There's so much media fabricating with Rodger's status it's ridiculous. I heard Dion Sanders say "He's gotta be hurt, he would be playing against the cowboys if he wasn't in a lot of pain. They have to shut him down for the season". What an idiot.

I find it hard to believe you or any fan would have a problem with him playing as soon as humanly possible. All this medical clearance crap would never have happened a couple of decades ago, and the league is worse for it now.

I actually think it would be very cool if Flynn took us to the playoffs. Shut these fuckers up about Rodgers being our only player. That said if Rodgers can play - he should. But be warned, he'll be rusty, don't expect us firing on all cylinders right off the bat. And if you do, shame on you.

“I think I may have mentioned rust last week. I think my definition of rust and other people’s is a little different. I would rely on the guys, their answers to see how they thought I looked last week. I felt pretty good.”

He'll be fine after one quarter or two series which ever comes first.

If AP was far enough along in his recovery to practice normally with the team, then you have a comparison. If he asked to play at THAT point, I doubt they woulda said no.

He will be fine.

as pfwt just wrote about, this isn't some injury where you can wear some protective gear like cm3 or rg3. Some doctors with many more years of schooling and many more years of experience than you, me, MM, AR, or ESPN have said it's not safe or wise to return yet...I trust their opinion.
