Good to hear. This season is done, IMO. May as well get everyone healed up and ready for next year.

Crap, if he is done, so is any hope of the playoffs, however remote that was. Almost think we ought to tank on purpose to get the better draft pick. Sounds crappy, but we need an immediate impact player on the D now.

Gus - even though I prefer to build through the draft over free agency I thought what you were thinking too about throwing games but I think a team should never throw games because switching the mentality of the the team is hard and if you get used to losing players lose continue to lose confidence and it steamrolls - even into next season in my opinion. If this means we get a draft pick 10 spots lower than so be it - and actually this sometimes can be a benefit because if a draft pick is a bust at least the cap hit will be less severe in the long run if you pick farther down.

Uh I don't think playoffs hope is all gone.. We still have Collins - I KNOW he's not that great but he is genius and does not make lot of mistakes (*knocks on wood*) we still have chance with Collins.. Unlikely with MB.....

Wow!! You not only threw in the tow but the whole lining closet.

All depends on the degree of the tendon damage.

I could only shake my head an laugh at that point, to keep from smashing something. Guess the native Americans have finally called in their curse for the whole "Redskins" thing. Or it's one of those trials of Job things. Or it's cause I've been a bad person--my fault, most likely. Sorry folks.

Well, remember how the story of Job turned out? If that's the case, then we're going to the Superbowl.

[GoSkins!]

I also remember the story of Trent Green playing in an Al Saunders offense who went down only to have a no name backup come in and take a team to a Superbowl.

Bottom line, if Collins is about 4 points per game better than Campbell at this point, we have a chance.

PFT is saying that Adam Schefter of the NFL Network is reporting that Campbell will miss a month: ProFootballTalk.com -- The Best Pro Football Scoop on the Internet

So it looks like he's pretty much done for 2007.

I didn't think he would be out six months like most were saying. Truth is, if we make a deep run into the playoffs, Campbell could be ready to play.

Only problem with "deep into the playoffs" is we're talking about Super Bowl deep. And If we've gotten that far with Todd Collins, JC might as well ride the pine.

so he should get back all his mobility back right?

I think if it came down to it he wouldn't be 100% for the rest of the year, but he could play if got to that point.

If no ligament tears, he'll be fine in a couple of weeks and can start in the playoffs.

I've done it to both knees. Once in the weightroom (a bar fell on my knee) and once in basketball practice. My left knee is still perfect, the right one I've hurt a few times, so I have a knee like Gilbert Arenas with the fluid that needs drained from time to time.

Gibert Arenas? So you're saying you can throw up 60 pts on a given night?
