Well Rinehart is done for the year.
How long do MCL tears usually keep people out for? I thought maybe its usually several weeks.. I know ACL are season, sometimes career ending injuries..

Frustrating news to be sure. Betts was injured last year about the time Portis was on the sideline...when we needed him most obviously. I guess he can't be relied on to carry a full workload.
...probably time for the FO to find new talent at the RB position aye.

I called the MCL tear.
Seriously, as long as I've been watching games I can diagnose the significant injuries with an accuracy of %75-80.
Right when he suffered the stiff blow on the side of his knee and then got carted off I had it in the bag. I'm the Doctor of Visual Diagnosis.

Well our problems won't be solved in one offseason.
If problems exist with depth especially on OL then you're talking about 4-5 quality players additions just to shore up one dimension.
What we need is a change in approach from our Front Office over an extended period of time. That's why it's so important we have a personnel person capable of managing that effort and making certain it strategically goes in one direction in a duration of years as opposed to one season.
