Dalton won't need surgery; may be back for playoffs

[kevin]

I would still bring in Ponder until Dalton is back, because McCarron needs a solid back-up, and what if the doctors are wrong about the time healing on this. My thumb could heal, but I'm not going to be throwing NFL passes. Does it heal fast enough for that....I hope it does.....but we should still bring in Ponder...and it could get re-injured very easy.....so bring in Ponder....and we could dump somebody and carry 3 QBs in the play-offs...The goal is Super Bowl, so lets load up at QB and go for it.
