News: MRI confirms torn ACL for Trevon Diggs - Post 263

Save those picks for our center. That’s the one that could truly screw us.

Hopefully, his injury isn't serious.

 

[Risen Star]

Defensive lines make cornerbacks look better than they are… that much is true. But they still matter.

You're an Eagles fan. You matter even less than cornerbacks.

 

[Risen Star]

I predict this dooms our season.

6-7 wins.

Lol how is it pathetic? Some things will always take time to recover

I’m talking from a healthcare perspective. I’m a PT and 5 years ago I read some data of a new procedure that would repair an ACL within a few weeks. 5 years later and nothing has moved forward…

 

[TheSport78]

ACL injuries have a come a long way, it's catastrophic damage to the knee.

It’s really not. An ACL tear is pretty clean assuming there’s no damage to the meniscus or other ligaments. It doesn’t damage the knee, just makes the knee joint unstable until you repair it.

Who is the last good corner that had a torn acl?

 

[J-man]

That sucks.
It sucks for him as a player, it sucks for his team mates, it sucks for us fans and frankly it sucks for history. Because suddenly all of us have lost a shot at seeing what truly may have been one of the all time greatest defenses in NFL history.
That really really sucks.

Lol

Beating them in regular season means little.

Kicking a little is more than getting kicked.. This game tonight is crap. Stop the runs and screens.

 

[Doomsay]

If the season relied on diggs it was doomed to fail anyway.

It did partially

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Look to Rusty to find the positive!
Thanks buddy!

Np

 

[SlammedZero]

Well, this a major bummer on a relatively great start to the season. Glad we have some depth, but it still hurts to lose Diggs.

 

[Plankton]

Who is the last good corner that had a torn acl?

Rod Woodson? Darrelle Revis?

 

[Plankton]

Where this really hurts is that Diggs is one of two guys on the defense who can go from defense to offense by making a play. Other than Parsons, no one else on the defense has that kind of ability. The defense can still be very effective, but there will be less playmaking capability.

6-7 wins.

I predict 13 wins.

 

[stilltheguru]

Rod Woodson? Darrelle Revis?

Revis tore it 2 games into the year as well. Came back and looked good the next year. Plus he was older than Diggs. If diggs wants to come back top notch he will

 

[Risen Star]

I predict 13 wins.

And Ronald McDonald loves the Big Mac.

5-6 wins.

 

[rambo2]

And Ronald McDonald loves the Big Mac.

You can't be serious?

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

You can't be serious?

I usually don't engage in that. I think Mike McCarthy knows what he's doing. I'm still going to say we go 12-5 in the regular season.

He already signed with the Steelers? That was fast

I meant the 49ers signed a steeler.
