Mike Williams Hurt Again.......Torn ACL - Out For The Season

[Bolt-O]

Telesco builds finesse teams. He's afraid to draft players that are tough and resilient. He looks for talent first and toughness last. He had the reputation when he was at Indy. He builds teams that get shoved all over the field by tougher teams like Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Dallas, San Francisco, Cleveland, etc. Name the team and I can point out that they had Defenses that will shove us all over the field. That's why it's idiotic to try for a run up the middle on 4th down close to your own endzone. If I was the owner I would have fired Staley after almost losing the game with that ridiculous call.

It doesn't matter how much talent you have on a team when you have a HC that pulls bonehead plays like Staley did yesterday. He had the game won and yet he literally gift-wrapped a win and gave it to Minn.

You know you are now off topic on your own topic, lol.

I am not advocating for closing the thread. I just feel that sometimes we as fans treat players like chattel, as if they aren't human. Mike has been a really good player and he is a great teammate. He is human. I feel bad for him, it's devastating to suffer an injury like this.

And it's predictable. And talking about closing a thread is what idiotic charger fans do whenever anyone dares to tell the truth about this team.

I hate this thread. This is going to be a very difficult time for Mike Williams, who has always given his all on the field, and fans are on here bashing him.

He's not looking at this thread. So don't worry about that. This thread is the last of his worries.
And this isn't bashing. It's called a reality-check.

I didn't say I would close it. I just think it was premature, as we have no official word, and would be best in the season discussion. Admin decision.

Experts have already decided that it's an ACL. It's just a matter of the official statement to be released.

These players want to play fast and risk their health by not wearing the proper protective equipment and their team suffers.
They don't even wear pads on their knees anymore. They refuse to wear braces.
Mike was too slow to get open....so he felt that any edge helps.

But good coaching and play design can even get slower WRs open. However Mike is double-teamed on almost every play.

Looks like a blown knee. Done for the year. Still not official but that's what I am hearing.

MW often injured but the thread title now looks really lame.

If he's done for the season that is probably his last game as a Charger.

How about we pray for a speedy recovery.

The thread title isn't lame, it's accurate.

Love Mike Williams as a person and player but he has already played his last game as a Charger.

Well why don't you lock me up and throw me in forum prison for daring to talk about a related topic on my own thread, mkay?

I seriously doubt that.

Next year he will be a great player to keep. The guys I think we need to dump are Austin, Bosa, and most of the Defensive line. I'd keep Mack, because he's the only one playing his butt off on every play.
