Which Bell?! - The Orange Mane

Hootie · 11-10-2006, 10:07 PM

Mike or Tatum!??!

I must know.

Whisky. Tango. Foxtrot.

Dude, where are your blowfish?

69bronco · 11-10-2006, 10:27 PM

Who cares? both of will play. Which ever one can run better against raiders D will get the most carries.

Drek · 11-10-2006, 10:32 PM

I don't see why people keep asking this question.

When healthy earlier this very year Tatum was putting up big games. Last year he had nearly 1K yardage as our #2 back and broke some huge game winning runs.

Mike is real willing to dive over the pile and has a few decent runs this year.

Where's the tough call here? Tatum by a country mile until Mike Bell proves something more and/or Tatum stops producing (when healthy).

I'd personally like to see Cecil Sapp get more carries from the FB position as well. He won't break big runs but it'd be a change of pace for defenses that they can't key in on like swapping Tatum for Mike or Cobbs.

Who cares? I imagine fantasy owners might care, just a little.

But, IMO, thats what they get for drafting a Bronco RB not named TD.

Tatum Bell has Turf Toe...it typically means flesh has seperated from the bone....he's not going to be effective when he plays. This is madness....sit him.

Ouch. I didn't realize turf toe entailed that sort of serious stuff. Nasty.

he said on ESPN radio wensday or tuesday that he was 80% and the other 20% was just pain not ability.

Turf Toe
What is turf toe?
Turf toe is a condition of pain at the base of the big toe, located at the ball of the foot. The condition is usually caused from either jamming the toe, or pushing off repeatedly when running or jumping. The most common complaint is pain at the base of the toe, but you may also have symptoms of stiffness and swelling.
The name turf toe comes from the fact that this injury is especially common among athletes who play on artificial turf. The hard surface of artificial turf, combined with running and jumping in football and soccer, make turf toe a frequent consequence of Astroturf play.

What happens to the toe in turf toe?
When a player sustains a turf toe injury they are actually tearing the capsule that surrounds the joint at the base of the toe. Tearing this joint capsule can be extremely painful. Furthermore, tear of the joint capsule can lead to instability and even dislocation of the joint at the base of the toe. This may lead to accelerated cartilage wear and arthritis of the big toe (hallux rigidus).

What is the treatment of turf toe?
The diagnosis of turf toe is not difficult, but X-rays may be taken to ensure there is no fracture. Treatment of turf toe consists of resting the sore toe, icing the area, and elevating the foot; anti-inflammatory medications may be recommended by your doctor. Athletes diagnosed with turf toe should avoid their sport for about three weeks to allow the joint capsule to heal. Once returning to activities, special inserts can be used to limit the motion of the big toe and prevent further damage to the joint capsule.

Unfortunately, turf toe can return, and rehabilitation may be slow. Surgery is rarely needed for treatment of turf toe, but in certain cases it may be helpful. If a bone spur forms, and severely limits motion of the toe joint, surgery to remove the spur may be helpful.

It's a very painful thing to have and is almost futile to attempt to play with it.

Ovviously we need to give to our leading rusher from last week...

Javon Walker.

BroncoBuff · 11-11-2006, 06:00 AM

Yeah, he's just a FF player ...

azbroncfan · 11-11-2006, 01:11 PM

You should know better than to have either Bell on your fantasy team. RBBC isn't good for FF, Portis was the last FF star in Denver and MA was serviceable

Killericon · 11-11-2006, 01:20 PM

Mike. Tatum's injured, and we know Mike can get the job done...especially against Oakland.

Sodak · 11-11-2006, 09:02 PM

I wonder if the turf toe problem has gotten better now that the astroturf teams have switched to field turf.?

Hootie · 11-12-2006, 09:41 AM

well apparently you guys are ****ing idiots and I won't be coming back here anytime soon because according to what I've read Mike is going to be inactive.

Thanks for the help, though...****wads.

Thanks for coming and don't let the door hit you in the ass when you leave. BTW I doubt the Denverpost is correct, so chew on that.

I'm glad we didn't tell him about Damien Nash. Hopefully his opponent will pick him up instead.
