Gameday Injury Updates (merged--MET)

[jly0784]

I just don't know what to make of this medical staff. They messed up with Brown. They messed up with Orakpo, and now they messed up Garcon. Who knows what else. Maybe they DID screw up that idiot Landry.

Dan Snyder stopped bringing in big-name free agents, but now he brings in James Andrews' old ass to collect tons of money and the results have been equally abysmal.

james andrews is on every teams speed dial for a reason, its local dr's that are the teams every day trainers and what not, we send out guys to andrews for major tears..... this is all on the local every day drs

In his presser Shanny just said Garçon has NOT torn a tendon. 'We should know more Wednesday' - whatever that means ......

Could this thing get any more cryptic? I am considering him done for the season until I hear otherwise.

Injury update: we're screwed.

James Andrews is like the #1 surgeon in the sports world. Definitely the team doctors that are failing. And these guys clearly aren't conditioned well enough.

We desperately need a new medical staff. Let me make it perfectly clear that I don't blame them for the injuries. This is football and people are going to get hurt. Diagnosing and getting guys back on field (at the right time) seems to be a major problem for our guys. Landry, Brown, Orakpo, and now Garcon have been handled so poorly. Kory Lichtensteiger had to have another procedure after only a few days into training camp. Lets hope and pray that Fred Davis gets better treatment.

When does Meriiweather get back?

[Die Hard]

They're good at concussions though

[Duckus]

Redskins announce Garcon out at least another 3-4 weeks as they have been accidentally treating the wrong foot for the past several weeks.

I think it is time for questioning our doctors as several players over the years have spoken out with lack of faith in their expertise.

[nuposse87]

We must be recruiting from the wizards medical staff, its getting outright embarrassing. You would think Snyder would have been able to assemble a competent medical staff for a high profile franchise. People oughtta be fired for this. If I'm Pierre or Fred Davis, I'm looking for independent medical consultation. Until some changes are made they shouldn't have to handicap themselves with the skins medical staff.

On a side note, is Meriiweather coming back at all this season or is that pretty much over too?

Lichensteiger is the only Redskins player I've seen come back from major injury. Everyone else has never been the same.

Since Garcon is seemingly out for the year maybe we can bring back the Comb. At least he could ride the exercise bike on the sidelines during practice again. That is unless he's taken it to a new level and is now doing the Tour De France.

Doesn't sound good.
