You WANT them to do an MRI..that means the Xray was negative...obvi the Xray showed a fracture which is why there's no need for an MRI.

Not good at all; who knows if for sure we're even getting Braylon back after the bye-week (and even then, Braylon might be rusty as hell). -If Williams/Ginn don't step it up, we just might be looking into the T.O. mercenary service.

He blew this team up once before. That's enough. We don't need him.

Agree but mainly because Braylon got hurt and Crabs didn't play during the preason.

Do we try to sign Randy Moss or TO now?

moss will not come out of retirement to come back to the bay area, TO is way more likely plus hes familiar with the wco and he's earles going across the middle for those slants

TO=Cancer

Not sold at all on Williams. Hopefully we can figure something out bc there's nothing I trust behind Crabtree.

As someone who has injured both of their ankles pretty much every way possible to injure them...

An ankle break is better then an ankle sprain. A sprain means the ligaments are still attached to the bone, but stretched/torn, which is a very painful and debilitating injury. Usually with this time of ankle break, the ligament breaks bone clean off with it. It sounds painful, but it heals a lot cleaner and doesn't actually lead to the same re-injury pre-disposition that you will get with sprains.

OR the team doctors looked at him, recognized a less serious injury, a minor sprain perhaps, gave him some crutches and sent him home with some aspirin.

If that's the case, I wouldn't expect to see him until the last game of the season at least.

Shouldnt have to go on IR with a break, and could be back in 8 weeks. Maybe sooner, it will be fine come the end of season.
