Maybe. Since he has been on the show he been surrounded, alone, by walkers a few times and somehow managed to fight his way out with nothing more than some type of hand weapon (not a gun). Even in the latest episode when the kid in cabin forced him to go outside he still managed to kick major zombie behind...unarmed. Tyrese finally snapped and realized the world he is living in.

My guess is that he was a serious mofo in his previous life, perhaps a former SEAL or something. I mean he obviously knows hand-to-hand combat and can take care of his own against multiple assailants.

If he does go out it will be in a blaze of glory, probably by holding off numerous walkers allowing the group to flee.

This whole season is supposed to mainly focus on origin stories (character's backstories) and also be more intertwined with the comic. If it is, my guess is on the "Dr." getting bit.

He wasn't knocked out...his eyes were open like a dead person. I could be wrong but I don't think so...
Well, you saw what he did to the walkers outside, right? My guess is that he seriously bludgeoned the dude to death with his hands. Perhaps it was a little too gruesome to even show on TWD? I mean, if you saw what the zombies looked like when they were outside...it's called a metaphor.

Uh, no. Plenty of cast members who are still alive have been on TTD. Now when they come on after they are killed off...

Look at it again. Then google images of white power tattoos.

He should have died at least four times at the hands of walkers, and has yet to. The guy has so far managed to fight his way out every time. Heck, there was even a point in time when he wanted to die, just didn't care anymore. My guess is that before the zombie apocalypse he did something gruesome that he regrets. Perhaps he was in Afghanistan or Iraq? Say what you want about his survival skills but the guy obviously knows how to handle himself. To add, he seems to have a problem with killing zombies. My guess is that it is not because he is weak, or too kind-hearted, but because of what-ever he did before all of this.

Speaking of Carol...she's gonna get it next. In terms of story arc and character development it is her time to go. She began as a secondary character, the abused wife, lost her child and then become a true survivor at all costs. When Rick found out she killed Tyrese's GF, and banned her from the group, she was then gone for half of Season 4. She came back in the Season 5 five premier and not only redeemed herself but also encouraged Tyrese to become more like her.

On the last episode of The Talking Dead, the producer and writer did say that next Sunday's episode is when they all spend some time catching up with each other. My guess is that Tyrese will find out that Carol killed his GF, and then kill her. The arc comes to a close, Tyrese becomes Carol, full circle.

Tyrese already knows what Carol did from their time at the Cabin prior to Lizzie's death.

I like Tyrese, he's attempting to hold on to his humanity as long as possible and doing what needs to be done when absolutely necessary. What I like about him is that he clearly could snap anyone's neck BUT he's the gentle giant, nurturer, and protector. Where-ever he goes he wants to help, keep his sis safe, and when he found it, be in love. It's a good contrast considering there are already so many bad-@ssets on the show as it is.

That conversation was already had between Carol and Tyrese the end of season 4. Though the relationship was strained, they're over that hump and now after the premiere episode's incidences, they seem on better terms.

We all know Tyreese was a small time thug turned good who owned a boxing gym in Baltimore before SHTF. Good fighter, not a great thinker.

Okay but that's still a time waster, and potentially dangerous. You can not deny the fact that it would be easier to just move away in the opposite direction and put distance between them.

I also don't remember Andrea still having the handcuffs on. She got out of them right when Milton pounced on her.

EDIT: Yeah, she still had them on, just watched it. And Andrea shot herself with Rick's gun.

In the comics Tyreese is a former NFL player and steps in as Rick's right hand man after Shane is killed. Tyreese's weapon of choice for zombie killing is a hammer. The Tyreese in the comics has a teenaged daughter with a boyfriend. I don't want to give away too much in case some of you plan to read the comics.

I watch the show and have read all of the comics. Some of the characters in the show are very similar to their characters in the comics but some are not. The Andrea in the comics is a far better character than the one on the TV show. The Governor in the comics is far more evil than the one in the TV show.

I watched the Talking Dead after the season premiere and was glad that more of the story lines from the comics will be in the show this season. Some of the story lines from the comics are woven into the show but through different characters. The show and comic series are both interesting nonetheless. Those of you who love the show should check out the comic series.
