They're now saying the MRI may just be showing scar tissue from his tear from when he was at Baylor. Still could be bad tho.

If it is bad i hope the NFLPA holds the coaching/medical staff accountable. That is what the NFLPA should be doing for these guys not just making us feel all warm and fuzzy about head injuries.

I hate it for RG3. Two of my all-time favorite players in Lattimore and RG3 have both gone down with another knee injury this season. I do believe that Cousins is more than capable to take my Skins to the playoffs next season if RG3 can't play but something has to be done about the defense. Won a lot of close games this year that prolly wouldn't have happened without Robert but an improved defense can cut back on a few of those games.

Cousins can, but your coach can't. Sorry, I am just a Shanahan hater after I saw how he treated some of his players in Denver.

Kinda mean, eh? Maybe just old school....there's some coaches from the past that probably would be just like him.

Sorry to hear about RGIII...sincerly hope he has a super speedy recovery. Great young man.

Idk why rg3 was even playing against the seahawks, I don't care if rg3 wants to go in as a coach you have to protect a player against themselves sometimes.

crowcutta · 01-08-2013, 09:47 AM

the fact they were doing designed runs with him is mind boggling. an ankle is one thing, but on a hurt knee where he clearly doesnt look right? i understand once you start him and its 14-0 its hard to take him out, but once they took the 14-0 lead, he had like 16 yards passing from that point on.

guy is a warrior, but i hope this decision doesnt bite him/them in the future, let alone next season.

No, not really. I just don't like how he treats his players. I am sure there is a NFL coach you dislike too, or maybe a college coach.

As for RG3, he is quickly becoming one of my favorite players, as I get to know him more. Fantastic attitude, and he has a great personality to be a role model to the youth.

Full tear of ACL and LCL. DR. Andrews performing surgery tomorrow. Awful news. Maybe he'll rehab in FL with Marcus.

I think its crazy that he walked off the field with those injuries.

The brace made it easier for him to walk off. Also with knee injuries you can usually walk off, but just may lock up and hurt a lot.

I think the knee was completely tore up before coming back. They kept saying he couldn't injure it more, which makes me think it already needed surgery. You can play on tore ACL and other knee ligaments, but it will just hurt, if it locks up or you try and plant off it. The brace prevented those issues, allowing him to play.

Mr. Burns · 01-09-2013, 10:44 AM

I would assume that he won't be able to play next season?

Garnet 4 Life 81 · 01-09-2013, 10:52 AM

they said 6-8 months. redskins are stupid to risk it. they gambled one game for next season. fail.
