RapSheet says Nelson Diagnosis is torn ACL

[pbmax]

Will need to be confirmed by MRI later.

The initial diagnosis on #Packers WR Jordy Nelson is a torn ACL, source said. Horrible news. Awaiting MRI results to confirm.

[MadScientist]

Fuck!

[pbmax]

Yep. It happened when he landed with leg extended on one leg only after initial jump. First reaction was right.

[Guiness]

His season done if that's the case 8-(

This is BIG blow to our offense. Have to wonder now who steps up? I would expect Adams but Janis is more of a Jordy type receiver.

[Packgator]

Obviously a huge loss. Jordy and Rodgers are so in sync with each other. Can't replace that.

[pbmax]

I will eat my hat if its not his left (landing) knee.

With Nelson out. Let's see how good @AaronRodgers12 really is. #Packers

The shadow of THE CHOKE looms bigger with each passing pre-season game and each injury.

I appreciate Jordy Nelson as much as the next person but no one really thinks that Aaron Rodgers is going to "struggle" without him. Right?

Terrible blow but a door open for Abberderis.

If Jordy Nelson misses 2015, he'll be just 2nd player to gain 1100 rec yards in Year N & 0 in Year N+1.

First? Sterling Sharpe 20 yrs ago.

Nooo...

[Packgator]

I hope I'm wrong, but.....

The Packers can't win the super bowl with Jordy out for the year. He makes to many important plays. Some of those important plays can be replaced, but not all of them.

[Smidgeon]

Okay, who had Nelson in the injury pool?

What does that mean?

Sucks but he is not a Calvin Johnson. We can survive.
