    It's all very interesting.

    I simply want arguably the finest NFL Player 100% ready to play and be protected.

    If the Packers are eliminated from the Playoff I see no advantage in him playing unless he insists he wants to play.

    If we are eliminated, NFW would I send Rodgers back out there.

    I could see Rodgers coming back and if we win the last three savings some jobs and we can all be upset when Dom returns

    So when MM would be asked "Why aren't you playing Aaron Rodgers?", what should his answer be?

    If Mike decides to shelve him for the season even after the team doctors have cleared him to play he'd have to fib and say the bone isn't healed. The fans and the media might not know the truth but you can bet everyone at 1265 will know. This just sets a poor precedence and can poison a locker room.

    0% chance that Aaron returns if we are out of playoff hunt.

    M3 should tell everyone straight up. Football is violent sport. We lost this season and are preparing for next year. It's not worth risking an injury to the nfls best player. And then the gbp should do like the brewers did and give fans cheaper food, parking or proshop as a 'thank you'

    I approve. Your last idea would be an acknowledgement that a lot of people paid good money to watch Rodgers play and are not getting it because of a coach's decision. Maybe as a good will gesture, the medical device company Synthes could give out free mock plastic compression locking plates (for bone fixation) to fans as they come into the stadium.

    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    OK so here it is:

    The Season is all on the line this week and the Packers MUST defeat Cleveland.

    Then we'll see Aaron Rodgers back and he's ready health wise Vs the Carolina Panthers in Week 15.

    Right now an Analyst I respect (hahaha) has the Packers at an Approx. 9% chance of making the Playoffs.

    With the return of Aaron Rodgers that chance increases to about 39% and they should get the NO. 6 Seed.

    The Bottom Line is an issue and now ... 'This Week 14'.

    The Green Bay Packers need a Win VS the Browns or it's all over for this Season. I believe that the Green Bay Packers will defeat the Cleveland Browns but in order for that to happen QB Brett Hundley must play very well. He has to get yards through the air (HC Mike McCarthy) like he did Vs the Pittsburgh Steelers.

    The Cleveland Browns have a solid Run 'D'; ranking what?...6th in the NFL.

    A few things to add. It's not a given that Rodgers won't come out and play a stinky game when he first comes back. Will stubby try to adjust things so AR isn't put into situations where he may get hit. By doing this Rodgers can't play as he normally would and is not effective.

    But even if he plays a stinky game it will be light-years better than what we've endured these past 7 weeks with Hundley in there.

    Do what TT does when interviewed; say much about nothing

    For example,

    Our doctors have examined Aaron Rodgers and we're happy how he progressed, but we feel it's in the best interests of Aaron and the Packers Organization to keep him on IR to ensure he's 100% next year

    Some people pay serious money to watch Rodgers. For example I paid $5 for a premium ticket to see him play today and I get Hundley and The Kaiser.

    We pay over $100 face value for season Packer tickets. Should we get money refunded to us when ARod gets hurt?

    Not directed at you specifically. Just adding to the silliness of the thread.
    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.
