    It makes ZERO sense to me to play Aaron Rodgers again if he's just 80-81 % healed.

    Just let this Season play out and allow 100% healing.

    That's just my thinking and my IQ and Life is simply about common sense.

    The Green Bay Packers are just frankly not a good Football team this year and the NFC is loaded with good football teams.

    Why risk Aaron Rodgers for any short term and improbable chance and Playoffs or about 40%; and after that, a miserable one and done once in the Playoffs.

    My prediction based on common sense:

    Aaron Rodgers is done this Season
    and there are too many other reasons the Green Bay Packers want it just that way.

    Everyone back next Season for another 'Brand New Fresh Start'.

    Bringing him back really makes no sense. This team is pathetically terrible, they aren't a championship team.

    It's hard to take this seriously. Packers were 4-1 with Rodgers. They nearly beat Pittsburgh without him. I get the accumulated injury deal, but that's a problem for everyone. Just ask Philly. You never know what's going to happen. Maybe with Rodgers back, and with a two-headed running game, the Packers could dominate TOP against other teams and protect their defensive-back depleted defense and be totally competitive. If Rodgers is healthy, who knows - maybe he gets as blistering hot as in 2010 and they run a team off the field when they weren't supposed to and it propels them to Championship. Careers are limited, you never want to miss an opportunity, no matter how improbable.

    I think if Rodgers had not gotten hurt, they would be 10-3 right now and right in the hunt for best record in the NFC. The cornerback situation would be an issue, but they would be a team others couldn't take lightly.

    I had them at 10-3 as well. Losses at ATL, MN, Pittsburgh. Figured they lose at Carolina and win MN and at Det.

    Maybe they would even be 11-2 because of Pitt, but unsure.

    Still, why the hell give up now? At least wait until after Carolina...

    This is important. One thing the Rodgers-less offense has done is found that they have a couple of great young RBs, at least one of whom can catch.

    True, but I doubt stubby utilizes them if he has Rodgers back.

    Mike might if wants to keep defenses honest and to protect his QB's mended collarbone.

    Yes. We have to be happy about that and the RB position.

    We know we have a REAL RB (s) on our Team's Roster. We needed to see that develop this Season and I think we got there.

    That's the little glimmer of hope that clicks with me. I've always heard that an O-Line prefers run blocking and that it really helps when the D doesn't know exactly what you're going to do. Keeps them off balance and easier to handle.

    This.

    And even if we miss the playoffs I'm just happy now we can watch competent QB play again for our favorite team.

    So the two available options are pathetically terrible and championship level. Fuck gray am I right? All black and white.

    They say 80% healed is suitable to play. Assuming it's true that Rodgers wants to play, PLAY HIM!

    I've been a big supporter of Hundley, but the fact is, the game at Carolina is probably the toughest of the three, and it's unlikely we could win it without Aaron Rodgers. If we lose at Carolina with him, then sit him out.

    What's the worst case? Back to square one with a re-break. He then still should be completely healed by next season.
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

    Who here thinks Rodgers can step on the field Sunday and play at the same level he was at before being carted off the field?

    I like you, you've got spirit. I'd like to share an incredible opportunity with you. I'm selling gold commemorative packer coins, have only a few left. Send me a private message and I'll share the opportunity with fellow good people.
