    I think we will see a better VY when he comes back.

    I don't know how, he hasn't participated in practices, positional meetings, or been involved in gameplan strategy or scheming. It doesn't just automatically come to you. not to mention, his knee won't be 100% until April.

    Four to six weeks, if it isn't reaggravated. And I'm not repeating the injury report, I've had a similar injury myself.

    I don't care what the injury report says. I've torn up both knees, and it takes much longer for the joint and ligament to stabilize back to 100%, even if it's a grade 2/3 tear. He will have terrible lateral movement, but can run straight ahead:(

    We threw the ball 14 times in the 2nd half last week. It's not like he didn't even have a chance to complete some passes.

    Collins is not great, but he's doing better every week with fewer turnovers. No INT's last week.
    That's all we need. That's what VY hasn't been able to do. As long as Collins contiunes to manage the game and not turn the ball over he will start.

    When vince first went down all I heard about on here was now with collins we're going to be airing it out and having a great passing attack. Now all of a sudden he's gone from great passer to manager of game. I think our defense is great but I guarantee we can't win in the playoffs if our qb won't be able to make a play in the 4th quarter.

    You didn't listen to what I said. I said I wasn't going by the injury report, that I sprained my knee last fall. Just like Vince, it was a sprained MCL. The first two or three weeks, lateral movement still hurt and the knee was weak. But between the 3rd and 6th weeks the pain lessened dramtically. By six weeks in, it would just felt a little sore. That was for me, Vince will obviously be different. But saying it won't be well until April is ridiculous.

    I listened to what you said, I just worded it wrong in regards to the injury report.

    Go ask your Orthopedic surgeon how long it takes for the ligament to regain its original Tautness. The time table to heal from the initial trauma is 3-6 weeks, then is the time for the actual damage to the tissues to heal. Notice how VY had a strained Quad last year that still isn't fully healed?

    No, that's not all that was being said on here. Most people said that all we needed was someone to manage the game, and that Collins sucks but he can manage with fewer INT's than VY throw's up.
