No Surgery for Eric Berry




Thought this might deserve it's own thread.

No. He played IN three games towards the end of the year, one game of that for like two or three plays max. He still missed an entire playoff game in between, and looked like a 50 year old Eric Berry in the other. Big difference.

But, if the docs and Berry himself thinks he can go and be who he was, that doesn't hurt us in any way. Hope they're right.

Berry needs to restructure if he's going to stay. Absolute necessity at this point.

He hasn't made a meaningful play since 2016... it's probably time to see the writing on the wall.
Are you saying we should NOT believe the DOCTORS?

He hadn't played for over a year and missed most of pre-season training. He was never gonna be back to his best or back to full fitness In the last few weeks of the season.

I would rather give a big contract to a player already on the team who played at a high level and have the contract be a bust because of injuries. Berry and Houston fit that description.

As opposed to a player who got paid and quit (I'm looking at you Bowe) or a player who got a big contract and never performed before or after (Tyson Jackson comes to mind although the rookie cap is different now).

I'm nervous about tying up a big cap hit into Hill. But I would rather pay Hill big bucks and see him go down with an injury than sign some high priced free agent that goes down. As far as the team going forward, it wouldn't make any difference. But Hill is currently grossly underpaid, so I would rather see dead money go to a player that helped KC out than a free agent.

Yes but he was still coming off a major injury, this year he won't be.

At least when Gronk clowns him again next year, 29 can always get up and fake limp to the sideline.

Sure.

But now there's a way to not have to do any of that crap. Now there's a way to acknowledge the sunk costs of Berry's ill-conceived extension and mitigate the remainder of the damage it can do.

It's time to pull the chute on EB.

So an injury that kept Eric Berry out from August until December, and forced him to miss a playoff game is not your definition of a "major injury"?
