-2015

Very sorry about this. I'm POed. I really liked the Bengals chances going all the way in the AFC. I hope and pray for fast healing.

Post game in the lockerroom. Interview with Dalton and Marv (not in front of national tv) told the whole story. Surgery to get screws put in likely today. Marvin "We've been lucky to have Dalton available. Will have to work with new QB going forward". He told Lap so much more than what he told national tv audience. Understandably.

He has a visit with a specialist today to find out if he will be able to return for potential playoff games or has to wait till next season

Bengals are looking at potential Backups for AJ


RE: Anyone Heard About Dalton's Injury? - ItsOdellThurman - 12-14-2015

Yeah, the names mentioned Ryan Mallett and Christian Ponder?

I mean, why would you bring a malcontent like Mallett in?

not sure what else is out there... Personally would like Colt McCoy from the Redskins... But not much is available out there.

Somebody get Warner on the Phone lol


RE: Anyone Heard About Dalton's Injury? - jj22 - 12-14-2015

News likely soon that surgery (screws inserted) was complete and success. Should be ready for camp.

Now this is just my guess, but yesterday Lap and Dalton made it sound like that was what the visit was for today (surgery). Marv in coach talk probably didn't want to say it, but the news today will bring everything to light.

Nowhere can I find anything stating a need for surgery or inserting screws.  The least speculative thing I can find states:

Dalton suffered a fractured right thumb during Sunday’s loss to the Steelers. Though the source said there’s some level of optimism that the trip to the specialist will reveal a four-week timetable, the Bengals know the timing of the injury and the calendar make it more likely that he won’t play again until next season.  -PFT

Andy Dalton’s visit to a specialist is set for Monday afternoon, a league source told PFT, and after the appointment the Bengals and Dalton believe they’ll have a better idea if Dalton has a chance to return in four weeks or if the Bengals will have to shut him down for the season.  -PFT

Again, everyone needs to stop speculating and await the actual word of the doctors who look at the injury.  There's been nothing but WebMD diagnosis' ranging from IR to career ending.

If it is a 4 week injury, he could return for the divisional round, so a gameplan that defeats the Broncos to get a bye would still allow him to return.
