[QUOTE="JacobInFlorida, post: 531899, member: 5834"] I'm a full supporter of TT's philosophy on financials and team building. I just don't agree on the conservative approach in this situation. I don't think the RG3 comparison applies at all here. The dude was playing on a partially torn ligament on a crappy field. They took a chance and lost and the chance they took was WAY WAY bigger than we would be taking with Rodgers. The rehab and recovery is just way harder and longer and RG3 was inexperienced. Also, the knee is something that is a LOT more susceptible to injury on every single play. We can protect Rodgers in a lot of ways where he won't take shots on his shoulder where as there isn't much you can do about a knee other than throw a brace on it and not let him run. It is all about a calculated risk here and I'll always believe it's worth the risk in this situation. There's nothing that you can tell me that makes the positives for next year outweigh the risk here. I just don't think there's a lot to lose. [/QUOTE]
