Pro Football Doc Says Odell Will Be Limited At Best Week 1

Beckham?

"Based on videos of practice."

Twitter feed. He is like 95% accurate at diagnosing injuries live during games just based on what he sees on TV/replays. Wouldn't discredit what he says just b/c he hasn't examined him.

who has never even looked at beckhams ankle can say if he will play or wont play on sunday is absolutely absurd to me...

no wonder the dude almost lost his medical license

.

to just NOT have any more threads about who thinks OBJ will or won't play Sunday?

Let's just let it play out, fercrisakes.

What exactly is incredible about his track record?

or legit docs. If you think Beckham is NOT going to be limited these next 2-3 weeks you're probably setting yourself up for disappointment. I don't think he even plays Sunday but you never know I guess.

He's definitely going to be limited. The guy hasn't practiced in two weeks.

is the worst. Comes on twitter and talks about every injury the second after it happened. I'm pretty sure he went on immediately and talked about Odell's knee after the hit and was already diagnosing it. The fact that anyone follows or listens to this guy is silly.

His ability to almost always correctly diagnose injuries from his couch.

odell must have a high ankle because he wasnt on the field 2 days after the injury, how can you possibly know that?

Where did you get that 95% figure? Did you match his tweets with the eventual diagnosis by the relevant team doctors?

95%?? Based on what, a guy going down and holding his knee AS SOON as he plants (like Edelman) and then Chao saying "man, I fear that's the dreaded ACL for Edelman."

I'm about a million miles away from being a doctor and I could do what this idiot does on twitter.

he almost lost his medical license for malpractice

sued for malpractice, and accused of gross negligence by the CA state medical board.

Can we please stop posting him as a credible source?

Siting his source with the Giants, said today on his show: "Beckham will not play"

Dude, 95% is 95%. That's an A+ in most schools.

Haha, Cowherd's Giant source.

in the NFL..

but one thing is most likely, he'll be managing this the entire season, imo..That's the usual expectation re injuries such as this. Of course he could be that proverbial exception

But it covers a pretty broad range of ability.

If he plays, the question is, how effective of a decoy can he be?

Twitter Josh at it again. 95%? Stop pulling numbers out of your ass.

I heard it was only malpractice 5% of the time.

A lot of this is gamesmanship.

Could you imagine preparing to play a team with or without it's best player? It's like preparing for 2 different offenses.

Beckham is up for the charade because he loves the attention and the "Will he/ Won't he" bit.

It's what I call the Roethlisberger move. Suffer an injury- float how bad it is or act like it's worse than it is by limping up the field (Ben) or collapsing in the tunnel when you see a camera following you in (Odell). Then the media hypes you up as a tough guy. For a guy who has a reputation around the league of being a little "soft" if not other things, this is a calculated move by Gmen and Odell together.

Note that I am NOT saying that he isn't hurt- we all saw what happened, but all indications were that he was walking around fine the next day. That was 2 weeks ago. What happened since then?

Ah look, another crock of shit. Way to project buddy!

But he's literally a twitter doctor at this point. It's dumb to place a lot of weight on his opinion.

If this is "inside info" of yours, then I'm 100% confident it's BS.

Not sure it gets any more ridiculous than this bit...

"Note that I am NOT saying that he isn't hurt- we all saw what happened, but all indications were that he was walking around fine the next day. That was 2 weeks ago. What happened since then?"

Gee, I don't know.. maybe it could be that walking around and playing NFL football at full speed are like.. two COMPLETELY different things? Nothing changed.

Your posts are brutal.

Also, can we stop posting garbage from this quack doctor? There's a reason why he's making these bullshit diagnosis' from his couch and not for a team.

I thought that was a standard practice?

That he almost lost his medical license. He was barred from practicing surgery at two San Diego hospitals that are believed to have led to him resigning from his position with the chargers. He also was in trouble for prescribing Ambien to junior Seau up until his suicide.

I'd say that's incredible

Sounds about right. Last time I sprained my ankle, my doctor asked me to text her a video of it.

Not entirely sure why she needed me to be naked for it, but I'm no medical expert.

The word "incredible" has several meanings. They aren't all good.

I unsubscribed to her Youtube channel after she posted it.

I haven't examined him so I'll just STFU.

Also shows the incompetence of the Chargers. I can see why eli didn't want to go there.

Don't get me wrong Beckham may sit, but there's no way any medical professional can make a diagnosis from a YouTube video

to be an exact figure. I was using it as a phrase to say he's right almost every time just based on what he sees on TV. Either way, the guy knows what he's talking about more than any sports reporter or general fan.

I would rather Sit Beckham for a week or 2 and wait until hes 100% then have him have lingering issues all season

I'm sure the Giants doctors will be perfectly capable of handling this without any input from this fucking garbage Dr. Twitter.

have to say unless Slefrak's opinion concurs.

are as disreputable and ignorant as Dr Chao

...how do we know Dr. Chao ISN'T slefrak?

Was able to judge past Presidents health just from pics

No credible doctor would ever comment on a player without examining him. Poor form. Who knows if Odell plays but this guy is a joke.

I thought plato is slefrak??

All we need is a confirmation that Odell is walking badly from that fuckstick to prove it.

Diagnosing an injury on TV is one thing. Determining the severity weeks later based on video from practice is another. I used to be very accurate diagnosing injuries watching games after taking a spoets medicine class in college.

FTFY

frequently? I seem to recall players saying that once in the heat of the game they didn't even notice the pain. I'm thinking of the game that a lot of older fans remember where Emmitt Smith played with one arm and killed the Giants, although he must have had pain in the other arm.

Or, if the player plays through it, is it likely that the injury will just become more painful and the player risks missing more games than if he had just waited for the sprain to completely heal?

The hosts says that they and the press only get to see about 5 - 10 minutes of practice. I'd that's the case OBJ could be practicing.
