lol collapsed lung and broken ribs ready in a week? yeh right.

Unless you're Romo. Then you only need half a quarter to recover.

This sport doctor gives his opinion and it's probably close to the truth.


Dr. Mark Adickes‏@jocktodoc

Concerns for Jordy Nelson are broken ribs, pneumothorax (collapsed lung) and splenic laceration with blow occurring on his left side.

With bruised rib or non-displaced crack in a single rib he has a chance to play. If more serious probably not.

Good...cart his corpse out there and Wilcox will finish him off in short order.

 

[pugilist]

It is what coaches do. Why provide more information if you don't have to?

Tony was day to day for 4 months last year.

oh no I totally understand from a gamesmanship standpoint, it's what coaches do.. but normally for players that are truly questionable

just seems a little silly to do it in this case due to the nature of Jordy's injuries

 

[canters]

I heard the rib caused some minor lung damage. He ain't playing.

 

[cej757]

He looked like he knew his season was over when he was carted off. Greenbay can down play it all they want but that is a major loss for them. Especially with the Cowboys getting Mo Claiborne back too.

 

[visionary]

Is he crying there? Just looks like a man in a lot of pain.

He knew they were gonna have to face the Cowboys next so it was a combination of crying and pain

 

[dallasfan4lizife]

McCarthy is trying to keep his poker face. No way in hell Jordy plays. And if he does, he'll be out of the game after the first contact.

Beat me to it

He better rub some dirt on it because Tony woulda come back in the game.

Tony FTW

he isnt Tony thats for sure.

 

[Zordon]

Sounds Like Jerry Talk.

More like Garrett talk. Jerry would have spilled the beans.

 

[SacredStar]

So the earlier reports were things that could have been damaged but not necessarily things that were damaged? So it was basically an opinion not factual injuries?

Only guy I ever heard to pull that off was Romo in 2011.
I'm sure there's someone else though.

This game is about how we prepare and execute-- not Rodgers and the Pack.

It's our time. Play our game and we win on Sunday.

 

[LandryFan]

let me get this straight... so Jordy spent the night in the hospital last night?

and will be in rehab (whatever that means) until Friday???

how dumb does McCarthy think we are? 0% chance Jordy is playing, kinda insulting to our intelligence to suggest otherwise

The next game he plays will be in 2018 unless they somehow advance to the SB. He has a chance to play there if they get that far, IMO. That said, they ain't getting past this weekend.

1200+ yards, 14 TD's...yes, significant loss for them.

 

[Direwolf63]

The hit reminded me of when Witt got hit in Oakland and ruptured his spleen. Witt toughed it out. Maybe Nelson will too.

As a point of interest, that hit on Witten was administered by none other than Rolondo McClain.

Didn't Demarcus Ware spend the night in the hospital, and play the next game?
