It wasn't dirty, agreed. He definitely could've held up, but why pass up a QB hit when you can get one?

Exactly. It's still football and Rodgers was out of the pocket. Wasn't even close to being dirty.

No chance we make the playoffs without Rodgers 

I wouldn't say no chance but Hundley has zero chance to be successful with the current state of our o-line. Get them healthy and get Hundley reps in practice and we'll see.

thank you, the hit was clean. just contact football.

Terry Bradshaw stated it clearly that Rodgers added to the chance of injury by extending his arm and making contact with it to the ground first, instead of tucking it in close to his body. that's 450+ pounds of mass delivering up the arm, looking for the weakest point.

bones heal. he'll be back and be fine.

Certainly not a dirty hit but absolutely an illegal one (and a missed call).

This exactly situation is why the 'can't drive a QB into the ground and land on him' rule is in place. This will be the video in the NFL rulebook going forward. NFL doesn't want this for a reason and this is why the rule is in place.

Now the NFC is wide open. Hope to see KC take it this year.

RIP 2017 Packers. Looks like the lions division to lose until Rodgers comes back in week 16-17 and somehow wins the NFC north because packers.

i dunno, the demolished GB team, banged-up MIN team and DET are all pretty equal. DET just gave up 52 points today...North is now wide-open.

As a Bears fan I vehemently root against him twice a year, but hate hearing he was inured. Hope for a quick recovery with no lingering issues. Maybe he can be back for playoffs if Hundley can hold down the fort.
