Watched WNDU-TV sports tonight and they showed Floyd catching passes!!! Wonder if they bring him back this weekend or wait until Pitt game?

wait until Pitt. He's been practicing in pads and catching passes since the week before USC. They need to work him back in slowly. No need to rush it and get him hurt again.

Err the Boss stated that he wouldn't be back until after the MRI on Nov 2nd.

Wouldn't mind seeing him against Navy just so he has some game experience before Pitt.

Springsteen commented on Floyd's Nov. 2nd MRI?

they said he could be back as early as Navy, which i think i would prefer just for the fact that he could get back into game speed before going into a hostile stadium and Pitt will be a tough game.

so rather than that being his first game back from an injury. he could even just get sprinkled in here and there in the Navy game just to get a feel for game speed. and to get the first game jitters back from such an injury.

I agree with getting him some time vs. Navy. Let him shake off the rust before playing in a big game like Pitt.

I wouldn't worry about Floyd. The guy is a flat out gamer. I would rather he stay healthy than come back too early and get rocked and be lost for the rest of the season + bowl game.

My thoughts exactly.

Floyd needs to stay healthy. The injuries add up and can ruin your career, a la Charles Rogers (though that was also a combination of drugs and problems with the law).

Yes but do you think he will play this week?

If they do, I hope that it's just a few up and out routes to make catches right before going out of bounds or something of the sort. No need to take any big hits or make blocks until truly needed .... that being the Pitt game. I'm more concerned about our 'D' controlling Navy's run game than I am about ND's ability to score (even w/o Floyd).
