I actually think Peterson can be used as a baseline. Not so much putting up a career season after that type of injury, but returning as quickly as he did. Welker did it too. I think sports medicine is to the point where they can get guys back onto the field in a short period of time for something that would've been career ending before. I don't necessarily think RG3 will come back better than he was, but it's definitely possible he could be back to start the season. That said, I'd feel a hell of a lot better about it if they sat him the first 4-6 games.

Yeah that's what I was getting at. Injuries that would end a career 20 years ago are now just season ending injuries and not much more. Hell, Gore blew out both of his knees in back to back seasons in college, and then rushed for almost 1700 yards in his first season as a starter in the NFL.

Despite the heavy criticism about playing conditions in the playoffs, Allen said a transition from a grass surface to FieldTurf is not an option in 2013. He admitted the team missed its opportunity to re-sod last year.

I really think they're making a huge mistake. Not only is it an embarrassment and the cause of our star player going down (not that he wouldn't have anyway), but with a team that's now built for speed, going to turf seems like a no brainer.

more disturbing fact. It was known all along. I wouldn't mind seeing the stats on how many players were injured on that field now.

They could also stop having college games there (Virginia Tech has been there repeatedly over the past few years) and concerts and shit. On top of that you cannot grow grass in this area past October really anyway...dunno why they didn't build the place with an artificial surface to start with.

Leave it to Danny to be cheap as fuck on the thing that could cost him his franchise player for the next 15 years. The stadium basically sucks in general...I know Snyder didn't built it, but I could go my whole life without going back there. Time to demolish RFK and build a real stadium for the Redskins.

Fedex field is a joke of a stadium, not even walking/stumbling distance to a metro station. and not one redeeming quality to overcome the awful location, poor food and drink options, and generally shitty fan experience (other than tailgating).
id prefer go to one away game a season than a full season worth of home games at fedex.
fuck snyder. for reals.

I was going to post that earlier. Whatever I read had said he was thinking about quitting football too, though. It's a real shame, cause he's a physically gifted receiver. Just apparently a dumbass.

The cheap fuck could have at least resodded the field for their first home playoff game in how long? They had like a good two weeks knowing there was a strong possibility they would be hosting the wild card round.

How in the hell do you get shitcanned by a team in February? I understand players being released due to the cap and for contract issues, but how many team activities are actually occurring atm? Right now has to be the most "off" part of the offseason, did he piss them off during his physical or something?

Seems like the biggest shithead to hit the NFL since the earlier Pacman Jones years.

Why are wideouts a bunch of fairy ass pussies? There are like 4 bad dude receivers in the league, the rest are either divas or about themselves. (then you have the stand-up guys like Fitzgerald, Calvin Johnson etc) Young has to be autistic or something, because his situation in Detroit wasnt even that bad. With all the double teams Megatron gets, the guy could have just shut the fuck up and played hard and would have ended up as the #2 with a ton of opportunities. Instead he is looking for a job.

Also, Roger Goodel made 30 million $ last year. LOL.

I'm no fan of Dan "Peter Angelos, Jr" Snyder, but the real villain in the stadium design, location, amenities, etc is Jack Kent Cooke.

I hope more fans and teams use AP as a baseline when judging injury recovery. The tears from people when these guys who are NOT superhuman like him come back too early and ruin their careers will power my hatemobile for years to come.

Peterson is a beast, but c'mon. Tear your Achilles and play ball in the same calendar year. Good baseline.
