At this point in the 2018 season, with the playoffs out of the picture, Sit Rodgers and some others as well. TANK the remainder of the season to get higher draft picks in the 2019 NFL Draft. Wins at this point serve only to work against the Packers. In addition, reducing the risk of injury to 1st team players could serve to benefit next seasons campaign.

Also, giving 2nd and 3rd tier players regular season experience can give the Packers better depth moving forward.

Sit Him , I say Hell Yes !

Play kumerow extensively

If the player is at no further risk, they play. It's sickening to read fans wanting healthy players to sit. That is horrible, absolutely horrible leadership. If Aaron Rodgers is healthy, he plays. If he has a bum wheel, bum shoulder, THEN you sit his ass down.

Able bodies play. This is a TEAM game and they are paid for 16 games a season.

Let's not forget the words of Vince Lombardi.

Rodgers is healthy?

Ok

Ok, so Rodgers plays against the Jets on Sunday. With no possibility of the Packers getting into the playoffs or the Packers fighting for a higher seed and a bye in the playoffs. When a win could mean a lesser place to pick from in the 2019 NFL Draft and your risking your best asset for a return that that is not worth the risk. So during that game, being the competitor that he is, Rodgers gets badly injured, will you say that it was worth the risk?

Save your best assets for next season when they compete for something. Playing the best assets in two meaningless games is like killing yourself working for someone digging a ditch and getting paid 15 cents an hour, it's just not worth it.

Meaningless games? What a spoiled entitled group.

Which is better for the team? Winning a couple games to build momentum for next season or playing the young guys and getting better draft position?

Personally I think it's better to play the young guys and attain better draft position. The difference between drafting 8th vs drafting 15th has some real tangible value. Seeing which young players can contribute and which need replacing has value.

I think it's admiral that Aaron wants to finish out the season.
The obvious question is why should The Packers risk an injury to him.

It seems anyone with an injury that will take a couple of weeks or more to heal is being put on ir.

Why risk further injury?

There is going to be a whole new system to learn next year.

Any familiarity these young receivers get by playing with Aaron these next 2 weeks isn't going to matter next year as they all will have to learn the new system.

Aaron and Davante want to light it up the next 2 weeks, that's fine with me, just hope nobody gets injured.

If I can re-frame the argument...it is NOT a meaningless game. NFL live reps are extremely valuable in evaluating talent. Therefore, I want to see:
- If Kizer, after a full season in a system, can execute. I honestly don't know if he could be a star, a starter or an adequate back-up. I would like to know....and these live reps are valuable
- In turn, I would like to know whether Philbin can coach him up.
- I want to see whether there is a chemistry problem with our wide-outs and Kizer, or is it just 12.
- I want to see more of Spriggs at RT. He was comparable to Bulaga against Mack in game 1. So even if Bulaga can go, I want to see Spriggs.

Its not just about sitting 12. Winning the last two games is nice but I want what is best for the Packers future.

I fully respect the position of those of you who want the field the best team to win NOW and get momentum. But there is another valid point of view.

Since we are out of the playoffs, many of us want to field the team that will enable the front office to make decisions evaluate the roster so that more intelligent moves can be made in the off-season.

Get Davante to 1600. Give kumerow a chance to be Cobb. Lose both games.
