OFFICIAL AARON RODGERS THE LIVING LEGEND THREAD

[bobblehead]

I'm curious now. What's my schtick?

Same as most of us. Make outlandish claims then never admit when you're wrong. Its entertaining and harmless. Tex is the true master of it though, the rest of us are mere padowans.

I tend to be pretty boring in my claims.

Rodgers throwing in warmups today. Worst scenario for Packers would be Rodgers comes back to help Jets win games but doesn't play 65% of snaps. Could be a late 2nd pick.

That's a publicity stunt. No way he's back and ready to play an NFL game until late in the season, and by then it might take time to shake the rust off.

Sure, Cam Akers tore his Achilles in July and made it back for Week 18, but he was a much younger man, and his performance left something to be desired.
I wouldn't doubt Rodgers is using all kinds of crazy drug cocktails invented by some Bulgarian to help him recover faster and make crazy claims on the podcast circuit... but a 40 year old human body can only recover so fast.

He's probably throwing just because he wants to keep the muscle memory of it, and he probably genuinely misses doing it on the field.

Rodgers has never had a PED suspension so I think a first is only 4 games. He should be shooting the HgH with both hands. Come back in week 13. If he gets busted he serves it out during the time he would have missed if he stayed clean.

Cam Akers probably doesn't have the money to get the good stuff the way guys like Peyton, Kobe, etc do. Anybody think Rodgers isn't doing some crazy shiz here? I have no doubt he is getting every possible sketchy ass intervention. I would too with my legacy on the line. He kinda looks like a chump if he can't come back and do well in NYJ after the way he left.

There is no chance that Rodgers plays later this season. He can live in a hyperbolic chamber for the next 3 months…won’t matter. He’s not at an age where that injury is going to heal in 4 months.

How, exactly, is Rodgers moving so quickly? Jaramillo points primarily to the "speed bridge" technique used to accelerate recovery, which allows for early weight-bearing. It's a fairly new procedure that few surgeons are trained to perform, he said, and Rodgers' surgeon, Dr. Neil ElAttrache, a close colleague of Jaramillo's, is "quite the pioneer in sports medicine." He notably repaired Tom Brady's torn ACL in 2008, and the former Patriots QB "only got better," appearing in five more Super Bowls before retiring at 45.

The point is that Akers returned to football in a timeframe that would mean Rodgers could return for the Super Bowl if he came back at the same time. Akers had the same surgeon, but was also 15 years younger.

I’m sure he’ll do plenty of prancing around on the sidelines and in pregame the rest of the year. The diva can’t become a wallflower.

Sketchy ass intervention is probably more likely to increase the time it takes to heal than shorten it. Rodgers probably got something akin to an internal brace ( abstract here), but there is still a big difference between able to move around decently and being healed enough for full contact football.

Butte plays QB, not RB. Sloths like TB12 and P-Mann were able to dominate without mobility. And besides, if Butte could play on a bum calf, ain’t no reason he can’t play on a bum ankle.

Nah I don't think so, they can give you all sorts of stuff to stimulate healing. It's just not illegal or accessible to the normies.

What do you mean not illegal to the normies?

[call_me_ishmael]

Legal.

[RashanGary]

Legal.

I’ve never heard that drugs are legal for rich and famous people but not legal for us. I cant find anything about it either.
