Confirmed: Portis Has Second Degree MCL Sprain..

[Pick6TerenceNewman]

it doesn't matter if they trot out Willie Blade at running back

unless our run defense wakes the **** up, Willie Blade, or whoever, will still put up 200 yards on us.

All about execution.

For second degree sprains, the rehabilitation period will be between 6 and 8 weeks. Rehabilitation under the supervision of a chartered physiotherapist is desirable to prevent a recurrence of the injury, which can be common if a return to sport is attempted too early.

Usually i like to see us play a team at its strongest, but not this season.

Considering we haven't been at our strongest since the beginning of the season and especially since overtime against Arizona, I have no problem playing another team minus a star or two.

I have a big problem losing to another team in that situation, but not playing them.

Word to the wise, Dallas should and will prepare as if Portis will play...

Bravo

For some reason I still don't believe he's actually hurt and he's going to play. With the way Bill, in New England, likes to manipulate injury reports and such (And I know this isn't the same type of situation) I don't ever really trust injury reports until the game starts and you see it confirmed that someone is sitting.

i here ya...but i want dallas to go take to someone at full strength

I could care less that they are not 100%. In the record book it simply says who won and who lost. No one gave us much sympathy with all our injuries.

Awesome post!

Ill not believe he is out until gameday when I dont see #26 on the field.

Who cares about the pride of playing a team at full strength?? I guarantee you that New York and St. Louis didn't seem to mind.

S Alexander is just as prone to put the ball on the ground. Our defense has to gang tackle and punish their RB's and receivers. It is time to play smash mouth old school football.. We should be able to torch their banged up seconday as long as our O-line protects like they are supposed to...... Go Cowboys........

Betts will be the starter if Portis doesn't play.

Betts will be the starter if Portis doesn't play.

Betts isn't a sure thing to play, however. I expect he'll be out too.

Run defense is not the problem with this team. It's the pass defense and please don't mention that Giants game. They have been running on everybody not just us.

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

guess it is safe to say he is not playing

One never knows!

 

[BLEU3ASY]

I call shenanigans on this one, he'll play

yeah he's gonna play. he got hurt in the first series last week and he finished the game....this is Dallas week..

I agree
