    Panthers | S. Smith has Broken Leg; Out Indefinitely - from www.KFFL.com
    Mon, 13 Sep 2004 21:22:23 -0700

    Carolina Panthers head coach John Fox said WR Steve Smith (leg) suffered a broken left fibula during the team's loss to the Green Bay Packers Monday, Sept. 13. Fox refused to put a time table on how much action Smith would miss due to the injury.

    I just heard that Moose said in the post game (radio) that "Smitty is going to be out for the year"

    they asked fox in the post game interview (again radio), and he pretty much said they have no idea right now. in a nutshell.

    go back and look at the tape like I just did and tell me if it looks like a 4-6 week type of injury . ..

    I imagine that the fib broke low and it may have even dislocated by the way his foot seemed to pop and turn. I'm no doc but there are a bunch of ligaments and stuff down there and we all better hope that there is no significant damage other than the fibula fracture because that stuff can take a long time to heal.

    I know a guy who's foot got turned around almost 180 degrees in a pickup game and people could hear him screaming from literally a mile away. It dislocated and I'm pretty sure the fib broke too. There was ligament damage and that foot/ankle still does not work right . .. that was a much worse injury that this one though

    walking out of the stadium, an interview with Moose said he was gone for the year, by the time I got home, Rozinski was saying now it looks like 4-6 weeks...I'm just repeating

    I haven't seen the tape, or the hit...I was on the railing behind the bench where they carted him off while he kept a towel over his head, I think he was crying, no shit...nobody rode with him and the crowd cheered to Moose's TD
