I really don't know what more people want from McVay. He's not a doctor, doesn't have a magic crystal ball, etc. I feel like he always puts the team first in his communications, and I definitely wouldn't want it any other way.
Yeah the only injury that I remember them being very coy about was Gurley, but I felt like they were doing it for him. And they were using the technical truth (arthritis isn't an everyday thing so sometimes he was hurting and sometimes he wasn't). Mcvay and Snead are often a little too open and honest to me lol
That was my first thought as well. Going from resting your back and not throwing a football in over a month to throwing 68 passes can be a strain on those muscles you haven't used in a while.
Quite a few people mentioned that he was moving pretty gingerly.
Agreed. At least we have a top notch backup that can win games (if he doesn't get hurt too).
I remember the shot. He was definitely talking to somebody on the sideline when he did that and I took it to be he was joking around. JMHO.
It's not surprising. Epidurals are given in series of threes.....usually 5 - 7 days apart. I had them twice. The first time, my back felt brand new the day after I got the first one. The second time it wasn't until the second shot that it felt better and really not brand new until I got the third one. They lasted about a year before issues arose again.....and I was doing very physical labor.
They amaze me. In today's interview McVay was explaining the reason for assistants coaching during preseason is to showcase their talents for opportunities around the league. McVay really does understand the long game, and I've seen no evidence he doesn't genuinely care about "the human being first."
I mean training camp has been going on for almost a month now. McVay said Stafford would be day-to-day first and then week-to-week and at this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if he pulled an Andrew Luck on us and retired before the season.
