Jordy Nelson has at least 2 fractured ribs

[Hawkeye19]

We get all 4 CBs healthy and on the field for the 1st time all year-- and they are down their best offensive weapon.

Two points to ease your mind:

1. Jordy Nelson would be a non-factor if he played.

2. But he's not going to play.

It's a given. Receivers need to reach for the ball, this ain't happening. But who cares, the Packers played better after Jordy was knocked out anyway. This is a team game, the Packers have other guys who can catch the ball.

Maybe this was "leaked" with the intention of misleading Dallas' gameplanning. I don't trust injury rumors/reports in the playoffs. Wasn't there talks like Rodgers wasn't going to play us (or maybe it was Seattle) in the 2014 playoffs?

Wish he would give one of those fractured ribs to Rodgers.

Aaron Rodgers disagrees...lol.

That could be.

But boy he looked bad while on the sideline.

Honestly I think that the fissures in the Rodgers Nelson connection was what wasn truly ailing the Pack. Didn't seem to have an impact Sunday but I hope Dallas can exploit his absence.

in the 2nd half the giants quit, but props to the packers for at least making the wide open plays.

Probably a combination of them being worn out and they quit. It was at one point 14-13 in the 2nd half.

So you are saying this is a good thing for Green Bay?

why did they choose this game to be worn out or quit? doesnt make any sense. not disagreeing with u just find it strange that it happened.

He's not playing

No way and if he does it will hurt them, not help them. I've had fractured ribs before, NO THANKS.

 

[unionjack8]

On Packers board they said 3 broken, collapsed lung and spleen laceration. He is not playing, if he does he isn't going to last past the first hit.

First hit? I jam the snot out5 if him with 2 defenders like a gunner on the first play he is in....

Is he CRYING?! There's no crying! There's no crying in football! Well, unless you're Odell Beckham, Jr.

Let him go across the middle!

Yah-- technically AR is their best offensive weapon, but you get what I'm sayin'

It was also a running game (or lack there of). But I was pondering this, too, ACF.

He played badly (for his standards) for a 20 or so game stretch, and a lot of it had to do with no running game, Oline lacking consistency, and, partially, not having Jordy.

I'm hoping a lot of it had to do with Jordy missing time, but I think running game (Mont has been a godsend for them, and Michaels wasn't shabby yesterday), and Oline inconsistency were bigger keys to his down period.

Still, ACF, when Jordy woke up (around week 8), ARod took off. He had good games last year, too, without Jordy. But he wasn't consistent.

Put out a hit on him Godfather
