89 has a high ankle sprain, no break, will miss time

[Wither]

I knew it. Now he will have yet another lackluster season and the Panthers will suffer.

F$CK!!!! Kenny Moore might get a call any minute now....

[Makish]

can we get any lower (at least we don't have weinke lol)

[Cat'sGrowl]

I don't know what's worse.

Being 0-4. Or having a beat writer that does nothing but bash the team and everyone on it.

[Proudiddy]

Yeah, that was my guess when it happened and I said it in the other thread. I had a regular 3rd degree sprain playing ball a couple years back and couldn't even put weight on it for a month... We have professional medical staff with him through the whole process, but my sprain was on the verge of a "high ankle" and they said those usually take 2 more weeks to heal from than a regular sprain...

I believe DWill had a high ankle sprain his rookie year if I'm not mistaken and missed a while...

Anquan Boldin.

Houshmanzadeh.

Brandon Marshall.

Kevin Walter.

Anyway, Vincent Jackson, FTW.

I thought I saw DJ slicing his shoe strings but seriously hey we should have been prepared for situations like this its football atleast have some players intact.. we got to work with what we have, oh poo that's FOXISM right there.

Armanti Edwards express!!! All aboard!

[rayzor]

he's going to suck the rest of the season. i give him 8 weeks before he'll be anywhere close to normal....not that he was going to be anywhere close to normal this year. the team flat out screwed up. they didn't get him the help he needed. they didn't get a fallback option. the whole seaosn depended on smith being able to be healthy all year and get open. neither one of those things are happening no are they going to happen.

There wiil be 10 in thee box.

yep. anyone expecting much from the run game beyond this week is going to be hugely disappointed. this really sucks.

F$CK!!!! Kenny Moore might get a call any minute now....

that wouldn't help. i will probably happen, but it shouldn't. it's time that this team started looking beyond scrubs and rookies for help in the passing game. stupid that they didn't go out and get someone to help and they are going to pay for it. only thing is they aren't going to admit they made a mistake and won't go after a legit receiver because that might indicate that they were wrong in the first place.

they should have traded for boldin. they should have tried for housh. they should have done something other than draft 3 WRs hoping that one of them is able to do something at some point.

pretty crappy hole that hurney got us into. he doesn't need to be around next year if he can't get the team out of it. its up to him to find someone to step in for smith.

i know that he is going to say that he has faith in the three WRs he has but so far it has been completely unwarranted faith.

[GameBreaker34]

Gantt expects Armanti to be active next week now.

Figured that might happen...

[rayzor]

Gantt expects Armanti to be active next week now.

yeah, thats going to suck. if they think for a moment that wil make anything better they are worse than delusional.

[Lakelover]

We shoulda traded Smith earlier.....guys get hurt late in their careers....can't help us if he's not on the field.

Just saying....

[Zod]

Can't remember a time in the NFL where the three WR's that get playing time are all rookies with a rookie QB throwing to them....

[CatMan72]

Ah, the dreaded high ankle sprain.

Maybe this will spur the Panthers to bring in a vet at WR that can continue to help us even after Smith returns?
