TEMPE, Ariz. Tony Conigliaro Jersey . - More news surrounding the turbulent quarterback predicament of the Arizona Cardinals.Ryan Lindley is back as the starter, and Drew Stanton has been treated for an infection in his sprained right knee, a setback in his attempt to return for the playoffs.Coach Bruce Arians initially said rookie Logan Thomas would start in Sundays regular-season finale at San Francisco. But he said Friday he changed his mind based on Thomas performances in practice.I was hoping that he (Thomas) was going to be able to handle it, Arians said, but its not the time right now.Stanton, who has missed the last two games, experienced swelling in his knee on Wednesday. Arthroscopic surgery was performed Wednesday night to flush out the knee and treat it with antibiotics.Arians wouldnt talk about the infection, but said Stanton remains on schedule for next week.Hes at home and will stay there and rehab over the weekend and be ready to go next week, hopefully, Arians said.Thomas, a fourth-round draft pick from Virginia Tech, would have been Arizonas fourth starting quarterback of the season. Arians had said the rookie would have a very short hook, and that turned out to be true. He was removed from the starting job after one practice.The ball wasnt in spots it needed to be, Arians said. He was throwing it well, but not to the right guys. He just hasnt had enough reps to be able to go against this defence, which is one of the best five defences in the National Football League. It was probably a poor decision on my part to early announce it. ... Well do what we need to do to win the football game and thats to start Ryan.Arizona (11-4) still has an outside chance to win the NFC West, but St. Louis would have to beat the Seahawks in Seattle while the Cardinals win at San Francisco.Oddsmakers expect neither to occur. The Rams are 12 1/2-point underdogs in Seattle, the 49ers a 6 1/2-point pick over Arizona.The most likely outcome would have the Cardinals the No. 5 seed with a first-round playoff game at either Carolina or Atlanta.Lindley, signed off the San Diego practice squad after Carson Palmer went down with a season-ending knee injury, started last Sunday night at Seattle and was unimpressive. The third-year quarterback from San Diego State completing 18 of 44 passes for 216 yards in the Cardinals 35-6 loss.For the second straight game, Arizona didnt score a touchdown. Lindley has the dubious NFL record of most passes without a touchdown (225).Arians said the offences woes were not all Lindleys fault, citing dropped passes and penalties. Lindley, the coach said, did not go out and lose the ballgame.A running game would certainly help.After rushing for a combined 175 yards the previous two games, Kerwynn Williams gained 4 yards in two carries against Seattle. Arians said he expects the slashing running back to see more action against the 49ers.That was kind of rough, Williams said. But I expect us to be better this week and try to get back on track.___Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Jim Rice Jersey .

TORONTO -- While most of those in the stands undoubtedly recoiled when they saw Andersons Silvas gruesome leg break Saturday night at UFC 168 in Las Vegas, Steven Sanders had a different thought cageside. "The only question I had in my mind was how low down on the leg was the fracture," the UFCs orthopedic surgeon recalled in a media conference call Monday. "Because the level of the fracture influences my thinking as to what type of orthopedic device Im going to need to fix it. "But the minute it occurred, Im sitting there going Thats fixable." Amazingly, less than 48 hours after surgery to insert a titanium rod and three screws in his left tibia, the 38-year-old Brazilian was up on crutches, accorded to the surgeon. "Its amazing because I dont know if I would be able to do it that quickly," said Sanders. And the surgeon said Silvas question prior to the operation was when could he train again. Still the former middleweight champion is spending most of his time in his hospital bed, at this stage, with his leg in a posterior splint. "Hes behaving as anyone would who had just broke both their bones violently and then had a 11.5-millimetre-diameter rod stuck down the intramedullary canal of your tibia. It hurts quite a bit," Sanders said. The fighter is expected to stay in hospital for a few more days and faces a long recovery before he could compete in the cage again. But Sanders says Silva will eventually be able to resume mixed martial arts. The surgeon expects the fighters fractures to heal in three to six months, with a time frame of six to nine months before trying to resume training. "The expectation is positive," Sanders said. Silva (33-6) will be able to do some rehab work, to put some weight on the leg "in the near future as we get though this acute pain phase." Saturdays fight was stopped at 1:16 of the second round, with current middleweight champion Chris Weidman declared the winner as doctors attended to a writhing Silva. Silva broke both the tibia and fibula in his lower left leg kicking Weidman in the main event at the MGM Grand Garden Arena. Weidman checked the kick, meaning Silva went bone-one-bone. His leg snapped about a third of the way up the tibia from the ankle, causing his essentially untethered ankle and foot to swing around Weidmans leg in an stomach-churning moment. Silva, who up until his upset loss to Weidman in July at UFC 162 was considered the top pound-for-pound fighter on the planet, collapsed in agony. Sanders called it "horrific pain." Sanders said Dr. Anthony Ruggeroli immediately realigned the limb and applied traction, helping prevent the injuryy from getting worse. Hanley Ramirez Jersey. Silva was stretchered outside the cage under the direction of Dr. Jeff Davidson and taken to a waiting ambulance, which transported him to University Medical Centre Hospital, a Level 1 trauma centre. The operation lasted about an hour, with the rod inserted into his leg at the front of the knee, with a screw at the top and two at the bottom to stabilize the bone. While the fibula was also broken, Sanders elected not to operate on that bone because it would have required an incision at the site of the break, opening Silva up to the risk of infection -- among other reasons. Sanders says the fibula could heal on its own, adding he saw no evidence from X-rays there was an predisposition to a break. The surgeon called Silvas fracture "fairly severe," given the fact that the skin was essentially holding the leg together. That means the tissues that normally surround the bone, and help with the healing, have undergone trauma. The soft tissue recovery is "more of a variable" than the bone repair, said Sanders. The injury, while horrific to watch, could have been worse, with Sanders listing off the elements of a worse case scenario -- a break near the joint, the skin breaking, tearing a blood vessel challenging blood supply to the foot. "Unfortunately in my line of work, things can always sometimes be worse," he said. That includes "limb-threatening" if the fracture compromises vascular support to the foot. Silvas dramatic injury -- which Sanders pithily described as "an abnormal bend in the leg at a place where its not supposed to bend" -- was "extremely close" to being much worse On the plus side, the straight nature of the break will help in rehab, since a spiral fracture can "unwind." And the surgeon said the rehab wont be as intense as when fighters injure knee ligaments. The titanium rod can be removed at a later date or can stay in Silvas leg, Sanders added. "For whatever reason, humans like titanium." Sanders has worked with the UFC for more than a decade and has practised in Las Vegas since 1991, working with boxers prior to MMA fighters. Sivas injury recalled that of Corey Hill, who broke his leg while throwing a kick that was checked by Dale Hartt on a UFC card in December 2008. Hill returned to action in January 2010 and has gone 4-3 since, although not in the UFC. UFC light-heavyweight champion Jon (Bones) Jones said Silvas injury will not change his approach to fighting. "No Andersons last fight will not change my psychology towards kicking at all, that was just an extremely unfortunate situation," Jones tweeted.
