Nonstopdrivel;411737Yeah, there's no reason not to sit Rodgers at this point.

No reason to pay him either but now they have to.

I'm good with this too. I don't think that leg is right. I'm wondering if what some of you said about his collarbone not healing right is true too. Everything I had read was his collarbone couldn't affect his arm. I think I read what I hoped instead of fact.

Sit Rodgers on IR. Heal his ass up. Use those first round picks on defense. Bring some studs from free agency. Studs as in good tier 2 guys who make plays and do their job.

I'm not an orthopedist, so I don't know what the possible ramifications are of a collarbone injury. It would obviously depend on where the collarbone was fractured, and I'm not sure that information was ever released. But the clavicle does articulate with the acromion process at the top of the shoulder in what's called the acromioclavicular joint, so I'd be surprised if a collarbone injury couldn't affect the mobility of the shoulder in some way. In any case, either Rodgers is having psychological issues, which we've seen in other quarterbacks who have been hit too many times (and which I repeatedly predicted a few years back would eventually happen to him eventually), or he isn't fully healed. Or he doesn't give a shit anymore. I tend to agree with Kevin that it's physical issues. Hopefully, Rodgers has the humility to let the training staff tear him down and build him back up this offseason. None of these nonsensical no-dairy diets and whatever other faddish health trends he's been following the past few years.

Incidentally, the Vikings threw salt on the wound by absolutely destroying the Dolphins today. Nothing went right for the Packers this week.

Nonstopdrivel;411739@HistoricPackers Today’s loss means the Packers will finish below .500 for the second-straight season, which is the first time that has happened since


78-79 I believe

Tough season all the way around. The last two years it hasn't been one thing but a lot of different issues all wrapped up that led us to this situation. Hind sight being 20/20 MM/TT both stayed 3 years too long. Onward to finding a new HC and staff and for the front office to really concentrate on the draft.

Merry Christmas to all at Packershome. Peace

Actually, it was '90 and '91.

Aaron NaglerI hate that it took them until being down 10 in the 4th quarter to get to a hurry up offense. Did they seriously think that a traditional approach was the best way to attack this Bears defense? Just asinine.

Aaron Nagler and I don't always see eye to eye, but on this we could not agree more.

There hasn’t been much that the Packers have done right this year.
I’m glad the “playoffs” talk is now officially over. Had they made the playoffs, they would have been one and done anyway.
They don’t have the talent right now.

If the season were to end today, the Packers would be drafting 11th.

Apparently Bears left tackle Charles Leno, Jr. got engaged after the game today. A sweet little moment. Congratulations to the happy couple.
