Heard this on the radio today and made for a good topic
Injury prone to you is
Injured and can not play
Injured and can play
Injury prone to you is
Injured and can not play
Injured and can play

If you can play through them and not have it affect you play where it hampers the res tof the team, then you are not. AR playing last sunday does not mean he's not injury prone as you can see how it was affecting him the last few drives. It will be interesting to see how he plays this week with missing more practice.

THere is a difference between playing with an injury (say broken thumbs) and playing with an injury that makes you a liability. Playing with an injury is part of the NFL. Its a very physical and demanding game and very few players make it the entire season without a scratch or wound of some kind.
angryguy77 said:Favre was a freak and I don't think anyone in their right mind can expect for that to be repeated. As for AR, I do see this guy as a walking injury waiting to happen. Don't take that as a slam but more of an opinion based on the past. I don't look down on him for it, its just one of those things, but I do see it as a potential pitfall. But I could be wrong and he may not be any worse/better injury wise than the res tof the QB's in the league.

Brett Favre was clearly affected by his thumb injury for an entire season. so he is injury prone?
Name me one game that Aaron Rodgers or Brett Favre have missed or openly hurt the team and i will give you the injury prone label.
you see him as a walking injury because you cant get over a QB who didn't care enough about you to get over some trivial bull... and play for the team that made him. but don't take that as a slam.. but more of an opinion based on your past.
Bottom line. Neither Aaron Rodgers or Brett Favre can justly be considered injury prone. Neither has ever missed starting a game due to injury.
this poll to me is pretty obvious. If injured and can play is still considered "injury prone" then more than 80% of the NFL is injury prone.

I also said I could be wrong about him. I'm not talking in absolutes. This was a loaded poll topic so people can spin the facts to make Rodgers seem normal. I have never heard of a second string qb getting hurt as much as this guy has in the past. We will see and time will tell.
angryguy77 said:OK Im done with this forum. You mods want to control the debat so much that people don't even know what they can and cannot say. I initialy had a friend come on and you guys deleted his origional salary cap topic. He's not comming back. Way to make this thing grow I can see that you guys have your act together. You can site the rules however you want, but you have made this forum into something that just plainly sucks. You should take a cue from Celtics Blog. They allow the people to rip on whatever they want and are not women about it. People were ripping on Rivers during the whole playoffs and they didn't limit the debate to certain threads because they didn't wnat to hear it. And you know what, its a great site to visit and discuss the team. You don't have to whisper your dissent and are not forced to go into other threads to voice your opinion and wonder if you ticked off some moderator because you ripped the team. Just because you don't want to hear something, doesn't mean the rest of us don't. This forum doesn't exist to amuse you clowns, but it is for the fans to discuss current and relevant topics like it or not. But your abuse of power will chase away peopel that are looking to debate the team and have a good time and not just say go tea go.I will find another forum where the mods have a life and can accept different opinons and the where the fans are not such homers that it makes this state look dumb. Mabey you mods should look around the net and see that these types of sites are not so restrctive as you.
Have fun watching you TT and MM team go down in flames. I for one will question the front office because I can think for myself.
