Carlos Rogers Done For The Year

He was really coming into his own too...this is quite a shame.

I saw where it said he tore his ACL and MCL...how will he make it back by training camp if that is true? Anyone have better info?

I am not trying to be grim, but I tore my MCL 4 years ago, and I have not been the same since. The injury has technically healed, but my leg feels like a streched rubberband and my knee doesn't hold in place properly. Every once in a while my knee gives out and I nearly fall on my face. I cannot run long distance like I used to and planting on it while sprinting is slightly painfull. I am not nearly as fast as I was.

I do not see how professional athletes come back from injuries like these honestly. In my experience, you are never 100% again.

Good luck Carlos, I hope you can make it back.

They have access to the best surgeons (Dr. Andrews), rehabilitation, physical therapists, and trainers money can buy. Plus a guy as athletic as Carlos Rogers, a top 10 draft pick, is already blessed with the best physical attributes out there. Guys come back from this stuff all the time. That said, I'm sure we'll continue to try and bolster the CB position moving forward...

I wish Carlos Rogers a fast and speedy recovery.
Injury looked very painful.
I wish him the best.

Unlike a few others I think his absence won't be felt as much as others might think. Rogers couldn't catch a cold. Balls consistantly bounce off of his hands. He also gets burned on the reg. I say call up Jimoh or Garnell Wilds or Darrell Green. Rogers needs to be alot better to live up to the rest of his #1 pick comrads.

I am begining to wonder whether or not some of you are watching the same Carlos Rogers I am on the Field. He is a terrible Deep Cover Corner and an Average at Best Nickle corner. Opposing teams have targeted him since we drafted him. Must we forget the attempted shoulder tackle on a TE that was flying down the Middle of the Field against Green Bay? Or the NUmerous misreads and flatout burns this season? (Philly, Arizona, Giants). I have lost patience with Carlos. I look at this Injury in the same light as if we traded him for an untested Rookie. carlos has had his day and the sun many a game and has dried up like a raisin. Its time for Lee Torrence to show us what he can do.

Okay, I can stomach people saying they'd like to see Betts start, but you are not actually anxious to see Leigh Torrence start? I realize the grass is always greener, especially with impatient Redskins fans, but come on.

It will hurt us in a number of ways. One is that we'll have to shift help to wherever the replacement is--that takes away some of Taylor's freedom. Two, our D has been taking away the long ball by relying on CBs to tackle the short stuff. Carlos missed some plays, to be sure, but he made some as well, and he is more physical than these other guys. It will affect the overall, D I'm afraid, which is a real bummer.

I feel bad for Carlos Rogers. But every time I saw him screw up a play, I'd think . . . dang, we could have had Merriman!

If only Gibbs would spend time on the warpath and start reading my threads Merriman would be a Skin. Unfortunately it looks like Rogers is going to go down as a top 10 bust at this point, he wasnt that good up until now I doubt he will be much once he gets done with what sounds like a very ugly knee surgery.

Yup. Well said offiss. Unfortunate, but true.

Almost nobody spells "ridiculous" correctly. It's one of The Warpath's greatest mysteries -- second only to Question 3.

Well alot of people do not use the words then and than correctly.

Yeah he is some shit and dont forget Laron landry can play corner.Carlos Rogers sucked anyway another Leon Hall with the Bengals high drafted and cant cover a damn turd.

this is really bad
