Aaron Rodgers, Randall Cobb and the playoff picture

Good Morning all,

Well, what a game! I will readily admit that I thought we were buried at halftime.

Now, it gets interesting.

The playoff picture is simple.

Packers - At Lambeau Vs. The Steelers, At Soldier Field Vs. Da Bears

Lions - At Ford Field Vs the Ravens, at home again Vs. the Giants and away to Minnesota

Bears - Away at the Eagles, then at home vs. The Pack

With 10-4 records for Carolina/San Fran, the wildcard slots are taken. The only way to get into the dance is control our destiny and hope for a Lions loss in their next three games.

The time is now. We MUST take a shot with our big guns and control what we can. The pack winning the division rests on winning out, and hoping the Lions lose one out of three.

As well as Flynn just played, no matter how rusty, if Rodgers is available he must start. Bring Cobb into the mix, and should all go well, we will be hot coming into the playoffs.

Rodgers must be close now, and with the season on the line, I think putting him on the field would be justified. We have been (rightfully) cautious, but now is the time to pull the trigger. The season depends on it.

Zero2Cool is my captain.

You guaranteed a Cowboys TD while they were driving, to which they did NOT get a TD. You say you're a Packers fan? I say, I hate you. HATE WITH A DOUBLE EIGHT!!

Aaron Rodgers is done, out, gone for 2013 is my fear. And since I no longer need him in fantasy since I just got my ass handed to me, I'm sure he'll play and light it up.

I hope he is not done for the year, that would be fatal to the season.

The Cobb situation is a good point. I haven't heard a mouses' fart on him!

Getting both Rodgers and Cobb back would be huge for this team, with two important Wins needed to make the playoffs. If they can both come back, and our D keeps improving (yes, improving from yesterday's first half, though they often held DAL to FGs), we might be onto something.

musccy, I haven't heard anything on Cobb either. Last I heard, he said he was ready to come back, a couple of weeks ago?, but the medical staff didn't clear him...

Heard that Mark Murphy said Rodgers was just a bit short of being cleared. Bad thing about a collar bone, is there is NO way to protect it. As long as that scan shows it is healed, he will be on the field come gameday.

I also heard that Cobb has just been cleared to start running and was out on the field before the game running routes. Not all out though. I wouldn't expect him back until the play offs.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

beast (21h) : Not sure why a players views reflect on GB... instead of simply on the player

Martha Careful (17-May) : I bet some of us have had 6+ mRNA jabs, a UKR flag on our walls, and still think Fauci has a thread of integrity

Zero2Cool (16-May) : From what I've read, it's all Jets , not us.

CanPackFan (16-May) : Will there ever be a time when Rodgers' whacko views will not reflect on GB? He is the past, thank god.

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Jan 4th gonna be rough with that start time lol

Zero2Cool (16-May) : Packers schedule listed. Boom.

buckeyepackfan (15-May) : Let the leaks begin. Colts @ Packers week 2, Vikings @ Packers week 4

Zero2Cool (14-May) : WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to Bills

Zero2Cool (14-May) : Jets and Aaron Rodgers open up on Monday Night Football,

Zero2Cool (13-May) : $170 guaranteed. This might impact Jordan Love

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Lions are signing QB Jared Goff to a four-year, $212 million extension

Zero2Cool (13-May) : I know we moved on. That tidbit just makes me a touch happier.

Zero2Cool (13-May) : Sources spoke of many, many times last summer where Hackett called a play, then Rodgers changed it completely at the line

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : -3 buwahhhahaaha

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
