    Three weeks for a clavicle fracture? That sounds really light to me, no matter how "small" it is. The fracture itself usually takes at least four weeks to heal, and in a contact sport I would think even more time off would be needed because of the high risk of reinjury. And if it was the collar bone, wouldn't Rodgers have been wearing a sling? I won't be surprised if this report turns out to be wrong.

      Going to agree with this. Flynn can work in the right home, like GB. But I'd be surprised if they bring him back.

        Well, they have to bring in someone ASAP. I don't see why they wouldn't bring in Flynn. It's either him or Vince Young.

          Only thing that I can think is that they figured the fracture (if it *is*) would be so minor that Rodgers could just use his sweatshirt pocket to support his arm.

            Pump him full of stem cells.
            Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

                Yeah, this is some great news.

                One play and we are the Vikings.

                Solid D, no QB.

                    The Vikes D is one of the worst in the league. I don't buy the "We're the Vikes" crap.

                      I'll take 3 weeks. Not happily, but it could be so much worse.
                      Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

                        OK, who do you want us to be?

                          Type of "small" fracture on Rodgers clavicle will determine treatment and recovery. Medial (SC), lateral (AC), avulsion or incomplete etc.

                          Initial speculation by ESPN media is @AaronRodgers12 is out for 3 weeks. Waiting for CT scan results before giving medical estimate on time.

                          Signs on Rodgers injury point to a chip fracture rather than a break in the middle of the clavicle (collarbone) that would require surgery.

                            Scott Tolzien will be signed from the practice squad. They just increased his salary to the minimum if he were on the regular roster. They must like him. He should be more ready to step in than Flynn would be at this point.

                                Does Tolzien have an NFL arm?
