DE Nick Bosa "Smaller Bear" NO POLITICS

TBH - I'll be happy to see the following
1) make it through a week of practice w/out getting injured. I don't believe that has happened yet
2) play in a game
3) show some impact
4) get a sack

Sad, that its come to that w/ Bosa.

Today is the first full practice - we'll see if he makes it through without any setbacks.

SMDH. It hasn't "come to that" with Bosa. No one cares about the preseasons or TC. Just the regular season games. How many of those has he missed? How many regular season games has he failed to show an impact in? How many regular season games has he failed to get a sack?

He didn't get hurt first week of training camp so you can remove 1 off your list.

The rest he'll produce as well.

If you're not producing in preseason how can you produce in the regular season?

I hope he isn't lying to himself N think he's ready to go this weekend then tweaks his ankle because he's still not 100% healthy. This would suck if he needs one more week but ends up rushing to soon get back there.

if hes not limping and can actually practice he isnt lying to himself and im sure the staff wouldnt put him out there. He's been running for weeks leading up to monday's practice

Ease him in slowly. Let him have 5 sacks on Winston then sit him the rest of the game

Poor Nick can't win lol.

People claim Bosa's don't play unless they're 100% healthy. Now people saying he should't rush out there unless he's 100% healthy?

If he feels good enough and the team has no concerns then he should play. Snap count could be limited simply due to not handing him a starting job with max snap counts out of the gate when he's coming off an injury. But putting him in bubble wrap isn't the way to go.

It's football. If he gets hurt it's part of the game. It would really suck but only way you can ensure guys don't get hurt is not to play them...which defeats the purpose of having talented players.

what is his injury status listed as today? questionable?

You're trying too hard to say something intelligent or profound that it doesn't make any sense.

Human nature is getting the best of you. Nothing Bosa has done is cause for such concern, lighten up buddy.

If you're not producing in preseason how can you produce in the regular season?

They're not correlated. Do you have the same concerns about Dee Ford? Or any other player in the NFL who didn't play in preseason?

Well there is a low bar around here.

I didn't know where else to put this since it's a general statement about the league but since we are so concerned about injuries I decided to put it here. I saw a stat this morning that only 33.8% of all players saw action in every game last year. The rest either were injured, on the practice squad, inactive or never got on the field. I thought that was a really high number. Of the other 66% I'm not sure how many were injured or how many just never got activated. It shows how hard it is to actually be good enough and healthy enough to make it on the field every week.
