Probably not what you want to hear - Conner still in protocol.

Wait 'til tomorrow and then start worrying.
 
He will be at practice tomorrow. No worries.

I'm actually not that worried; it looked like a grade 1 concussion to me. He never lost consciousness from what I saw. He should be fine. But until he's cleared....
 
Tomlin said he's practicing tomorrow. We're good.

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said James Conner (concussion) is expected to practice Wednesday.
Conner remains in the concussion protocol, but Tomlin said Wednesday's practice should "lay those discussions to bed." It sounds like Conner will be cleared in the very near future. Assuming Le'Veon Bell does not report Tuesday, Conner will remain an RB1 even in a tough matchup against the Jaguars on Sunday.

Not worried but yet made it a topic.

:highly_amused:
 
Tomlin has said so and so has a little boo-boo before, and the player has been out for weeks. When Conner has a full practice ( Not limited ) then we will know for sure he's okay. Not before or after.

I have liked what I have seen out of Samuels lately. As a back up, he has impressed me. Not sure how he'd look in a full game.

You do this just to see who's paying attention, don't you?
OK, I'll bite. "So and so" was Shazier and Tomlin said this at the beginning of Shazier's career when Shazier was letting every little nick be an excuse not to practice (and hence, not to play). Tomlin was sending a message that in the NFL, everyone has minor injuries and they play through them. It took awhile for Shazier to catch on to the concept.
In any event, a "boo boo" monitored by the team physicians and the trainers is a totally different beast than a concussion. Tomlin may believe Conner will be back based on his observation of him at the facility or even talking to him on the phone (since they don't come back until tomorrow), but the final say is with the folks monitoring the concussion.

Message I got was that he couldn't get out because he needs to be symptom free after activities and they have been off. Should clear tomorrow. Or at least on the road to out.

Tomlin is usually unwilling to speculate about concussions. But it's clear he thinks Conner is good to go. Reading between the lines, what he said at today's presser was essentially "No need to worry, Steeler Nation, James is just fine."

The one exception is when he thinks he is "tricking" the opponent by misleading about an injury, one way or another. It doesn't appear that is the case here.

You're really not very good at being a troll. I know you think you are, but you're on a 3rd-grade level - and that includes your writing level.

You seem confused troll, of course I am not good at being a troll. I am actually a Steelers fan unlike you..

The threads you create show me your reading and writing level. And your opinion means nothing to me. As I said when you troll, I will be ******* with you.

So deal with it, or don't.

I will forgive your lack of the ability to perceive reality; those SSRI drugs can alter perceptions I am told. Why did the docs say you needed to be on them?

Beware. Almost all the mass shooters are on one of these drugs.

Weak smack talk. Like your existence on this board weak. More than likely it is the existence of your life weak.

Perhaps a few of those drugs could help you post less.

Your attempted use of the English language: weak.

Don't let anyone tell you a GED is enough to establish a substantial education. If you turned in the above ramblings to a 9th-grade English class, you would be given the grade of an "F."
