I mean really, how did Carson tear his ACL on that play!?

I would like Palmer to keep the brace on for the rest of his career with us when he comes back, and he will come back damn it and continue to play at a high level

here's the deal do you pin your franchise on a 35 year old quarterback with 2 knee surgeries OR a 32-year-old Big Ben even Carson knows the reality of the situation

I'd wondered if he'd done something when he tackled ogletree after the int, which unravelled. Probably not.

I heard originally, although I can't find it now, that the repair in 2005 used graft tissue from elsewhere in Carson's body, which isn't as strong as the donor ligaments that are more commonly used today.

I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, but my wife is an athletic trainer and works in an ortho clinic. One of her old docs was a 20th overall pick in the 1st round and played 5 years in the NFL.

Actually, they used cadaver in 2005 so that he could rehab faster.
