4-6 weeks. See you in December, MJ. Hopefully.

Yeah, hopefully the 4-6 is accurate, but the way our luck goes, I'm not counting on it.

I'm just glad it's not out for the season.

[Johnny Cupcakes]

4-6 weeks eh? Well, in Bengals terms we all know that that means that he'll be IR'd sometime around week 10.

[Thundercloud]

The season starts in just about six weeks. Hard to tell where this could go, but I'll just remain optimistic, and I certainly won't rely on anything Marvin says about it.

I don't know why some of these guys don't wear knee braces during practice. Would prevent some of these injuries. I wonder how many players get injured during practice sessions? It seems half of the time the players are getting hurt during practice.

Is there any kind of shuffling on the D-line that can be done to make room for Tony McDaniel?

[SunsetBengal]

Perhaps McDaniel could be of assistance?

At 6'7" McDaniel is unusually tall for a DT, perhaps he has some DE skills?

Wasn't Burfict originally day to day when he got hurt?

Aren't we all?

Perfect. Now they can really get the band back together when the offer Robert Geathers a tryout. Barf.

[basballguy]

4-6 weeks with our training staff means he's done for the year.

Our trainingstaff had no problem getting AJ Green back on time last year. And Gio. And many other players.

Is this true? Would wearing a knee brace prevent an injury? I see college players all the time playing in games wearing them.

My issue is that their estimated time table is always off.  MLJ was supposed to be back after a few games.....IR. Eifert was supposed to be back for the second half of the season....IR.  Burfict was supposed to be out for s couple of games....IR, and he'll start this season on the PUP.

I don't expect MJ to be back as early as they say...

MLJ was ready to be back...then hurt something else. 
Unless the medical staff is throwin goomba shells at the players during practice, I don't think that can comeback on them

Eifert didn't progress how he should have. Can't do anything about that.

Burfict was out for the concussions. Then they found a micro-fracture.

You're right.  My frustrations are being amplified. 

Also....goombas didn't have shells.
