[QUOTE="Starr To Dowler, post: 744071, member: 12707"] Yeah, it's ironic that as many issues and questions as there are about the offensive line, this injury was completely out of their hands. No Packer blocker was even in the same zip code. The closest he came to a lineman was 7 yards. Mostly it's just one of those things that happen in a football game, but if there was ever any way to prevent this, it would have been Rodgers dumping the ball a second earlier. He was looking right at the guy; he knew he was coming full speed and unimpeded, and that he was going to take a shot. I'm not saying it was a stupid play by Rodgers, because I'm sure that in that moment it just looked like any one of a dozen routine hurries he sees in any given game - I'm just saying that maybe he could have been just a little bit smarter. Dont get me wrong; I love that Rodgers is so tough. But he needs to understand that at age 33 he's enterering a stage of his career where every year it's a little more important to play smart rather than tough. If one of the outcomes of this is that he comes away a little more shy about taking a shot to buy an extra second or two, that'll be a good thing. At his age, he needs to start thinking about extending his career and maybe not quite so much about extending every play. [/QUOTE]
