I'd love to have him for the game, but any time a person's insides start exploding at high altitude, I think I'd err on the side of caution.

if he gets cleared by the docs... get ur (bad word) on the field!
no i would understand him staying home even then.
does any1 know if he is cleared?

According to the article on the front page he is 'in no more danger than anyone else on the team', but I'd probably still keep him home. It's probably the same doctor telling him it's okay to go that couldn't figure out what was wrong with him the last time he went out there.

I agree isn't this the place where this all started, Troy's 2weeks healthier and our 2nd teamers can pick up the rest of the slack, Orton don't have the big arm and he don't run to much we should be fine with the rest of the stuff.

I wouldn't bring him. Denver's offense is pretty lousy at best; they've been living off their defense. we should be able to handle them without him

He's a highly paid pro and if the team doctors clear him to play, then I say their 8 years of med school and residency and practice experience trumps his trepidation.

Yeah buddy

If he is cleared by the docs, I would leave it up to him. Part of the issue is going to be mental, like falling off of a horse. He has decide if he wants to get back on. Someday we may be talking about a playoff game in Denver, and he won't want  to be worrying about it then.

I'd rather have him for the rest of the season, than this one game and then he goes on IR again.

These are the same docs that told him he was making a fuss about nothing the last time because they didn't correcly diagnose the condition, right?  Leading to him having emergency surgery hours later, right?  Yep, I sure trust them docs.
