December 13, 200619 yr No other player has done it, not just Bengal... Rudi doesn't get in, IMO. I think Rudi can play his way in over the next three weeks. I don't think he's in right now...
December 14, 200619 yr I'm not trying to change the topic of the thread, but has anyone heard any news on David Pollack?
December 14, 200619 yr I'm not trying to change the topic of the thread, but has anyone heard any news on David Pollack?He had a doctor's appointment today. He'll decide if he's going to play again based on what comes out of that doctor visit.
December 14, 200619 yr He had a doctor's appointment today. He'll decide if he's going to play again based on what comes out of that doctor visit. I don't expect him to ever play again. Find him a spot on the staff Marvin...
December 14, 200619 yr I don't expect him to ever play again. Find him a spot on the staff Marvin...Per Pollack, "At the end of it, if the doctor says I'm 5% more likely to get injured again, there's a 0% chance I'll ever play again. That's a fact."
December 14, 200619 yr If Pollack were to come back do any of you think he might just get switched back down to defensive end and stop the linebacker experiement. Because I mean with this injury, it will be more mental than what Palmer dealt with his knee, because any time he goes to tackle a guy it probably will be in the back of his head. The reason I ask if you all think he might get switched back to his normal college position is because at DE he probably wouldn't have as many head on collisions as he would at linebacker. At linebacker alot of the times you have to tackle the runningback when he is at full speed. And I know at DE he still is going to have some head on collisions, but probably wouldn't be as violent of collisions and could maybe he a little easier for him to deal with Mentally. Not to mention since there is not a good chance that Justin Smith will be back, and with the way Jeanty is playing, I think we could just move him down to DE for good if he comes back. So I was wondering if anyone else thought that this could be a possibility... Honestly though I dont see him coming back, and I wouldn't blame him one bit if he decided not to play even if he was 100% healthy...

If he is smart he will wait a long time before he puts on another football helmet. I wish him the best.
