You may have seen the quote from Green Bay Packers injured quarterback Aaron Rodgers this morning about him not declaring himself out for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings, but that his coach probably did. C'mon, Man! We love you, Aaron, but we're not going to buy into your games. We know you broke your

I do agree with the one person that said if he can't be back for the Lions game why even bother coming back the season will be over so he might as well heal completely and let Tolzein and noodle arm Flynn play for the backup spot next year.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Don't get me wrong, I'm not happy about another season of Rodgers prime down the tubes but with the way the NFL stacks the deck against winning teams and sustaining success, ending up in the top half of the draft due to your QB sustaining a non-throwing arm, non-ACL injury isn't the worse thing.

(Besides do you really trust Capers come playoff time?)

Oh defense, I don't even know where to start, but I would seriously think about a change to a 4-3. Getting linebackers was suppose to be easier than finding D-lineman, but we have failed miserably at this 3-4 defense because we haven't found the linebackers to play it properly.

As for Capers - he needs to be sent out to pasture.

I agree with that sentiment save for maybe bringing him back to stick it to the Bears.[mfing]

So are we gonna place more credence on a direct quote attributed to Rodgers himself? Or speculation from some media know-nothing?

What's gonna happen is gonna happen, but it ain't time to give up yet. If we lose to the Vikings and Lions, then pathetic loser #11 can have his satisfaction. Until then, I'll trust #12.

"We're still two weeks out of the injury against Chicago. It's a significant injury. I'm doing whatever I can to get back out on the field. Obviously, it's slow going," Rodgers said. "It's unlike any other injury I've had. I've had knee issues, a shoulder injury. I broke finger in college on my throwing hand. But those were all injuries I could play through.

packerfanoutwest (3h) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (3h) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (3h) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (5h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (5h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (5h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (5h) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (5h) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (5h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (5h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (5h) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (6h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (7h) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (7h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (7h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (7h) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (7h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (8h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (8h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (8h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (9h) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (9h) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (9h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (9h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (10h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (11h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (11h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (11h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (12h) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (12h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (12h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (12h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (12h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (12h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (12h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (12h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (12h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (12h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (12h) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (12h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (12h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (12h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (12h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (12h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (12h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (12h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (12h) : if bucs win out they win their division

beast (12h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us
