As long as RGIII is 100% for 2013 training camp...

Even had we lost, but not had that calamitous incident happen, we would have sat toasting his toughness, looking at the rehab process and counting the days to next year. I am sure Shanahan would like to have the time back, but no one can do that, and for the Skins, it's just a bitter pill at the end of a Division Championship season.

They may do exploratory surgery according to Mike Jones (from WaPo).

If they are partial tears, can they be fixed without surgery? Is surgery the better option for a partial tear?

I been there before....It all depends on how bad the partial tears are.......R.I.C.E can heal it but he's gonna have to miss some camp. it's tricky....

With partial tears, it might as well be a full one as far as athletes go. Most are viewed as a complete ACL tear waiting to happen. I would suspect that most partial ACL tears in athletes are completely replaced. Ordinary people like me and you would be a different story.

That's what the report says, saying it may be healed without surgery

Guys, they don't know yet. That's the bottomline.

If have tore those 4 weeks ago and still played?? Man he'll be back week 1 if that's the case lol

It's funny they had no problem with a diagnosis after the Baltimore game.

They are to guarded with their answers. He has tore something and will have surgery tomorrow. So, the ? now is if he will be out 8, 12 or 16.

NYCSkin · 01-07-2013, 06:12 PM

Whether its partial or a fully torn ACL-he should get surgery IMO
