My Edwards Concussion Theory

by kai11 on Oct 27, 2009 9:48 PM EDT Comment 17 comments

My theory: When Edwards reenters the lineup, he will be back to his old pre-concussion form from last year when the Bills were 4-0. Why, you may ask? My theory is based on the "Tom and Jerry phenomenon" --when one concussion offsets the other. (Imagine Tom getting pummeled in the head with a wooden mallet. His eyes cross and stars begin to revolve around his head. BUT, after an errant anvil plunks off his noggin--instead of causing further injury--he is, instead, cured from his concussed state.) All Edwards needed was this second concussion. No more crossed eyes, no more stars, no more check-downs. Here we come playoffs!

Yes it makes sense.

Dick Jauron should have thought of this earlier and tried to concuss him during training camp……..once again Dick Jauron proves his incapable of coaching!

If that was the case, wouldn’t Trent Green have had intermittent periods of solid performance rather than a steady decent into mediocrity.

Of course, at this point, yours is probably the best case scenario.

Which brings up the really problem......

Trent Edwards needs to change his name from Trent.
Trent Green had tons of concussions.
Trent Dilfer also had a concussion during his career.

Finally......someone has figured out Trent's problem

I vote we change his name to Peyton or Tom :-)

i agree

I actually think sitting out, is good for Trent. I hope the concussions don’t have long term health risks for Trent, as he is a fine young man, and has a great set of locks. But I think seeing the team succeed without him could be the elixir that cures Trent’s ills.

I think the Elixir to cure Trent's ails.

Is draft a QB next year.

Chargers fans were starting to sour on Brees by year 3.

They draft Phillip Rivers, that seemed to light a fire under him and Brees really started to come around and respond.

There's not a wide receiver who is fast enough, that J.P. Losman can't overthrow him on a fly pattern.

I prefer calling it the Homer Simpson Crayon Corollary

Classic episode of Simpsons, when Homer discovered he isn’t intelligent because he put a crayon in his nose, and it went to his brain. Doctors removed and he became a genius and developed a nice relationship with Lise, but was excluded by his old friends, and his intelligence brought lots of problems that he didn’t have before. In the end he choose to put a crayon back in his nose and came back to his usual intelligence.

good expanation. I prefer the allusion to an actual concussion, but this works too.

What a blogging site!

I laughed at Kai11’s post while secretly hoping he is right. Then I read Kurupt’s post, laughed and secretly hoping he is right. I love this blog.
