Peak of his career. Hell of a game. Something his fan boys will never forget.

John Ross is back. The only positive thing he's done since Week 1 was a long TD against 3rd string defenders in a 41-10 game.

This is why I said that the "John Ross Crow Eating Thread" or whatever it was called was hella-too-soon. The Bengals need to burn it all down for draft capital and hope they luck into another 2010-2011 draft situation where they hit on a lot of picks in a short period of time. Seems to be the only way this team has a chance the way it's being run right now.

All the WR's have run wrong routes and dropped passes, though.  It's kind of hard to shit on a guy when he leads the team in receiving yards, yards from scrimmage, yards/target, yards/touch, and has as many TD's as the rest of the team combined, but haters gonna hate I guess.  I'm not saying he's All Pro or anything, but he's the best we've had through 4 games.

Sign this dude. What could possibly go wrong?

[Older Than You Too]

Didn't see a thread about it.

Thankfully it's not a leg injury.

Damn, and here I was hoping the team would be able to trade him before the deadline.

This team can't catch a break.

Just wait till he gets a second opinion other than our crack staff. He will be our the rest of the season. Bank on it.

From the way he landed on his shoulder, I’d guess AC separation.

Didn't he go on IR his rookie year with a shoulder injury? Yes, he did.

As long as you don't get a ligament shredded, its a good deal as there is no pension.

For 16 weeks only. After paying for rent, food, transportation and insurance for injuries, they have nothing left.

It's 17 weeks IIRC because of the bye week, equating to $136k in total.
I was able to live comfortably in a 3-BR house by myself on half of that.

Ross has been placed on IR. He will be eligible to return in 8 weeks. He has a sternoclavicular injury not an AC injury so not actually a shoulder problem.
