Well to be fair the people saying that have something to base it on - the track record of past RBs - even if it goes years back. There should be some skepticism until there is a sample size proving otherwise. You’re a very smart poster but this is all simple logicWell my point is it's no more faulty then what I keep hearing people say which is show me the RB who returned from this injury. Because we have no recent examples. Same thing. I'm pushing back on that faulty narrative.I mean you can look at it however you choose but you know what I meant and I continue to stand behind my point 100% as I have since last August for Akers and later Robinson when I have continually said that people were over-reacting calling them done.Isn't this like asking someone to prove a negative?show me the young RB in recent years with modern medicine whose career was never the same afterwards
But your point comes down to "I don't think an achilles injury matters anymore, because we have not seen any examples recently, so therefore we have no negative data and that's a positive". That seems to be faulty logic whether you're ultimately right or not.
It's a long season, so I guess we'll see.
Hopefully Achilles injuries do become a non-issue because RBs have it hard enough.
