When he runs, and does squats, and therapy, etc. there is never a 300lb individual trying to prevent him from doing those things. I could run like a deer, all day long, squat a ton of weight, etc. but until I started doing them both at the same time, as is required by actual football contact drills....well, let's just say the soreness was unbelievable at the beginning of a season, despite one's so-called "conditioning".
I'm sure that mentally, he is 100% and he is probably watching a lot of videos and understanding his future opponents. He is as instinctive a LB as I have ever seen. I'm not worried about that portion of it whatsoever.
I want him out there as bad as the next guy, and even having him out there for a few snaps at putzburg would be highly motivating to the team. However, the goal is the Super Bowl, and I really, really want him down the stretch and in the postseason. I think the team can be 9-0 without him and then he starts to get acclimated in the AZ game.
agree but the Team should be highly motiviated as is... Undefeated and chasing history in more than one way.
