Saban saying Fitzpatrick won't practice...

[DAWGS1.sixpack]

today and maybe tomorrow but should play.

 

[Shmuley]

He actually said that he “... won’t practice today but should be good to go by tomorrow.” So he will practice this week.

Why is Saban commenting on the status of our QB??**

I thought he was for about 5 seconds.

He actually didn't say this. He said,"won't practice today should be able to do somethings tomorrow."

what are "things" ?

nobody fully recovers from a hamstring in a week. If he plays, I'd attack him deep on the first play.

If he truly tweaked his hamstring as it looked Saturday, you don't come back from that in a week unless you're Superman or Deadpool. He may play, but he will not be 100% and will be running a great risk of injuring it worse. I bet he doesn't play and this is gamesmanship from Saban. He's not gonna want to risk losing Fitzpatrick for the season when he can sit him for a couple of weeks and get him back for Auburn and the playoffs.

I could be wrong though.

He might play but he won’t be near 100%. A hamstring never fully heals and is always a nagging injury.

It doesn't matter.

Who's our uninjured deep threat?? Whoever it is....they can't beat Bama's 2nd string guy.

I've pulled one mildly and tried to get back on it that quick in my younger soccer years. Took me about 5 minutes to realize if i don't stop now i'm going to rip it in half. had about one good 30 yard sprint in it. You just can't do anything on a hamstring injury, That's why the term being hamstrung exists... Short of juicing and some hardcore anti-inflamatory drugs on gameday, i dunno anything to get it back up to game speed in 7 days. If it were just cramps that is a different ballgame. Those can be treated and quickly

It's a big deal. He's arguably their best player, definitely their best defensive player, and he's all over the field when healthy. He's great at coming up and stuffing the run, he's got tremendous instincts, and he's a great tackler. If he can't go, they will plug in another 5 star, but it will be a steep step back from what Fitzpatrick gives them.

First play of the game line up Brandon Bryant across from him and say "Brandon, go run right by that sumbitch as fast as you can".

We'll know right away how healthy he is.

I do not know if merlinz has that trick. Its nice though.

Literally took me over ten seconds to come up with Fitzgerald's name after this.
