This week there was a thread that asked, Luck or RGIII...which would you choose.

I said Luck because of the risk of injury with RGIII. He's a smaller guy who gets exposed to big hits. Now a pocket qb can get hurt too. Romo almost got torn into two pieces in a play today.

But when you are out in the open field and get rolled by a 320 pounder....and your legs are as thin as a deer. I just would be concerned about his career future.

Now I'd say the same thing for the equally exciting Johnny Manziel. At some point somebody almost as fast...and way more massive is going to collide or fall upon little Johnny.

I think the video looks worse than it is. Luckily, he was in the air and his foot wasn't planted. Hopefully, it is just a sprain, I don't want to see anyone get a season-ending injury, even if it is a deadskin
Everyone has a plan, until they get hit.

I am hoping the ligament is OK and he just hyperextended in a straight motion. Will be painful, but not damaging. HArd to know.

I have no clue, just hoping it's ok.

For whatever it may be worth, RG3 has had an ACL before and said he knows what that feels like and doesn't believe it is that.
I agree. Ligaments usually have a tell tale "pop" when they tear, and Griffin didn't say anything about that. I'm guessing its a bad strain. Still might mean he's done for the regular season. Hard to say.

I don't think we're thinking of the same injury then, because that doesn't look a fraction as bad as Thiesman's Tib/Fib.

I'm catching up on WAS feed- it looks like team docs say it's not ACL for RGIII. I'll use this to remind how much I wanted Cousins in draft

According to the presser, had an x-ray which came back negative and the doctors that examined him said the ligaments felt good.

Just need an MRI to confirm.

He will miss a game at least.

Let him take a clean shot there next week, it will be a wrap.

What about an MCL?

Note to RG3: There are many other ligaments in your knee than just the ACL. The way his knee was contacted and displaced afterwards looked like it could possibly affect his lateral cruciate ligament

Yes, you need the MRI to make any sort of conformation. The X-ray is not the radiograph of choice to determine any type of cartilage injury.
