Raiders CB Ron Bartell Sidelined With Broken Shoulder Blade

Found September 11, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Ron Bartell
TEAMS: St. Louis Rams
Raiders starting left cornerback Ron Bartell suffered a broken left shoulder blade Monday night against San Diego and will be out for at least four weeks, ESPN is reporting.

Bartell reportedly will not have to undergo surgery and was scheduled to be examined by a specialist.

During his weekly press conference early Monday afternoon, Raiders coach Dennis Allen said Bartell was undergoing an MRI.

“Bartell has a shoulder injury,” Allen said. “I'm not sure the extent to the shoulder injury.”

Bartell suffered a season-ending injury in the first game last year with the Rams, breaking a small bone in his neck. Bartell, who signed a one-year contract with the Raiders, was injured Monday night against San Diego midway through the second quarter.

Via The Football Fan Spot  |  September 11, 2012
Last week: 12 (+0) Record: 0-1 And here’s the other half of the controversial prediction. On one hand, I nailed the Rams/Lions game. The Rams showed they were a better team than last year on both sides of the ball. On the other hand, my prediction of the Rams in the playoff only makes sense if the 49ers don’t prove me wrong. If Alex Smith improbably becomes a true franchise quarterback...

Titus Young was benched during Rams game for head-butting Janoris Jenkins

Titus Young is a player who many have said has breakout potential this season, but that will all depend on his attitude.

Detroit head coach Jim Schwartz benched Young at the end of the first...
