Rogers injured surgically repaired shoulder

Jesus, the guy couldn't even make it to the first exhibition game. Glass jaw? More like glass shoulder.

I didn't realize that Jesus played football.

This is exactly why I started a thread yesterday asking what do we do if Rogers goes down and many 'poo-pooed' me even asking the question.

Let's hope the kid is ok and good to go.

I still maintain we have MAJOR problems at RT.


Well Sarge let's say we weren't a SB team even with Rogers in there. Right now Petitti needs to step up.
 
Petitti has to get on the field more. That ankle injury scares me - thats what he had at Sr Bowl and combine......

My optimism would like to slap you for saying that, but I can't we you are most likely right....as for Petitti....I'm really hoping he can be the answer. However with the transition Rogers had moving to RT last year I would be surprised if he can step up real soon. If he takes it over by mid-season that would be great assuming Rogers physically can not cut it....

Petitti stepping up would be the best fix for this problem. Ok Kid!!! there is a crack in the door....now kick it open.

I'm with ya CBz...I like that he's a big physical guy that can man handle DT and DE's in the run game...and a solid pass blocker. I'm crossing my fingers for the kid!

I'm sorry to say..... whether Rogers can physically make it through a training camp much less a whole season is really becoming very suspect.

The RT position is starting to scare me to death.

Petti simply has to stepup and be the man.

I'd rather have a Kurt Vollers at RT then a Toni Boselli. Sure Boselli is an absolute beast, but hurt all the time (now retired), whereas Vollers is solid and durable (*knock on wood*).

While I agree with you on the point that a player can have all the talent in the world, it doesn't matter if he's always hurt... I disagree on your uneducated dig of Tony Boselli. Boselli was a 5 time pro bowler. Yes, his career was cut short by injury, but that in no way diminishes that for 5 years, he was arguably the best tackle in football.

Bingo...I'm more nervous about RT then FS and QB at this point. On paper this sounds good.......

LT Adams 340LBS
LG LA 330
C Big Al 300
RG Rivera 315
RT Petitti 330

Julius would be have a 2000 yard season...........look at that beef.

Things have been going so well during training camp :( Im sure this is going to be the first bit of very bad news. I just have this feeling, please let me be wrong ! I dont want to go to sleep until I know !

I wish Tucker had shown up in shape. At least we'd have more options.

I'm still hoping for the best with Rogers, but I truly wonder how this guy is going to survive an entire season (and hopefully post-season!) . . . .

That is alot of beef..... :D


Just heard Spags on the ticket.....no word on Rogers......we have 3 options at RT.....Petitti steps up, which Spags questions, move LA, or bring BPA in.

I guess we shall see.

I'm guessing its bad news, because if the report come back with just a minor injury then, they would have given a press release, just like Marcus Spears. I guessing he's gone for the season.

That's a lot of pressure on Petitti, esp. given that it's a new position for him.

I'd first look to see if we could bring someone in before moving LA.
