I really thought something was up with those reports

I saw KW go off the field and the trainers looking at him on the sidelines. He went back into the game for a play or two after that, so I was surprised to hear the “broken shoulder” stuff. Especially after tweets about him not being too worried about it, but MRI tomorrow just to be sure.

Don’t these internet medical experts know they need a blurry photo of one MRI image to make a proper diagnosis?

Like I said...

…you can’t “break” a shoulder. You can break the bones around there as somebody mentioned (sorry, can’t remember who), but the shoulder isn’t a bone, it’s a joint. This smelled of stupid from the beginning. I’d love to know who the original source was.

Best I can tell Jason LaCanfora or profootball talk were the first two with names big enough to give it legs

I saw lots of reports citing league source, which leads me to believe it might have been LaCanfora. Not saying they started it, but from what I see they are the ones that breathed a little credibility into it.

I don't know that it was him

He actually cited a “league source” as well when I looked at it. Whoever started it, it seems to have really taken off from PFT and/or him.

I might've mentioned it

But yeah, you can’t break a joint, and therefore no “injury expert” would’ve said he broke his shoulder.

Amazing how...

multiple respected journalists were all parroting the “fact” that he had a broken collarbone, when only a very few were smart enough to notice that he wasn’t in a sling after the game, and was very limited in pain. I remember seeing only 1 or 2 people tweeting last night that they thought it would be minor, even after the “professional” reports came out. Mob mentality at it’s finest

by taylorrohrman on Sep 12, 2011 4:16 PM CDT reply actions  

What's funny is that there were two different stories on his injury.

Some were saying broken collarbone others were saying “broken” shoulder. Although I turned off my panic button when Walter was quoted as not thinking it was serious yesterday.

Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.

Anyway... so basically we got out of yesterday in pretty good shape physically...

No season/career injuries and a convincing win over Indy…

So
The Texans are scheduled to visit with free agent David Anderson this week.

Assuming Walter misses a couple weeks and we bring back DA, who gets cut from our current roster?

Some possibilities to me are: Barber, Carmichael, Braman, Austin, Newton, Slaton

I would prefer they move Carmichael to the practice squad if I got to chose.
