RGIII with at least partial tears to ACL and LCL. Damn shame.
If it's only partial he won't miss a beat. Let's hope it isn't a Culpepper situation.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Robert Griffin III had surgery to repair two ligaments in his troublesome right knee Wednesday morning, said a person familiar with the situation.
The Washington Redskins quarterback had his knee repaired by orthopedist James Andrews in Florida. The doctor had already diagnosed a torn lateral collateral ligament in his right knee. The person said Andrews also found and repaired damage found in Griffin's ACL.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Redskins had not made an announcement about the latest details surrounding the rookie quarterback's injury.
Now comes RG3's next challenge: a race against time to get healthy before the beginning of next season.
Griffin's recovery time will take several months at least but could extend into next season, depending on the extent of the damage. The process could also be speeded up because Griffin is known as a focused, determined competitor who would be expected to take his rehab as seriously as possible.
"Thank you for your prayers and support. I love God, my family, my team, the fans, & I love this game. See you guys next season," Griffin tweeted before the surgery began.
Athletes generally need nine to 12 months to make a full recovery from a torn ACL, although Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson made a remarkable return this season about eight months after tearing an ACL — and nearly broke the NFL's single-season rushing record.
And I'll bring this:

RG3 had his surgery. No word on his expected recovery yet (probably too soon to tell).

Fair enough. But since the Pack are going to win, you get the rusty gun.
LMAO. You can Alex Jones me before the NFC Championship game.
i'll have more to say on that after Seattle destroys the Falcons.![]()
Which they fucking will. It'll look closer than it was. Atlanta will get 10 points in garbage time. Seahawks will still win 40-23.
it's funny how distracted y'all are.
wow...you're more optomistic than i am...Seattle getting 40 points?...i hope so. Seattles 'D' just might win this game. Seahawks 21 Falcons 14
