I don't see Nelson playing anymore this season. The illegal hit he took was really nasty.
The way he was hanging his head as they carted him off makes me feel even more so that he's done.
He was a major part of the O. Rodgers always looked for him. Even though he didn't have the speed he used to, he caught plenty of TD's this year, and was dependable.
I hope they fine the guy that hit him. BIG time.

NYG has the best secondary out of all the teams left in the post-season, and we dropped 38 on them without Jordy Nelson.

It's a blow, but this shouldn't be an excuse if we do get knocked out of the playoffs. Aside of a head-scratcher on 4th down, McCarthy has been excellent with the playsheet.

I'm not picking on you, blueleopard. It's just that so many times on this board I have seen posters blast Mike McCarthy for being too conservative.
Yes, I didn't think they should have gone for it there either. But I can't knock the coach for keeping his foot on the gas against the Giants.

There’s only 4 weeks left so not enough time to get another WR up to speed, so it’ll have to be a guy who’s been here. Not sure Jordy’s done. Wentz had a hairline fracture and he was playing in 4 weeks. Rivers had bruised ribs with cartilage damage and didn’t miss a game.

McCarthy said Jordy will not practice until Saturday, though he spent night in hospital. WOW, this is good news!!! BUT, we know Mike’s injury reports can’t be trusted, he could be just keepin’ Dallas in the dark. Pennell being cut helps with putting a 7th WR [or 8th if we count Monty] on roster. To replace Jordy, here’s the shortlist of options:

• We got Janis and Davis [But, both were leaped over by Geronimo!]
• Monty could move back to WR, though I can hear WPR arguing you cant have a guy with a running back body just move to WR.
• Abby-the dork signed with Lions today. Surely his agent called GB before he did that and this might mean they think Jordy has a chance to play Sun.
• Jones Jones was in camp with Chargers and after being cut before week 1 said he wanted to stay in bay area where he lives and play for SF. He said it’s a waiting game. If he has stayed in shape over the last 4 months, he’s an option.
• Myles White-Spent parts of 2015 on Giants roster and was in camp with them in 2016 and Giants run a similar offense to ours. He spent last 6 weeks month of season on Bucs prac sqd, so he is another strong choice.
• Can we do a waiver deal with AZ, for Jeremy Ross?
• I think he’s done, don’t want him, but I’ll put him on list: Greg Jennings.
• Convert Waters back to WR [LOL-let’s really mess with his head]
• There’s 2 PS guys; they haven’t been here that long and missed camp, so I can’t see this.
• Andre “Bad Moon” Rison is not even 50 yet, and he is plug and play. I know Wolf would sign him, if he were our GM!

Makes you wonder how much of an injury he actually has. Is saying they won't know until Saturday just a ploy to make Dallas plan for him or is he really not injured as bad as everybody thinks making Dallas also try and figure out what the packers would do without Jordy.. Could he just have bruised ribs where there is no increased risk of injury and all he will need is a painkiller shot before the game.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

All this handwringing over Jordy Nelson is so unnecessary. We have Aaron Ripkowski, guys. Line him out wide like we did against the Giants and let him fly. If he doesn't finish the day with 120 yards and three touchdowns, I'll eat my hat. Or I would if I wore hats. [giddity]

You can't lose a guy like him and not hurt. The ONLY thing that helps is: that it happened last week, and we had time to prepare for him not being there.
Plus having Randall "Corn" Cobb and Davante "Gomez" Adams helps a lot.

Aaron was physically present, but he was locked into sandlot mode.

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
