When the medical staff didn't give Aaron Rodgers medical clearance to play against the Steelers, they basically proved how much smarter they are than we are.

The Packers lost to the Steelers, but two goals the Packers had at the start of the season are still within reach.

Giants eliminated the Lions from the playoffs with their over time win.

Eagles anniliated the Bears last night.

Essentially, yesterday didn't happen in terms of playoff clinching.


BOW DOWN TO THE MEDICAL STAFF'S GENIUS'!!

If we manage to get into the playoffs I will give them a bow. Bears were humiliated on national television so they go into the game pissed off with a chance at redemption. We need to play a whole lot better to beat them at home.

Only Texas knows that there is no chance for further injury with Rodgers and since he is obviously a medical doctor who has been in close consult with Pat McKenzie throughout Rodgers' injury I suggest we all get behind him. I'm sure he will take up the imbecile banner and wave it with vigor.

As for me, I'm rather neutral on it all. Yeah I would like to see Rodgers play and for the most part I feel that if he wants to play so badly they should let him. I also feel that permanent risk is probably minimal. On the other hand if there is risk why take the chance. Look at Matthews and Lacy. I'm not saying there is a direct parallel but Lacy was playing with a bum foot and now it may be a more serious injury and we don't know the extent of Matthews injury, or re-injury, as the case may be. Thankfully in both of their cases it shouldn't be anything that hampers the rest of their career (I hope)

I personally believe they should err on the side of risk with Aaron. But given the circumstances, we have no idea whatsoever how severe the injury was or how far it's healed.

Not only that, but as I've stated repeatedly, it's NOT the QB position that's holding us back.

If he don't play this week then there will be alot of name slinging going on. and to me it will also fall back on Rodgers even though it wouldn't be fair.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

You would think watching Matthews go out re-injuring himself when playing when not being 100% healed, we might stop questioning playing Rodgers before healed. Flynn got sacked 3 times.

But I guess if Rodgers would have been in, he probably wouldn't have tried to get that first down resulting in a fumble. Allowing our MVP to punt the ball away and quite possibly forcing OT.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

The fact that the Packers have their goals of division championship available is all we asked for when Rodgers went down. Do you remember that?

As long as the Packers are still in it when Rodgers comes back, I'm good.

That is what many of us said.


Packers held Rodgers out. Packers can win the division.


That said, I do not think Rodgers is playing again for the 2013 season, but there is no question about it, holding him out was the right decision.

The reality is that none of us bums know the details behind Rodgers injury. Of course Rodgers says he wants to play. What's he supposed to say? "Oh no guys, my clavicle is still pretty sore, I don't wanna go back out there." Rodgers saying he's ready and wants to play to the public is pretty meaningless, in my opinion, and for one to act like that's truly definitive evidence of anything is just being silly. I always thought it was a well known fact that players usually want to play regardless of many injuries. How many players would continue playing with concussions (brain bruises)? It's the job of trained medical professionals to determine if a player is ready to play an NFL game. If the medical staff hasn't determined that to be the case and hasn't convinced the coach and management staff that the player is ready, then the player shouldn't play. It's really as simple as that. It's really not up to Rodgers, or any other player, and it shouldn't be. NFL players are not doctors.

It's really entertaining to me how strong the opinions are that some develop without truly knowing the facts or data behind the circumstances. Again, I can't say that surprises me, at all.
