**** Official Aaron Rodgers injury thread ***** (1 Viewer)

Not good...

Per Rotoworld:

Speaking on his Tuesday radio show, Aaron Rodgers (collarbone) said he still felt pain making "simple movements" in last week's practice, and that he's unsure if he'll be ready to face the Cowboys.

 
I listened to his radio show, it sure sounds like he's going to miss another week just by the way he was talking.

Tomorrow will be a critical test to see if he practices/does more w/o pain.

 
Wow. With the best matchup humanly possible coming up versus the Cowboys in a shoot out game. In the Fantasy Playoffs no less. What a huge disappointment this guy is.

 
What I don't get is all of his talk about returning week 12 originally - what a bum.
The original team diagnosis was 4-6 weeks. This Sunday is 6 weeks. Some people are slow healers I guess.
You just keep up the effort...
Apparently some people are slow learners as well. Never mind multiple actual doctors (not just holiday inn express guests) have repeatedly stated that this is not a case of fast vs slow healer. Maybe lashing out at "Erin" helps these folks to compensate for certain shortcomings of their own. :shrug:

2013 season

7 games

15 touchdowns

Even before the injury Erin was having a rather pedestrian season. 2.1 touchdowns per week. Thank God for his 4TD performance in week 2 against the putrid Redskins. That was the highlight of his season.

This article basically says that it's a 3-6 week injury, and the number one determinant of actually length of time is the individual's healing ability. It is what it is.

I've heard otherwise from any number of doctors, and still not sure why people must somehow put down Rodgers - as if they could stand on sack and not crumple to the ground in a crying mess.

The Erin comments say a lot about those who use then IMO. Guy has as many championships as favre and appears far less selfish but yeah let's call him a wuss ( and, fwiw, I could really use Rodgers back in my lineup )

 
I'm only upset b/c ARod was talking about being back for the Thxgiving game, which gave me totally false hope when trading for him. Oh well, win some, lose some.

Well...if Im going to believe anyone...its an article from bleacher report...rather than the doctors who actually have examined Rodgers and seen his scans and xrays.

By the way...did you miss this in your article? "Clavicle fractures can carry a wide range of recovery times. Many factors, such as the presence of associated injuries, fracture location and individual player characteristics all come into play."

And nowhere does the article state actually that its a 3-6 week injury.

There was only something about a Shefter tweet that said it "could" be a 3 week injury. The article actually stated week 3 was when bone generally begins the intitial stages of reattachment. And the rest was speculation that he could be from 4-6 weeks.

So again I say...you just keep up that effort.

 
You reckon Flynn is a good play against Dallas?
You saw McCown carve up DAL last night right?

I tentatively have him plugged in as my 2nd QB as my superflex
McCown is playing with poise, confidence, and possibly the best WR/WR/RB combo in the NFL... Granted, in a league where you can start two QB's, the pickings can get slim, but Flynn is just not good.
I agree...Flynn is not as good, and right now the Bears OL plus gameplanning is superior to what McCarthy's offense is doing.

That is one weak effort. Next time use your glasses. Here is the quote in the article, from FoxSports:Said on @FOXSportsLive, source pins it at roughly 4-6 weeks for Aaron Rodgers. Fourth week tricky b/c T'giving game is 3.5 wks from injury.

That info was substantiated elsewhere. But what does the author know? He's only a Doctor who specializes in sports injuries. I'm sure Sho Nuff's pontifications are more credible.

 
Ugh. Even if lacy plays (big if) what does this news do to his value? Have been eyeing up this game as a playoff booster. Now might not even play Eddie. Boo hoo.

So you did not read the whole article huh?

Talk about weak...you brought a bleacher report article...one that quoted a bunch of people on twitter who have never been near Rodgers with the injury and you think their speculation somehow means something?

Even your fox sports live post was that of speculation...

My pontifications came from your link...where the medical part of it was actually discussed.

Again...keep up the effort...kind of funny watching you in this thread.

No one cares about what mind of hope he gave you. You could have left that out

It's posts like this that need policing and are ruining the forum

Rodgers himself states it's 6-8 week injury. I trust a guy who has had face to face contact with his doctors and knows more details about this than the idiots on twitter-verse who are throwing numbers out to try and be the "first to report".Edit: forgot the link

Rodgers said 6-8 weeks yesterday. That's the problem. If it was 6-8 weeks all along why did he and the Packers talk about a potential return even as far back as the Thanksgiving game?
 
Realy want to drop him but the nightmare scenario of advancing to the final and having my opponent somehow grabbing and starting him against me (2QB league) is too much to bear, so he stays.

 
Rotoworld:

According to ESPN's Ed Werder, the Packers are pessimistic about Aaron Rogers (collarbone) getting cleared for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

Rodgers is going to practice again Wednesday, but as of last week he was still feeling pain just making simple handoffs. A source tells Werder that with this kind of injury, playing inside of eight weeks is "risky." This Sunday will mark six weeks since Rodgers went down against the Bears. Even the quarterback himself doesn't sound optimistic about this week, saying he hasn't even gotten a new scan on his collarbone yet this week. Matt Flynn is a heavy favorite to start in Dallas Sunday.

It's funny listening to these clowns.

How many of them would be man enough to be out there with a broken collar bone? Hell, how many of them would be man enough to be out there at all.

From Twitter

Ian Rapoport ‏@RapSheet 20m

Aaron Rodgers hasn't been cleared, unlikely it'll come before gametime, per source. Clear Packers don't expect him Sun, likely Flynn again

Sigmund Bloom ‏@SigmundBloom 12m

so you're sayin there's a chance RT @jasonjwilde Aaron Rodgers took some 11-on-11 reps with the first-team offense in practice Wednesday

 
This #### is killing me. I mean he would light the Cowboys up if he played.

It's interesting that the team kept the fact that Rodgers played 11 on 11 on the down low. When's the next scan?

Don't know. This whole thing has been handled very poorly. One thing I'm sure of - he ain't playing this week.
