I'm speaking purely from a Cardinals team perspective. Frankly at this point, I'm less concerned about fantasy and more concerned about how the whole team looked and how they seemingly just gave up and were completely deflated once DJ went out. The Lions scored FOUR straight TDs after DJ went down. Humphries has been very good. DJ could make up for his loss, but Williams and Ellington are not yard creators. Funny most people calling in this morning are less concerned about DJ and more concerned about how bad Palmer looked, the lack of a backup/replacement QB, Humphries injury and the defense. Not a good morning in the desert. Link to post Share on other sites
jdegs7 77 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Definitely would not mind if David Johnson sits out a week or two to recover rather than toss him out there with an ailing arm -next week is definitely a game(vs Colts) that the cardinals can afford to rest up Johnson. Sucks that we miss out on such an easy matchup, but rather avoid the risk and have high-end RB1 production the rest of the way. Link to post Share on other sites

sportball 37 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Still holding my breath for positive news, but Mortenson has been wrong more often than not, so while worried I always saw that as the hope I could hang onto about the initial report. Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of his value comes from his receiving capabilities, not just running, so a healthy wrist is essential obviously. Just saying that it wouldn't be the most foolish idea to let your stud bellcow running back rest a week against a pathetic one-dimensional team in order to avoid reaggravation and boost long-term prospects for the rest of the season.

Why does the guy think wrist strength/mobility is meaningless? Even if no broken bones there's a lot of damage that can be done that would severely inhibit a RB's ability to play well Link to post Share on other sites

iretirefromfantasy 1,154 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 David Johnson's situation is less about the MRI, more about the functional grip strength. Harder to get a read on that for at least few days 8:34 AM - 11 Sep 2017 Link to post Share on other sites

ludawg23 1,982 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 After years of playing this game, I learned that speculating will only drive you crazy and you will hit F5 every 2 mins.

iretirefromfantasy 1,154 Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 There were reports on Sunday night that Johnson will miss multiple weeks as a result of the injury, although a source told PFT that there was no such determination made yet. General Manager Steve Keim said the same during a Monday morning appearance on “Doug & Wolf” on 98.7 FM in Arizona. “He’s going to get an MRI this morning and I’ll find out a little bit more,” Keim said. “But there was no conclusions based off last night’s information.” Link to post Share on other sites
