Who knows but my guess is that if it is good news it will be released quickly if its bad news we won't know for awhile. If we don't know something by the end of the day,...... its bad.

Honestly, we probably won't know anything for sure until they do exploratory surgery.

You've got to be out of your mind to think HTTR24-7 is an attention whore. There will be no slandering of him in this forum

Why, who is he?

If you know who he is, then say so. You haven't been active here long enough to get away with this sort of ambiguity.

I'm sure they know whether it's a torn ACL or partially torn at this point? They don't have to wait for surgery to determine initial damage

Actually listening to the Opening Drive this morning Amani Toomer was discussing that. He had an inconclusive MRI done on his knee, and the only way to figure out if there was damage done to the ACL, MCL, and PCL was to have exploratory surgery. Once they got in there they found his ACL to be torn. At which time he had to have reconstructive surgery done on the knee.

The fact that it is the same knee from 2009 is what is making it difficult to determine the extent of the damage. I would be surprised if we got the results of the surgery today.

Not necessarily.

Even an MRI doesn't always show the whole story.

Probably have to scope it to know the full extent.

Believe me I see it all the time in my line of work. MRIs are totally abused in how readily they are prescribed these days.

Good article. Thanks for posting.

Bad news. Two ACLs, and a LCL early in his career.

When he comes back we just need to scrap the option offense. There are reasons it is not used in the pro's. RG3 is just a good, accurate QB that can win games with traditional offenses. Why throw your elite QB to the wolves? Peyton, Brady, Rodgers don't usually miss games -- and our QB was concussed and tore ligaments. More of this and he's moving towards Vick's career path and out of the league in a couple of years..

We NEED to upgrade O-line for pass blocking, and eventually will need another elite WR to help create a passing game without option schemes.

The option offense isn't why RGIII is in the situation he's in. His inability to slide or run out of bounds is. There is nothing wrong with him running or scrambling, but he has to be smarter. That extra yard isn't worth it when looking at the big picture. If it's super bowl and he's at the goal line, I'll change my stance. Until that happens, the kid needs to wise up or he's not going to last long in this league.


Also, if you hadn't notice, the option offense has been ran less and less over the 2nd half of the season.
