AP's knee was an injury on a healthy knee. RGIII's injury is on a re-injured knee that was already fixed once during his college career. They're saying 6-8 months, but even that's optimistic. They shouldn't have said anything since he JUST HAD SURGERY TODAY.

Yeah, I can tell you as a Seattle fan I've been pretty appalled at a few things having to do with that game and the way the Redskins organization is conducting itself publicly. First, that the coach played RGIII when he was clearly injured and in pain; second, the doctor and coach daring to say a peep about the prognosis and healing time before the dude was probably even recovered from the anesthesia; third, the horrible (and dangerous) playing surface (most high schools around here have nicer fields than that)...not only did RGIII get a season-ending knee injury, one of the Seahawks players did, too.
