Tour2ma Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 Darnold had "Mono"... a/k/a "the kissing disease"... Trevor Siemian, recent Elway savior turned castoff, is the NYJ backup. Numbers he racked up in Denver are decent... for a backup. And our history vs. backups is littered with bad results. Once upon a time it seemed that whenever we knocked out a starter, the #2 beat us. I doubt Gase is going to put the game on Trevor's shoulders. Expect them to "pound the rock" early and often. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob806 Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 This is a game the Browns have to win. Don't screw it up or the endless draft talk is going to start early. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expect a heavy dose of our old Steeler pal Le'Veon Bell.... Who's also ailing... Couple other Jets grounded too... If we can't beat this team... Well, it just might be time for us to push the panic button....  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibleedbrown Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 Mono can really knock you down and sap your strength. Darnold may miss a few more games before he’s up to snuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvozel Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 New York Post... "In addition to Sam Darnold being out against the Browns with mono, Le’Veon Bell isn’t practicing Thursday because of a sore shoulder and will get an MRI exam, head coach Adam Gase said, leaving his status for Week 2 up in the air."

mjp28 Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 WebMD..... Mononucleosis, often called "mono," is an illness caused by the Epstein-Barr virus. When mono occurs during adolescence or adulthood, symptoms are more severe --high fever that can last up to three weeks, swollen lymph glands in the back of the neck, and severe sore throat. Rare but major complications that can develop from mono include rupture of the spleen. Follow the links below to find WebMD's comprehensive coverage about how mononucleosis is contracted, what it looks like, how to treat it, and much more...... ~~~~~~~~~~~ The Jets might be screwed for awhile.

SdBacker80 Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 I don’t know how much of a difference Sam Darnold makes.  I was banking on a fumble and a couple errant throws in the second half when they Time actually calls for him to throw the ball down field. espn loves them some Darnold but the jets have protected him for over a year now and the offense has always been very safe and QB friendly Like his backup we have to be ready for the dunk and dunk offense.  The problem with Mono your organs are under stress specifically the spleen if you have a bad case it’s enlarged and one hit to the area and you are in surgery for a ruptured spleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My buddy got mono senior year high school (12 years ago, to be fair) and they would absolutely not let him play football (or any contact sport) for a month based on his spleen being "sensitive". That didn't have to do with his case being severe, just standard practice, On top of that as you've noted, this really has almost pneumonia type symptoms. I have zero clue how they treat this nowadays, but I'd bet he misses a full month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiggins7919 Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 This is now the perfect storm. The Monday night, the backup QB, the being favored to win.... This is Scott Mitchell against the Browns in 1993 all over again. Oh yeah, I totally remember. Dan Marino gets injured and Browns are going to win the game, but nooooo....Scott Mitchell comes in and somehow leads the Dolphins to victory. Anybody know the Browns record against backup QBs? Isn't it like 1-107, with the one victory coming against Charlie Whitehurst and the Titans? We ALWAYS make backup QBs look like Kurt Warner and I hope to God it doesn't happen again. In fact, I'd RATHER play Sam Darnold than Simien, and it's not close. Darnold completed 56 passes last week for 116 yards or something like that. I'm totally cool with that, but what I DON'T want is some guy coming in with something to prove who is going to push the ball all over the field (or at least try to). Laugh all you want, but this sounds like it could be the Brownsiest game ever. Lord I hope not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Because your spleen may become enlarged as a result of infectious mononucleosis, you should avoid contact sports until you fully recover. Participating in contact sports can be strenuous and may cause the spleen to rupture." You can bet the Jets Docs will do an ultrasound on Sam to check on his spleen before they let him resume contact... A ruptured spleen can be life threatening due to internal blood loss....  2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icecube Posted September 12, 2019 Report Share Posted September 12, 2019 Browns win easy, but then here comes back all the over-hype which hurts them like in week 1. OBJ is really gonna want to excel with the game being in NYC. He wants to make the fans sorry he was traded out of NY, even though this isn't the team who did it.  Jets secondary is terrible. Bakes should rip it to shreds. I'm gonna say, Browns 24, NY 13. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
