Bob Sanders had arthroscopic surgery on his knee (1 Viewer)

[Jene Bramel]

From the Indy Star today...

Team president Bill Polian said Monday that Sanders, the team's Pro Bowl safety, recently underwent arthroscopic knee surgery that forced him to miss the past two games and will keep him out of Sunday's game in the RCA Dome with Tennessee.

"Bob is on schedule,'' Polian said. "We're anticipating (his return to the lineup) probably after the bye week.''

Well, that answers one question for me - Sanders out until week 7 at least.Now I need to track down the status on Terrance Kiel and Shaun Williams.

Now I need to track down the status on Terrance Kiel and Shaun Williams.

Looking up for Shaun Williams. He practiced today and is listed as questionable on the Wednesday injury report. We'll see how he progresses but if he's healthy he should play. Colin Branch didn't exactly conjure memories of Ronnie Lott in Williams' absence.Charlotte Observer

Also, center Justin Hartwig (groin) and safety Shaun Williams (foot) returned to practice. Linebacker Dan Morgan (concussion) is again listed as out for Sunday’s game with Cleveland at Bank of America Stadium.

Nothing new on Terrence Kiel yet. Schottenheimer did not comment on him during his most recent press conference and I've not seen an update on today's Chargers practice to know if he took first team snaps or not.

I picked up Bethea in the hopes I might have found a young cheap star (Dynasty league) Am I better off with him for this season, or should I grab Darrent Williams or Terrence McGee? I guess the main question is will Bethea lose his job when both Doss and Sanders are healthy?

tsk tsk... use the pinned thread for help questions. This thread is about Bob Sanders' knee surgery, something that was done a little surreptitiously if you ask me.

Is it worth keeping Sanders anymore in a dynasty league? It seems like he's a risk to start due to health issues or can't play at all more often than being avaiable to play without question.

Does it really matter if the pinned thread wasn't used. I mean, it's not like this board is flooded with posts. Besides, when someone posts in the pinned thread, they have to scroll through all the other questions/answers to find responses to their posts. A little cumbersome, don't you think.Keep Bethea.

In our opinion, Otter, it does matter. This forum is busy enough with news and player discussion that it becomes more cumbersome for those looking for information on a player to sift through the large amount of advice requests threads at the top of the front page. Before the pinned thread, multiple news threads were started on the same player and threads that began as news updates turned into advice requests (like this one) and changed the purpose of the thread. The questions have been answered in the pinned thread in a very timely manner and the "scrolling" issue is minor. In reality, all advice requests should be moved to the AC Forum, but we'd like to keep them in-house and started a separate IDP AC Forum as a compromise.

You may feel differently if the Ruud thread you are interested in had become a long advice thread about whether Ruud should be picked up, traded for, and other tangential issues you had to scroll through to find the single post you're looking for about his Week 5 playing status. Many others did and were the impetus to change the organization of the forum.

sorry, my bad.

cheers

10-4. Don't get your panties in a bunch. I wasn't complaining. I was just curious. That's all.

Dungy unsure whether Sanders will return this week...

Even Sanders sounded Monday as if he wasn't sure if he could play this week."I feel good, I got a chance to run today, and I feel pretty good," he said after the Colts returned from their bye week. "I'm not sure when I'll be back on the field. .. It kind of feels unstable, but it felt good to run today and I ran better than I thought I would."Getting Sanders, and his hard hits, back on the field would be a boost to a run defense that has ranked near the bottom of the league.Sanders said he intends to run Wednesday and the team may decide then whether he can play.Dungy is hopeful he will be back."We're optimistic about Bob, but we're not so optimistic about Brandon (Stokley)," Dungy said.Stokley sprained his left knee against Tennessee. Stokley, Sanders and two other Pro Bowl players - defensive end Dwight Freeney and center Jeff Saturday - did not practice Monday.And running back Dominic Rhodes and assistant coach Leslie Frazier missed practice because they're return flight from Houston was delayed by inclement weather.Dungy said no disciplinary action was warranted."Not when it's something weather-related, an act of God," he said. "We actually had three or four guys down there in the Houston area and it's a scramble

Thanks for the update.

Bob Sanders is OUT for this weeks game. Would Doss be a good play? I am starting him because he has done very well the last 3 weeks.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -Indianapolis Colts Pro Bowl safety Bob Sanders and wide receiver Brandon Stokley will not play Sunday against the Washington Redskins.

Sanders has missed the last three games after having arthroscopic surgery on his right knee. Stokley continues to rehab a sprained left knee that he injured in the Colts' Oct. 8 game against Tennessee.
