How is RGIII?

[Vrikk]

Are we screwed? It's an honest question. Did we just lose our franchise QB? When he returns, will he be a shadow of what he could have been?

...this isn't the same knee he tore in college...is it?

Good. And they just reminded everybody on ESPN's Outside the Line, "This is the same field that Peterson tore his ACL."

The turf has nothing to do with Gomes putting his helmet right into APS knee.

It is the same knee.

I cant believe Im a 32 year old grown man on a message board hitting refresh like a madman. Why am I doing this?

Yes.

I would love to hear Mike Shanahan attempt to sing karaoke.

Good. And they just reminded everybody on ESPN's Outside the Line, "This is the same field that Peterson tore his ACL."

I heard this stuff last night too. They were saying Peterson and someone else also tore their ACL's. Both Peterson, and whoever it was that I can't remember now, got injuries that had nothing to do with the turf. They both took helmets to the knee.

Sounds like their going in tomorrow and we will find out what the fix and healing time is tomorrow....

[E-Dog Night]

Some of the speculation here, guys saying what is and what is not the condition of the knee to firing Shanahan.......All I can say is....

Couldn't agree more.

When I had both my MRI's after the doctors were done with it I was handed a huge folder with over 100 different pictures of my knee at different angles and depths. Pretty sure they can have somewhat of a good idea of the injury.

Correct, they have a good idea of what may "potentially" be wrong.

But they don't want to say it's say a complete tear when the MRI is inconclusive for partial or complete tear because of said inconsistencies in MRI because of joint effusion, or artifact, or other anomalies that can crop up during an MRI.

It's true it can be pure subterfuge though. I'm just say it's potentially logical that this is a correct explanation and not Shanahan trying to evade like everyone is saying.

I think he'll be alright. He's still only 22.

"@ChrisBurke_SI: Fired-up reporters one or two questions away from asking Shanahan if he ordered the Code Red."

[Boss_Hogg]

Not knowing the extent of that injury is bad.

[Titaw]

Here's the deal.

When you have an injury to one of the ligaments in your knee the others are overly stressed and when you have a previously repaired ligament in there it is no wonder the ACL gave out. He's done for 2013, it's time to start talking about Cousins.
