Usually I do not do a post-game article, but this week I believe it is warranted. The lethargic Packers dropped a 30-21 decision to an appreciative Buccaneer squad. As a Packer fan, that was bad enough, Rodger's injury was the more disturbing news. During this spring's drama, "As the Favre Yearns", one of the major points made about Rodgers was his durability. Sunday he threw his arm/shoulder out throwing a touchdown pass. No defensive hit. No falling down. He just threw a pass. It was a great throw and put the Packers back into a game they were frittering away. Is this guy that delicate? At least Hawk, Jenkins and Collins went out making hits. Of course, as this was transpiring, Favre was busy throwing six TDs against Arizona. The door is now wide open for all the naysayers. The "I told you so"s will be echoing throughout Green Bay. For me the defensive injuries add to the list of non-walking wounded. I assume Green Bay will start looking for a veteran QB, if Rodgers injury is serious. Flynn seemed to be a "deer in the headlights" in his brief stint on Sunday. The next few days could dictate the fate of this young season for the Green and Gold. With a first place schedule, the Packers cal ill afford to go into each game at half-strength. As the Favre soap opera moved on to another venue, the Rodgers dark comedy takes center stage. Stay tuned for Act II…
