Jordy Nelson has at least 2 fractured ribs

Give me a second, let me go find a **** to give if he plays or not. We didn't have Tyron nor Dez when we mauled them in Lambeau.

We're either going to blow them out again or they're going to beat us by less than a touchdown. I just don't see our defense laying an egg like New York did.

If this dude plays I'd like to know what shots they are giving him and is it legal.

2 broken ribs? 1 I could see maybe, but 2 there has to be the possibility of it puncturing the lung if he takes a shot.

Yes I want a drug test done before and after game if he plays. Because it's illegal. The team knows it and so should the league. But they are the carnation yellow goodie 2 shoes of the nfl.

Makes no difference with or without him honestly. The young receiver taking his place might actually make them slightly better.

He is not playing.

Let him play!! He'll last until Wilcox lays the boom and then it'll be game over

I broke three ribs right where they join the sternum in a motorcycle crash a few years ago. It was NOT a bit fun. I would've rather taken a bullet than try to play football a week after it happened. I thought I was going to die on the spot when I got some peanuts caught in my throat and started coughing. I ended up hugging a pillow on my knees.

He's not playing and if they're dumb enough to play him I would jam him on every snap.

yup and bump the crap out of his ribs.

That was a brutal shot he took. As soon as I seen it on TV I knew it wasn't good. Not to mention I bet it hurt more since it was so cold out.

Hell, life goes on with broken ribs...

Take a shot and get on the field...

Don't people say you can barely breathe with a cracked rib

Not that bad. It's totally terrible,yes, nut not like a kidney stone.

If you can't get past the pain for the divisional round, you better just stock up on pampers and head home...

Pretty sure Nelson makes them better.

Life goes on better not playing with broken ribs and getting further damage.

There's one on every board. No matter what it is, the guy that's gonna say:

"Broken ________? So what? Suck it up, buttercup and GET BACK OUT THERE!"

I've experienced broken ribs on separate occasions - the first time I was dating another guy's GF without knowing it, and sure enough he beat the **** out of me (how classy is kicking someone in the stomach after they're already beat you up?)

Answer, it pretty degenerate,; however that's what fights are...

The second time I suffered broken ribs was while riding my Step-Fathers KLX 300 for the first time. I ran front tire first into an abatement with no possible egress. Unfortunately I was hauling *** at the time, and my bodies inertia racked my abdomen into the handle bars... ...and CRUNCH..

Not good, but come on, it doesn't make you disabled... it hurts pretty continuously, but after a while you just roll w it while it heals...

Pretty sure if I'd take broken ribs over nearly any other bone breaking... I swear, nothing compares to a bad kidney stone though..... nothing

Accordingly, Nelson's kind of a giant ***** if he won't take a needle and play...

There really no reason to sit out. Not like your ribs will detach and fatally puncture vital organs...

Unfortunately, guy seems nice and all, but come on now - step up and play through the pain. **** isn't so painful like everyone whose had a broken collar bone will tell you. "It's not that bad after a week or so...

...but, re fracturing broken ribs is some medieval serious ****. That's the definition of pain...

In conclusion, we're gonna bully those guys all day next week.

I remember back in high school.
There was this girl who broke a rib, she bent down and punctured her lung. She died.

It's serious.

One shot from Wilcox or Heath to the torso and he could be seriously hurt. Depends on how bad he and McCarthy want to win. He won't be 100%, and when he wasn't (100%, like the first 8 or so games) ARod wasn't the same. This is a huge break (pun!) for us. Whether he plays or not, imo.

As an aside, that tweet we all got excited about, I have learned, was speculation from a doctor stating "worse case scenarios."

Rodgers played better against the Giants when Nelson wasn't in the game.

Wuss. Witten would play and catch 8 passes.

Romo finished a game with broken ribs and a collapsed lung, Witten played a week after lacerating his spleen.
