Oakland Raiders' Jacoby Ford's Injury Not as Bad as Feared

PrintWhat's that you say? Good injury news? Yes. That is exactly what my eyes have just read. Maybe I am hallucinating. Tell me. Can you see this:
Meanwhile, Jerry McDonald added this:
Wide receiver Jacoby Ford said Friday he didn’t think his sprained ankle was serious and that it was a different kind of sprain than the one that’s kept Darren McFadden on the bench.
McDonald says "ankle sprain" and I have seen both that and foot sprain. The fact that there is any comparison at all to McFadden leads me to believe that it is a foot sprain. Otherwise what would be the point of even mentioning it.
"Um...yeah, I think my ankle sprain is different than Jason Campbell's broken collarbone."
Anyway, I will take the good news. It is preferable to the bad news. I also won't expect anything until he is back on the practice field. The good news is that he, and all other Raiders have three extra days to heal for next week's game against Minnesota. Who, by the way, has one less day as they play on Monday night.

Having more time off does not seem to help this team,
they played much better after the short week (4 days)

Thank you, Brethren. Those 6 days of reflection and pondering seemed like 18.

THERE'S THE MAN !!!
Hey man, I started wondering about you last week when you didn’t show up after the Denver loss … glad to see you back around brother.
How you liking First Place?

I'm preparing myself to share 1st place with Denver who will continue to surge against the declining Jets
Minnesota may be our toughest remaining opponent considering matchups and this is something like a bye week which abhors success for us. Jared Allen will force Carson to throw sooner than later and the Viks rush defense is formidable. Not saying we necessarily lose, just being detached and objective.
Denver will take NY’s superior DB’s out of the game with minimalistic passing. (yes, Jagger Jaw, teams can still be successful in the nfl with predominant rushing offenses).
Meanwhile, SD will lose to Chicago and KC will be crushed by NE.

Also Of Note: We Get The Vikes With 10 Days Rest After They Play Monday Night -vs- "GB"...
They may not have any emotion left for us after the annihilation that’s coming at the hands of “GB”???…Than a short week and facing us could be too tough for them to handle…
Finally...
Some good news about an injury! He was starting to build some chemistry with Carson so I’m glad he will probably play against the Vikings! I can’t wait to watch the Charger game again! I have all the Raider games recorded on my DVR just cause! Lol! I’m still lost on the whole DHB situation and him being irrelevant in our game plan!

DHB will drift into the game plan in time.
Give it a while.

DHB
I’m not lost on the DHB situation, they have the right players on the field. I’m sure in time, he will shine in the passing game. It might be due to next man up. Moore and Ford should be the starting wide-outs

Hopefully...
After some good signs of him turning the corner this year I think he at least should take more snaps then T.J. but then again I didn’t watch the game so not sure how many times he was out there! And don’t get me wrong I rather have somebody out there on the field that didn’t need two years to come out of its shell but for some reason I wanna see DHB produce just to prove he was a better pick then Crabtree! Lol! That’s just me!

Ive had the sam injury as Jacoby Ford...
3 times! 2 on the left ankle,1 on the right. I can honestly say his is not that bad. After I saw the replay I knew he sprang it. Lucky for him, his body was at an angle when it happened and it wasnt a complete roll over. With the fulltime doctors the Raiders have…he will be fine. Like my ARMY Ranger doctor told me when my injury happened in the service,“drink water and drive on young man”.

Ive also had the same injury, 2-3 times on the same ankle.In my experience,it seems much worse than it is when it first happens.As you said, with the doctors the team has, he will be fine
