I do agree with your overall premise, but even an Aaron Rodgers at 80% of his potential game is enough to make the Packers competitive and possibly beat a team like the Cowboys. Did you see what the Bears just did to them?

All the Packers are accomplishing by winning right now is fucking up the opportunity to get the best center in the draft. But I'll join you jackasses on Sunday's chat rooting them on.

I don't see the Packers winning the division, which would be the only way they make the playoffs.
GB has to win their last 3 games. And I don't think AR is ready. (ONLY my opinion!)
A 80% AR is better then a 100% Flynn in my opinion.

I can see Detroit losing one of their final 3. But us losing even ONE makes that point moot.

And if we COULD win out, that would mean beating Chicago the last game of the regular season, which would gives us a better record then "Da Bears".

So it IS possble to win the division, but kind of unlikely.

I haven't given up hope though.
Having the Packers play one more game (meaning the playoffs) would mean getting to see them one more time, which would make me happy.

TX sometimes you are so funny. Of course it is speculation. Everything on this board is speculation. Nary a one of us sits down and has tea and crumpets with Uncle Teddy, Coach Mike or any of his staff including the doctors. None of the call us. None of them write us. They don't even tell the press the real inside story.

But that said almost no one who plays a professional sport and sits for any length of time comes back in perfect condition. Almost none of them plays at the same level they did before the injury. Certainly not that same season. Some never get it all back. It don't take mush of a genius to assume Aaron will have issues especially in the cold weather he will now have to deal with.

The question - and it's a major question with this crappy O-Line, is can he take a hit without re-breaking the collarbone?

As for speculation, yeah, I hear ya, although there actually are statistics, facts already in evidence, etc. Just the same, it's kinda weird when people are so afraid of being wrong that they start spewing NEGATIVE speculation just to cover their ass if we don't win (no, I don't necessarily mean you).

I would speculate that there is a 78.3% chance the Packers win the division if Aaron Rodgers is back Sunday (and stays healthy). There is also a 16.4% chance we win the division if Flynn/Tolzien are at QB. Does that add up to a 94.7% chance? No, I don't think the math works that way.
