Season ending?
pretty much always from what I can remember.. Both torn biceps and triceps... there have been people whom have played with it but they aren't the same.

Trade multiple first round picks for Bosa.

I tore mine a few years ago and had it surgically repaired. I can't imagine he's going to play with it torn.

I place the blame for this firmly on the radio clowns at KTAR who have been saying the words "Super Bowl" over and over and over again like it is a foregone conclusion with this team. The Jynx is real, and it is in full effect right now. The table is set for this to be the most soul crushing season of all. lol :( Pray for us poor desolate Cardinals fans.

Depends on the tear. Adrian Wilson played the entire 2011 season with one.

Arizona Cardinals safety Adrian Wilson has a torn right biceps tendon and will try to rehabilitate the injury to avoid surgery that would sideline him for a longer period.

Coach Ken Whisenhunt would give no timetable for Wilson's return other than to say he expects the four-time Pro Bowler to play this season.

"That's one thing that is encouraging," Whisenhunt said. "It's just going to be a matter of how his body responds to the rehab. So far it's been very good."

Wilson, in a sometimes-playful post-practice session with reporters Monday afternoon, wasn't making any promises but is targeting a return in time for the team's season opener Sept. 11 against Carolina.

"I would love to be out there the first game. I would love to do that," he said. "That would be great. I've got a roster bonus coming up. I've got some things that depend on that, so I'd love to be out there the first game."

Not good. Now with Fitz and his MCL sprain. Need these guys to get healthy. I do like the idea of going after Bosa though. Don't think anyone can touch him until SD decides what they are going to do with him. Is that correct?

Bosa cannot be traded until next offseason, that window has closed.

I remember going to an event where AW was signing autographs after that season...the bicep muscle was clearly disfigured - how the heck he played through that is beyond me.

You would think that with Okafor being more depth than anything he could play, but it depends on the injury. If I remember correctly 2011 was not AW's best year. Then again it was a terrible year in general here.


AW was terrible in part to his age. That was his second to last year. Doesn't mean Okafor will be ok, we'll have to know how serious it is
