CaptainHook Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Minnesota Vikings running back Mewelde Moore mildly sprained his left ankle in the second quarter of a preseason game against San Diego, but he said afterward he felt fine. Bennett and Moore are the injury twins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outshined Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 951089[/snapback] Exactly..and if the season started tommorrow, Adimchinobe Echemandu would be the starter unless Tice plugged Moe Williams in. This guy has 8 carries for 25 yards in his pro career. The Vikes need to draft a RB next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outshined Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 They drafted one this year (Fiason) and he sprained his knee 951382[/snapback] He sprained his anke and he actually one tough kid. He took the boot after 4 days and told Tice he wanted to play in the San Diego game. Doctors told him he needed 2-3 weeks to recover. Thats good to see in a player, but of course you don't want to over do it and cause further injury. When I meant draft a RB, I was thinking a 1st round type of player.

Jimmy Neutron Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 Moore is just fine, he'd play if it was important. He'll own the starting RB job soon enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhayhurst Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 I like your thinking J. Neutron, just picked up M. Moore off of WW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll own the starting RB job soon enough. 951517[/snapback] the question is, can he maintain it? He had ankle sprains last year if I remember correctly.

mhayhurst Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 It's the same ankle from last year that took like 5/6wks to heal. "It was just a pop...an adjustment"-Moore. Let's hope so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaterMan Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 You can run on a sprained ankle a week later if you wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not quite sure how to spell the name of that fine product) 951635[/snapback] Well, capn grunge recently switched a team name to "The Amazing Whizzinator", so in shorthand it could be that.
