Aaron Rodgers, Randall Cobb and the playoff picture

Good Morning all,

Well, what a game! I will readily admit that I thought we were buried at halftime.

Now, it gets interesting.

The playoff picture is simple.

Packers - At Lambeau Vs. The Steelers, At Soldier Field Vs. Da Bears

Lions - At Ford Field Vs the Ravens, at home again Vs. the Giants and away to Minnesota

Bears - Away at the Eagles, then at home vs. The Pack

With 10-4 records for Carolina/San Fran, the wildcard slots are taken. The only way to get into the dance is control our destiny and hope for a Lions loss in their next three games.

The time is now. We MUST take a shot with our big guns and control what we can. The pack winning the division rests on winning out, and hoping the Lions lose one out of three.

As well as Flynn just played, no matter how rusty, if Rodgers is available he must start. Bring Cobb into the mix, and should all go well, we will be hot coming into the playoffs.

Rodgers must be close now, and with the season on the line, I think putting him on the field would be justified. We have been (rightfully) cautious, but now is the time to pull the trigger. The season depends on it.

Zero2Cool is my captain.

You guaranteed a Cowboys TD while they were driving, to which they did NOT get a TD. You say you're a Packers fan? I say, I hate you. HATE WITH A DOUBLE EIGHT!!

Aaron Rodgers is done, out, gone for 2013 is my fear. And since I no longer need him in fantasy since I just got my ass handed to me, I'm sure he'll play and light it up.

I hope he is not done for the year, that would be fatal to the season.

The Cobb situation is a good point. I haven't heard a mouses' fart on him!

Getting both Rodgers and Cobb back would be huge for this team, with two important Wins needed to make the playoffs. If they can both come back, and our D keeps improving (yes, improving from yesterday's first half, though they often held DAL to FGs), we might be onto something.

musccy, I haven't heard anything on Cobb either. Last I heard, he said he was ready to come back, a couple of weeks ago?, but the medical staff didn't clear him...

Heard that Mark Murphy said Rodgers was just a bit short of being cleared. Bad thing about a collar bone, is there is NO way to protect it. As long as that scan shows it is healed, he will be on the field come gameday.

I also heard that Cobb has just been cleared to start running and was out on the field before the game running routes. Not all out though. I wouldn't expect him back until the play offs.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!
