[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 531854"] First of all, the originally quoted 4-6 weeks recovery time might be adequate for you or I going to work at a desk. For an NFL player engaged in repeated high impact collisions, I have a lot of trouble seeing any bone getting to 100% (literally, not just saying it's so) in that time period. The potential reward has to be sufficient to compensate for the risk. If Rodgers is tackled on that shoulder again and incurrs a re-injury worse than the original, management is screwed, we're all screwed. If the words "nerve damage" come into the discussion, as they have with some of our other broken collarbones in recent years, then we have a very, very serious problem. If we're playing Chicago for the Division, that might qualify as a risk worth taking. Or maybe not. The risk/reward calculation is re-calibrated each Wednesday and Friday. It's not like there's some secret, hidden plan. Not everything is known when you want to know it. [/QUOTE]
