[QUOTE="wizard 87, post: 238171, member: 1244"] Thoughts...I tend to agree : FROM TOM SILVERSTEIN OF THE MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL… According to McCarthy, Rodgers did not suffer any structural damage in his right shoulder during the Packers’ 30-21 defeat to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Sunday at Raymond James Stadium. But his shoulder remains sore and it will be at least Wednesday before his status for this week becomes clear. Depending on Rodgers’ progress, McCarthy and general manager Ted Thompson might be forced to make a decision on whether to sit Rodgers for a home game against the Falcons in the hopes that he would be available for a pair of difficult games to follow: at Seattle and at home against Indianapolis. “I think Wednesday’s practice will be a pretty good indicator for us,” McCarthy said. “It’s just something we’ll have to continue to rehab and see where we are Wednesday.” Thompson said there were no plans to sign another quarterback this week, meaning McCarthy and his staff will prepare rookie Matt Flynn for action just in case Rodgers can’t play. Thompson, when asked whether there were any indications his quarterback could be out for an extended period of time, didn’t rule it out. “They’re still trying to make sure what is the right decision for us and for Aaron,” Thompson said. “For everybody.” I don’t get it. I don’t understand how Packers GM Ted Thompson can be so stubborn and not bring in a veteran quarterback. Even Joey Harrington would be better than what they have right now for backups. It is one thing to be careful about taking risks, but it is an entirely other thing to be so close-minded and stubborn. This is not about Brett Favre, this is about giving all those veteran players and their coaches an opportunity to win this year.
