If it is the sprain he'll be fine. If it is the tear, he's cooked for awhile.

Don't forget about Bruce Perry. He'll get his shot now.

well, they increased his workload & he proved he can't handle it...but at least they re-signed him.

i wish i were joking.
they increased westbrook's workload when mcnabb went down...and he got injured again.
he can't handle being a feature back...too injury prone.

does anybody have the number of touches for Westbrook at this point last year compared to this year?

[PhillyPhreak54]

The injury he had was from the CB coming down on his foot while it was pointed to the ground. It wasn't an "over-worked" injury like he had too many carries and his body broke down on him.

It's a freak injury. Being bigger doesn't mean you have stronger feet.

In a totally other vein, could Andrew Toney have had a Lis Franc sprain? It could answer a question that has been plaguing me for years.

no silly, the Lis Franc is a ticking time bomb, it get's sprained after a certain number of touches.  Chad's number came up in the NFCCG and Duce's came up during the middle the season.

[Diomedes]

You're right.  Anyone would have been injured by that.

Sorry. My bad.

And don't forget Dawkins's number coming up in game 1 of 2003 too.

bullshtein.
an injury is an injury...and westbrook has a history of them.

his touches went up over the past few games...because they have no passing game...and he goes down with a season ending injury.  i'm not making stuff up here folks.  it happened.

[ice grillin you]

lol @ the eagles overworking westbrook...he doesnt get enough looks

you can say hes injury prone but its has nothing to do with workload...dook had a few seasons at villanova where he had a million touches and didnt get hurt

[PhillyPhreak54]

Chronic hamstring strains or any other injuries that are a direct result of overexertion and I would agree with you.

A freak injury where your foot is come down on while in a prone position does not say that he was overworked. It says he has shtein ass luck at that time.
