I don't think this is a sprain and that he'd have any chance to come back this season. He tore his MCL, PCL and ACL. Similar injuries to Carson and Culpepper.

They are calling them sprains, not a complete tears, and it's his MCL, PCL and LCL - not his ACL.

Of all the big name injuries, Kearse's was the one the team could most afford. The defensive line is DEEP and has been getting a ton of pressure with and without Kearse in the lineup (the backed 2nd line has been playing almost as many snaps). That said, the Birds are still a better team with Kearse than without him obviously.
The injury we Birds fans should be more concerned about is Lito's. If he really is sidelined 8+ weeks, and Rod Hood can't play, Jim Johnson simply won't be able to be as creative or aggressive in his blitz packages because Huselius and Dexter aren't good enough to be put out on islands.

I've had two buddies email me that exact sentiment already today. Believe me that viewpoint is pervasive.
Which brings the question, would the Eagles do better under a different coach? Are the Championship Games and Superbowl berths due to a talented Eagles team or a well coached Eagles team? But again, this is one (albeit: shocking) loss and I think the rest of this season will dictate if Andy's job is in jeopardy. I for one would be sad to see the fat man go.I've had two buddies email me that exact sentiment already today. Believe me that viewpoint is pervasive.

I would also be sad to see Andy go, but at some point the glaring mental errors have to rest on the coach. Why did the team look and act like the game was over at the end of the 3rd quarter? How can your team leader get a false start penalty just messing with the defense? How come, and this kills me, the Eagles Def always starts out cold? They seem to always give up easy TD drives the first possesion of the game. How come our clock management is so bad? And why didn't we try to pin the Giants deep in their own territory instead of going on 4th and 1 with a 10 point lead? Asmuch as Kearse's injury was chance we should have been off the field with a W before it could have happened.

And for once, I think they are wrong. Reid actually tried to run the ball to kill the clock and it backfired on himCBuck failed to convert a 4th and 1 with about 9 minutes left when they were up 10Westbrook fumbles with 4 and a half left when they are still up 10And of course there's nothing he could have done about Cole getting that PF.I've had two buddies email me that exact sentiment already today. Believe me that viewpoint is pervasive.

I think he was till that last hit.His foot was planted and he got hit from the side. My 10 year old said "I didnt know knees could bend that way Dad"

What, you don't like to see 3rd stringers who fight for their job every week and bust their ### on special teams go out with a broken kneecap?
