Aaron Rodgers

I think you're right.

I get the feeling that is not the way he wants to go out withering away in Jets green, especially after how fired up he was to play this season. Maybe he ends up our starter next season following that Favre script..?

Maybe. Depends how big his ego is. He likes doing things other than football and the rehab will be a bear. 

K'aaron is out.  Torn Achilles.

Good news for us is that Packers now do not get the Jets #1 pick next year.

seriously?  It was conditional on him playing more than 4 snaps?  

Kinda funny reading this in hindsight.

One former GB quarterback was enough

I've started reading the Bee and its pretty good. I enjoy The Onion and this is very similar, with clever wit and jabs the hardcore Left when its deserved like Onion does the hardcore Right. 

Suddenly Zack Wilson is popular with the ladies again.

Rodgers is 39 years old today.  He would be 40 next season.  An Achilles tendon injury is hard enough for a young person to come back from. 

I remember one of our regional college football RBs (he had won the state HS 100 meter dash in HS), who came back his senior season the year after he blew his Achilles out.  Whereas he previously had speed, power and agility, he was reduced to a one-dimensional RB without the speed.   And he was probably 21 or 22 years old when this happened.

Brian O'Neil is 12 years younger than Rodgers.  Yes, he came back this year.  I do not know the severity of either Achilles injury.

One of the things that makes Rodgers so good historically has been his nimbleness and flexibility to turn a broken play into something using his exceptional mobility.  I've seen him do it too many times...slippery bastard (!)

I would be shocked, surprised, amazed (keep going, thesaurus...), if he came back next year at age 40 in a compromised situation.
