Even if he DID have a concussion, he’ll be fine for the SB. If it was bad enough to keep him out for the SB he sure as heck wouldn’t have finished the game.

Let’s ask him if he has hemorrhoids. If he says “no”, he must have them.

Under these new rules Goodell has created no QB will get beyond 50 games. All to protect his punk son, Favre.

Goodell must go. I liked him originally, but Roger Goodell. Must. Go.

Why try to make a story when there isn’t one???? Why isn’t there a story about the humping of big ben by mendenhall???? OK…..Rodgers has had some concussion issues earlier in the year……but what kind of issues is there when your own teammate does THAT to his own quarterback????? just sayin…..

If you are going to say this in one article;

“We realize that the process developing a firm opinion based on limited information and then searching for any shred of proof to support that quickly-adopted belief while dismissing or ignoring anything that undermines it has risen to the level of inalienable right for many Americans.” (i.e. article on Jay Cutler controversy)

Then it makes it hard for you to sound like a valid authority to the story you made up in the next article after it. Which just happens to be the subject of the article in this thread. Total speculative crap.

Examples like this is the reason this site remains crap and not real news. The sooner people realize that the news here is the same they can find on Twitter the better it is for every football fan.

Harrison has to get to him first, and Rodgers had a huge day at Pitt last year.

His coach provided a direct acknowledgment that his shoulder was dinged on the td run. After that his accuracy did decline, best example was his near halftime easy out pass that should have been a no sweat 8 yard pick up but instead hit the receiver in the ankle and ricochet for a Bears interception. He was awful throughout the second half, yet all anyone wants to analyze is his post Peppers hit performance. He obviously wasn’t right before the Peppers hit, chase a story that is there, not the one that isn’t, for crying out loud!

For his sake, I truly hope he didn’t have one. He could be facing some potentially serious life-altering consequences if he gets lit up by Harrison or Polamalu.

The NFL media has been spoiled by almost two decades of watching Brett Favre take hit after hit and get up for the next play. Time to move on my dear media. He was a once in a generation freak of a player. He was also a once in a generation a**hole.

He took a shot, bit his tongue, then got up. Peppers will get a 100k fine.

That said on to the game, Steeler fans won’t like my projection, but here it is. On turf, indoors, Packer’s 41, Steelers 21. Rogers and the receivers will go off on the turf, Matthews , Raji, and Jenkins will sack Ben 6 times, or more. Starks over 50 yards. Peprah INT. Harrison will get a 100k fine and Suspension next year for a nasty uncalled for hit on Flynn in garbage time.

Just my Projection. LOL

The only thing wrong with what Rodgers said was that he had to say anything. Not one medical professional has suggested he suffered a concussion. The story was invented by reporter Shawn Doherty who diagnosed him “woozy” … just as Mortensen invented Dick LeBeau’s “better than 50 percent chance” of moving to Arizona, which LeBeau then denied.

It seems we’re in for two weeks of manufactured news events and player/coach denials. Woo-hoo.

I’m inclined to believe Rodgers, but then again, can you really trust the word of a guy who has a concussion?

“”No question, Rodgers was a different player after that hit! Yes bounce right up, but it affected him. He’s tough, no doubt. “”

~~~~~~`

Did you watch the game?

He threw 5 passes after the hit..The hit was around the 11 min mark in the FOURTH

2 were completed, one was a lazer dart slant..

2 were dropped by Quarless..One was on 3rd down that would have been a 1st down

one was just a terrible throw he rushed on 3rd down

So he should have went 4 of 5

He wasnt himself after he dove for the TD..It banged up his shoulder, after that is when he was affected

Another note…Someone that has suffered a concussion..

Could they sit there with all the lights and look fine? Could they recall EVERY play that was asked of him?

I think not

All you haters and ones looking for a story, move along..

actually if you watch the video from Sunday’s game you can see right after the hit. The next play he really looked crossed eyed! Rodgers was wenching look on his face. Wouldn’t you if the “Terminator” himself just decked your ass!!

“Helmets are designed to prevent concussions, I think.”

Actually, they’re not. Helmet tech has evolved very little since the 60′s, when the biggest problem wasn’t concussions (or “getting yer bell rung” as I’m sure they called ‘em back then), but fractured skulls and internal cranial bleeding. They do very well against those problems, but very little against concussions.

Some of the very newest models– including the type Rodgers wears– have some innovations that are supposed to somewhat mitigate against cuncussions, but there’s really very little a football helmet can do to protect against them. A concussion is pretty much the brain getting jostled around inside the skull a bit, and depending on the angle of hit the force doesn’t have to be too great to induce one.

As long as there is football, there will be concussions.

Let’s create a controversy when there isn’t one. The freaking media has nothing else to do. If there isn’t a story then let’s make one up. What a bunch of douche bags.

Urlacher gained my respect during this whole Cutlergate incident….and this coming from a Packer fan.

Packers need a LT in the draft this year. You can’t have too many. I’m not sure if Bulaga is gonna cut it on the left side. Gotta make sure you get a good player there because the next time Peppers hits him like that he may not get up. That was a SHOT!

Steelers Packers should be great. No one is going to question the toughness of these two quarterbacks.

It’s a good thing he didn’t have a concussion otherwise he may not be in the team picture.

He’s going to Dallas, and going to lose the Superbowl.

because if he did suffer another concussion he might not be playing in the BIG GAME according to the NEW NFL.

Give this subject a rest already. It is being perpetuated by persons that WISH he had a concussion…in other words, Packer -Haters. Move on.
