PoconoDon Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Well, well, well. I hope he makes a speedy and full recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBW Posted December 16, 2023 Author Share Posted December 16, 2023 And Maddox was back at practice so I’m guessing we’ll see him back soon. I’m thinking the timing of the surgery wasn’t a coincidence if he’s coming back. It that he’s anything special but he’s a body that knows the defense.

time2rock Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Bummer as he has been our best DB. But hopefully the rest from the time off does his body good for the playoff stretch. And will give some of the younger CBs some valuable play time (hopefully Ricks … not a fan of playing him inside, I’d prefer him outside). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah so this could have been bugging him for a while and got to the point where he needed to do something about it. Could explain some of the lack of effort and avoidance of contact we’ve seen recently. So hopefully it’s fixed and he’ll be back to his normal self come playoffs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimm Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Sucks. But if we can get a Maddox back and a well rested Slay for the playoffs that would be huge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, how do we rest Jalen Carter for the playoffs who seems to have hit the rookie "wall”- maybe play more Ojomo or Tuipolotu? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOTW Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 He probably pushed through for the Cowboys game, then to rest before playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LacesOut Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Yeesh. I also heard that Jurgens and the LB Cunningham might not be playing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychodog Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Greaaaaaaat. As if we don’t have enough problems with our DBs. Metcalf and Lockett are probably licking their chops. 🙁 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.WATSfromda757 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 It’s Ringo TIME!!! He should match up better with Metcalf. Him and Ricks taking turns on the outside now. Now we’ll see what they’ve got. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrfierce Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 Slay said he had nightmares about playing against DK. Probably took the surgery so he didn’t have to face him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penn7980 Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 That is a surprise, not a word before. Without Slay, our CBs are really thin with rookies and underachieving Bradberry. Seahawks has good WRs and will test our secondary. The DL becomes more critical for the Sunday game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleMatt Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 Hopefully Isaiah Rogers gets reinstated next season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiwinavega Posted December 17, 2023 Share Posted December 17, 2023 I'd be more worried if we were facing a good QB. It's a chance to see whatsome of the youngsters have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
