I don't see Nelson playing anymore this season. The illegal hit he took was really nasty.
The way he was hanging his head as they carted him off makes me feel even more so that he's done.
He was a major part of the O. Rodgers always looked for him. Even though he didn't have the speed he used to, he caught plenty of TD's this year, and was dependable.
I hope they fine the guy that hit him. BIG time.

NYG has the best secondary out of all the teams left in the post-season, and we dropped 38 on them without Jordy Nelson.

It's a blow, but this shouldn't be an excuse if we do get knocked out of the playoffs. Aside of a head-scratcher on 4th down, McCarthy has been excellent with the playsheet.

I'm not picking on you, blueleopard. It's just that so many times on this board I have seen posters blast Mike McCarthy for being too conservative.
Yes, I didn't think they should have gone for it there either. But I can't knock the coach for keeping his foot on the gas against the Giants.

There’s only 4 weeks left so not enough time to get another WR up to speed, so it’ll have to be a guy who’s been here. Not sure Jordy’s done. Wentz had a hairline fracture and he was playing in 4 weeks. Rivers had bruised ribs with cartilage damage and didn’t miss a game.

McCarthy said Jordy will not practice until Saturday, though he spent night in hospital. WOW, this is good news!!! BUT, we know Mike’s injury reports can’t be trusted, he could be just keepin’ Dallas in the dark. Pennell being cut helps with putting a 7th WR [or 8th if we count Monty] on roster. To replace Jordy, here’s the shortlist of options:

• We got Janis and Davis [But, both were leaped over by Geronimo!]
• Monty could move back to WR, though I can hear WPR arguing you cant have a guy with a running back body just move to WR.
• Abby-the dork signed with Lions today. Surely his agent called GB before he did that and this might mean they think Jordy has a chance to play Sun.
• Jones Jones was in camp with Chargers and after being cut before week 1 said he wanted to stay in bay area where he lives and play for SF. He said it’s a waiting game. If he has stayed in shape over the last 4 months, he’s an option.
• Myles White-Spent parts of 2015 on Giants roster and was in camp with them in 2016 and Giants run a similar offense to ours. He spent last 6 weeks month of season on Bucs prac sqd, so he is another strong choice.
• Can we do a waiver deal with AZ, for Jeremy Ross?
• I think he’s done, don’t want him, but I’ll put him on list: Greg Jennings.
• Convert Waters back to WR [LOL-let’s really mess with his head]
• There’s 2 PS guys; they haven’t been here that long and missed camp, so I can’t see this.
• Andre “Bad Moon” Rison is not even 50 yet, and he is plug and play. I know Wolf would sign him, if he were our GM!

Makes you wonder how much of an injury he actually has. Is saying they won't know until Saturday just a ploy to make Dallas plan for him or is he really not injured as bad as everybody thinks making Dallas also try and figure out what the packers would do without Jordy.. Could he just have bruised ribs where there is no increased risk of injury and all he will need is a painkiller shot before the game.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

All this handwringing over Jordy Nelson is so unnecessary. We have Aaron Ripkowski, guys. Line him out wide like we did against the Giants and let him fly. If he doesn't finish the day with 120 yards and three touchdowns, I'll eat my hat. Or I would if I wore hats. [giddity]

You can't lose a guy like him and not hurt. The ONLY thing that helps is: that it happened last week, and we had time to prepare for him not being there.
Plus having Randall "Corn" Cobb and Davante "Gomez" Adams helps a lot.

Aaron was physically present, but he was locked into sandlot mode.

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
