Detroit Lion Malcom Rodriguez Torn ACL - Doctor Reacts

[@D_2387]

The injuries are unbelievable at this point. I am having doubts that a roster this depleted can make a deep playoff run come post season. Can only say "next man up" so many times before there is nobody left. We are dangerously close to that point

[@Fallingfloors97]

It's the NFL 100% injury rate. Injuries aren't an excuse for not making a playoff run.

[@D_2387]

@Fallingfloors97 there is not another team that has this many starters out on IR. You can rely on tired phrases such as "injuries aren't an excuse" or "it's apart of the game" all you want. The bottom line is that at a certain point it is 100% a factor, and when enough of your key starters are all out for the year/an extended period of time, you are absolutely at a disadvantage over the teams that stayed healthy, and it is 100% the reason why some teams collapse at the end of the year. The injuries are too much to overcome at a certain point. The team is good because of the players. When those players that make the team good go down, the team is no longer as good.

Looks like his foot slipped a little bit when planting. This new turf is absolutely garbage. We should be protecting our players

[@kennethsanders6096]

Rodrigo my boy fr. Now we gotta win for it him 💯

[@Jay-n262]

For him and about 10 other key players that are on IR. Injuries are piling up.

NFL Should have 2 Bye Weeks

This season's BS aside, imagine how f*cking scary this roster's gonna be next season....

[@Ragtime4]

As long as they prioritize saving a few bucks by having artificial turf instead of natural grass, this will be the result
