How is RGIII?

[brandymac27]

Check this thread (i believe) on Monday.

I was in here Monday, and I don't recall any insider saying it was definitely the PCL. That was just speculation from somebody.

How about torn PCL? Remember that one?

Torn PCL is quite possibly a misunderstanding, and not necessarily someone being flat-out wrong (or worse, making **** up).

PLC stands for posterolateral corner injury, and can refer to a number of different combination ligament injuries, including an injury to the LCL and ACL. Now there is no way for me to know for sure, but it's entirely within the realm of possibility that Robert has a posterolateral corner (PLC) injury.

Therefore, it's very possible that someone read "PLC," and not knowing that medical term, sent out "PCL."

Is he throwing yet?

Where did the original graft come from the 2009 injury?

[demarc007]

I get the impression that the '09 surgery was patchwork. But what do I know?

I've read his surgery then was actually very good, that is the reason why he came back so fast then

Well, if the information is inaccurate, then its wrong. There's two possibilities (1) someone is making something up, and passes it along, or (2) its lost in translation. Still wrong.

Who said definately? "I'm hearing PCL" or "I'm hearing MCL" isn't definate, but its still not accurate.

right!

Yep, ... I didn't realize that his rehab will probably be under Andrews, is that correct? I would have thought he would rehab with someone else.

Peterson had his surgery under Andrews, but rehabbed with Russ Paine, a physical therapist in Houston.

So Im hearing some of these tears in Rob's ACL were around the screws from the previous surgery.

HAHA!!! He supposedly came back faster after the first ACL surgery. Peterson worked so hard during rehab that he was in awesome shape and could be one of those things where RG3 may come back quicker!!

[doghouse4x4]

He will be sleeping next to RG3 for the next few months!..lol

Bwahaha. My brother and I were joking about that last night. Probably tucked him in. Kissed him on the knee .

Nobody in situations like this can be 100% accurate until a doctor actually goes in and sees the damage. They're right way more than they're wrong.

There's screws in there? I didn't realize that... damn, I hope they change them out with some titanium or something even lighter and stronger and more flexible.... oh, and rust proof

Yes, there are screws from the prior surgery. That's one of the reasons the MRI results Sunday night were inconclusive. Apparently, metal can distort the images.

Peterson didn't have Dan Synder's Pocket book.
