    So 4-6 weeks and IR if recovery isn't going well. Let's look at the schedule.

    KC
    at SEA
    SF
    BYE (4 weeks)
    at STL
    JAX (6 weeks)
    IND (Thursday night game)
    at OAK (8 week point for coming off IR)
    at IND


    Getting him back in time for STL would be great but maybe another week for a home game vs JAX would be the best time.

    Let him come back for the Thursday night game against Indy. We should be able to beat Jacksonville without a QB.

    Man, I was really excited for that TNF game... Locker on a roll finally getting national coverage. But then this stupid injury ruined it! Gah.

    I honestly think the Titans have to prepare as if Fitzpatrick or someone else is leading the team the rest of the season.

    If we are banking on 4-6-8 bad weeks then things will be better when Locker is back... that's too late and the season is gone.

    hopefully we sneak into the playoffs and locker will have a few extra games to show us what he can do...I was totally confident in us winning the division with locker...but am optimistic for a wildcard spot with fitz.

    I agree with you about Locker being injury prone.. but you CANNOT question the dude's toughness. Some players just have bad luck with their bodies, but Jake is one tough SoB. He'll find a way back onto the field, just like McNair.

    So I guess you think McNair was a wimp too just because his body didn't hold up very well at times? Get outta here with that crap.

    Assuming he misses 6 weeks (5 games) we need to go 3-2 for me to still feel pretty confident in this season. That's assuming wins against KC, STL, and JAX. Then get him back in time for the Thursday night game against Indy.

    Honestly that's probably the best bet. If they're even considering IR/return then that tells me 4 weeks is probably an overly-optimistic timetable.

    Jags and Rams are a mess. We should be able to beat them without Locker anyway.

    The part about him being stiff as a board, not moving anything other than his head scared me the most. It reminded me of Eric LaGrand's injury in college. I'm so glad it wasn't nerve damage..
