Skattebo’s Big Moment

[Chris_Sanders]

Az basically has nothing to root for right now, as far as sports are concerned

Our former Coyotes are hilariously great @puckhead called it. We lost them right before the rebuild went nuts

Dark times in Phoenix sports…

Bummer for the Skattsbros

Oh I’ll be rooting but for nothing or draft positioning. Nothing has changed

The key take away is, I will be rooting

The Giants were never the same once Skattebo went down. It was sad to see for sure. He did manage to make it to week 8. Had we drafted him, he would have been injured before week 1

Need to enjoy him while we can. The way he runs doesn't lend itself to longevity.

Wow. This aged well. Yes.

Wow. This aged well. Yes.

Ironically it was a questionable tackle on a routine play that knocked him out and not some crazy reckless kind of play.

Cam Skattebo got special hospital delivery from Eagles’ Big Dom

Eagles chief of security Dom DiSandro popped by to check in on injured Giants rookie Cam Skattebo in the hospital and made sure to make the NFC East rival feel at home.

When the Eagles are sending care packages to a Giants player, it shows you how big of an Impact that Cam has had on the league already.

This was thoughtful. A lot of people took to Skattebo's enthusiastic style of play.

There's a story from before the game where Eagles DT Jordan Davis(who I wanted us to draft) said he loved competing against Cam and told him after the first game that exact thing. Said there's not many RB's like him in the NFL he takes on defenders, looks for contact, doesn't run out of bounds etc. As a DL I respect the way he plays and we play them twice a year so I told him it's going to be fun going against him for years to come.

Yeah I think that's likely the case.

I saw something online today that said that but I haven't seen confirmation.

Just the way it was facing when they showed the replay makes just a dislocation seem unlikely

What I saw today said they expect him to be at camp next year so they do expect him to play next year

Philly doesn't suck as much as a lot of you may think. Deric/Philly Card knows this. There is a reason behind the Brotherly Love description and this is part of it.

I hope Cam makes a full recovery though I suspect he won't play next season.

I don't doubt that defenders have read the scouting report and know they need to play physical to get him to the ground.

The way he plays kinda demands that defenses have to hit him.

He's an admirable player, he not only goes all out on every play, but goes a bit above and beyond, kinda regardless of the situation. It's his best attribute and, by far, the reason he got into the league, but I think it also almost guarantees that he won't be around long.

I'm hoping for the best.

Skattebo brings a whole level of excitement to football and plays the game the way it should be played, with heart.

If you read the article that I posted said that he should be ready for next year no problem.

Always the media sis! They pounce on the stories that are negative, but how many outlets have highlighted this story? We're passionate but not sub-human. (SOME eagles fans are though. LMAO!)

I've read articles say that he will be ready next season, but I'd rather be conservative than expect too much.

Love his aggressiveness. Scouts were concerned about the bigger, faster, stronger NFL profiles.
