My grandson says to kill a snake you have to cut it's head off. He is a member of the Pentecostal church.

So fire CSP and injuries don't happen.

Your grandson is stupid like you as there are a almost infinite number of ways to kill a snake.

At this point, I'm hoping for a complete tank and draft a QB with the 1st 2nd or 3rd. Any good ones coming up this year?

Unfortunately, 6 weeks is not realistic in my mind especially if they have to do surgery. 10 weeks is more probable to me.

Are you a doctor or talking out of your arse?



If the 6-8 weeks timeline is correct, we can expect him back around week 4?

6 weeks should put him making his NFL debut vs Falcons on MNF

I'm a physical therapist. Here's the deal. If he has surgery, your looking at 2-3 weeks for the incision to heal fully and allow him in the pool. During that time, he can get PT and ride a bike basically for cardio. The Fibula is a non weight bearing bone, but that doesn't mean it isn't important and it doesn't mean that he won't have other soft tissue/joint restrictions to deal with initially. If they push him to fully bear weight quickly post operatively, they risk complications. They won't do that IMO. Then somehow he is supposed to be in game shape soon after being cleared to bear weight then run?That's my thought process. Look at Jalen Mills for LSU last year. Was he back at 100% at the 6 week mark, no way.

Yeah I have a feeling they're going to wait until at least after the bye week to bring him back.

You have to realize how silly this statement sounds coming from a message board poster.

@LarryHolder: RT @MikeGarafolo: Decision on surgery for Rankins made late yesterday after consulting w/ Anderson. Hope about 6 wks recovery. Timeframe firmer after surgery.

Yep we're going back to the Saints of old. Should have gotten 2 stud defensive linemen and a stud Olineman

Well we got Fairley and Rankins, so thankfully we had some depth at his position
