Wow, I resurrected this thread with a positive outlook on Dunta's recovery and rehab and within a couple posts it turns South.

I think it's just that this team has been burned so many times in the past with contracts that came back to bite us, even with ones that looked good at the time. Dom Davis deserved his extension. You know the rest.
That said, Dunta's injury is different, and I would love for him to come back this season and show his worth. If anyone can, he can. |

Honestly, I don't think Dunta wants to go anywhere. This team is finally heading uphill, he has been waiting for that for some time now. No reason to leave when the getting is good.
Not only that we have Bennett here who is an old friend/teamate of Dunta. Last edited by TexansSeminole; 03-07-2008 at 02:24 PM. |

It is news to read that an injured player wants to be back...better news if medical evidence supported the player's claim.

Its not the kinda thing you can play with when its not totally right. I'd rather see him miss all of next season, than try and come back too early and face another layoff. |

I saw him running on the news last night and though it is light running and all I didn't notice any gimp or anything to show that he might still be a little nervous. I'm thinking he is trying to get back by the first month and not midway through the season. I'm sure with a contract on the horizon and all he would like to get there as soon as possible.

The thing that will help Dunta out is that he is under 200 lbs...

Here are some quotes from Dunta off HT.com. I don't think you can get a more positive attitude than Dunta has right now.
Normally I end up with man crushes on Dlinemen, but I love this guy. Quote:

I was encouraged to see him running too. I know he said he wants to make it back by the first month of the season, but I think realistically we should be looking at the middle of the season at best for his return to the field. It is good to see that his rehab is going well, and seems to be a little ahead of schedule.
