I don't see the point in getting mad at cautious people for making cautious decisions. Tony Romo had a similar injury in 2010 and missed the rest of the season. I would like to know why Aaron Rodgers thinks he can play. I’d also prefer to know why Mike McCarthy seemingly lobbied for him to play this week. The decision itself doesn’t surprise me, but I find those tidbits interesting.

Matt Flynn is starting, though, and I’m sure we all hope he’ll lead the team to victory. Maybe I'm misreading things, but if the Packers miss the playoffs, I get the feeling some are waiting to pounce on the front office for their cautious approach. No one game determines the regular-season.

The Packers could’ve signed Flynn after Oakland cut him. They didn’t and Flynn spent a week or two with Buffalo. Mike McCarthy made a poor decision in going to Scott Tolzein. What would’ve happened had Flynn started the full game against Minnesota? Finally, the Packers could have also defeated Cincinnati earlier in the year with Aaron Rodgers. There are many moving parts to a season.

Betting odds have been OFF all week.

Soon as the announcement is made Vegas makes the Packers 2.5 point favorites.

And for the FOOL who brought up the "6-8 years" thing, Rodgers could get sacked and break the thing in half - HIGHLY UNLIKELY - and it wouldn't jeopardize next season and beyond one iota.

It is funny how much better we handled this than the Redskins. God what a mess that is in DC.

Word is, two weeks ago the bone was less than 75% healed. It is an injury you can't cast to protect. If not completely healed, it would take very little pressure to re-break.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

This seems stupid. It is a broken collar bone. He plays after being medically cleared, the way it should be.

Redskins brought RG3 back too soon... and reinjured himself, he healed in the offseason... and still doesn't look the same, and no one knows if he'll ever be the same again.

If Rodgers isn't 100% then he's not 100%.

Also this could lock up the rookie of the year for Lacy. Getting his team into the playoffs.

He's hurt, isn't allowed to play.
Can't do anything about it.
Hopefully Flynn can come through again!

beast (5h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (5h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (5h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (5h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (5h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (5h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (6h) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (6h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (6h) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

Zero2Cool (8h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (8h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (8h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (8h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (8h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (20h) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (21h) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol
