Missing the playoffs definitely will hurt, but it's pretty much Jimmy's fault. Wait! Before the Tomato's, what I mean is that Jimmy always seems to be hurt. In the Patriots he was hurt on the second game, and with us, it's every other year he's out of commission. If he was healthy in the Titan's game, we win that one. Unfortunately he got hurt in this (I think) first half of the Titan's game and in the 2nd half, is when the interceptions started happening. Now we have to have Trey step in when, maybe, he's not yet quite ready - but it is what it is. I'm kind of glad ShanaLynch had the balls to let Jimmy go and get Trey. If anything, Trey has more pocket awareness and hopefully will avoid those significant injuries that Jimmy seemingly was never able to avoid.
But this injury might win the prize and really should be the final straw. I am not saying his thumb injury is worse than his ankle and knee issues but those came earlier in the season. Not like you are gonna go any where with Nick or CJ but you can try to work thru it.
This injury comes at the end of the season where the final game is required to advance (minus some freaky help). It's BS. And I do feel bad for the guy but every year same old crap. I don't know what might be worse. Jimmy coming in and losing it with his bum thumb and then screw it and good bye or let Trey come in. I think he can do it but I firmly am pissed if we lose that will give him too much offseason to stew. You can't blame the season on Trey if he comes in and loses. Either situation sucks.
But Jimmy, ehh, time to go bud. I would give it to Trey and hope he comes out smelling like a rose.
