WHAT SHOUD WE DO WITH AROD THE LAST TWO GAMES ??

[texaspackerbacker]

"mentor the back ups"? Callahan is gone, right? Hundley is the only back up right now. Rodgers still has to be available if Hundley gets hurt - unless we re-sign Callahan or bring in somebody else. I agree with Pugger, sitting him is probably bad for team morale. Maybe sharing time with Hundley is best - showcase Hundley for a probable trade. It's about like preseason the rest of the way.

Showcase Hundley? He's already played 7 games, he's all shown out. He's not getting traded because he isn't worth trading for.

season's all but done. shut him down.

+ ONE

Funny thing... I have had 2 different people ask me if Rodgers is going to seek to get out of Green Bay. They heard he was "unhappy". I'm under the assumption there is some rumor floating around amongst Broncos fans that ARod might somehow wind up in Denver because I have not heard it anywhere else.

[texaspackerbacker]

I wonder if it's the same idiots hating on Hundley as hate Capers so much? Or a different set of idiots?

Atlanta wins; there is the final dagger

Shut him down

[woodbuck27]

Seems to be the question of the week; the season is done. I'd spin it that we know he's not 100% and we want to give an opportunity for the others.

And get the draft pick

That is absolutely the correct option.

The Packers are done this Season. Let Aaron Rodgers heal totally.

If they (TT and MM) allow Aaron Rodgers to play and he gets more serious damage Packer Nation will be fully justified in asking for TT and MM's heads on a platter.

Will they be so stupid as to allow such a risk?

Only if they are as stupid as I see both being; and both TT and MM have a LOCK on their positions as GM and HC respectively.

I heard Erin Andrews say during the Carolina broadcast that Rodgers told her if they weren't in contention for the playoffs, he wouldn't have played because he isn't 100%. I'm guessing one more week didn't get him to 100% and they have nothing to play for, so - even though I want them to crush the life out of the Vikings - there is absolutely no reason to play him if he isn't 100%. Good luck, Hundley. I hope you light MN up. What I most want to see is Barr buried in the Lambeau turf. Send a message that that shit isn't going to be tolerated. #58 for Carolina needed to be buried as well and wasn't, so I'm betting the pussified NFL players won't make it happen.

A Packer win would end the Vikings chances of having home field advantage through the playoffs. Would anyone be more inclined to want Rodgers to play if it lessens the Vikings chances of winning the Super Bowl?

[Carolina_Packer]

With Atlanta's win ending the Packers slim playoff hopes, and with Joe Callahan having been re-signed, it would seem pretty clear that A-Rod will now sit it out the rest of the year. It's what's best in the long run.

Even with Rodgers they wouldn't beat the vikings. Mn is really good this year, and GB is not good.

Packers showed a lot better against Carolina than the Vikings, negative Nancy.

[yetisnowman]

Agree that if he still feels hampered or less than 80 ish percent he shouldn't play. Otherwise he should. I have a tough time laying down to the Vikings/Lions with their playoff situation on the line. Barring injury Hundley and Callahan don't have a future here. Throw callahan in if the game isn't close in the 2nd half.

Yeah, I kinda think that too. But I cannot get the 4 minute offense the Panthers went into for the 4th quarter. The play calling reminded me of the last Panther game in Carolina.

I would almost call the final result a decent one if not for the sneaking suspicion that the Panthers just stopped passing. Should go back and look at the play calls. Packers were able to crowd up to the LOS and play much more aggressive with the run looks the Panthers were showing. Panthers did well when they went one back and spread the Packers out to pass.

I have the same basic suspicion of the run defense. That they weren't tested under typical game close conditions.

I half wish Capers would have said screw it about big play and played everyone within 15 yards. But that is just choosing different holes to plug when there are more holes than plugs.

Come on...

If the outcome was true - then why'd he play vs Falcons at all?

I'd say we can beat Queens with Hundley.
