Hit On Aron Rodgers from his point of view..

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said the hardest hit he has taken in football came last season when the Carolina Panthers played the Packers on Nov. 30 at Lambeau Field.

"I don't even know who it was," Rodgers told The Sporting News. "It was one of Carolina's linebackers last year. He hit me in the chest on a pass. A five-step quick pass. As I threw it, he got his helmet up underneath my arm. I couldn't protect myself quickly enough. He drove me into the ground. My sternum was sore for five weeks after that. It hurt to throw; it hurt to go to sleep. It wasn't broken. It hurt like hell, though."

I don't think he was crying about anything. I'm sure he was just asked about his hardest hit, and just decided to tell about it. I'd rather him tell it like it is and give credit to the guy who hit him than to act like some cowboy and say that no hit has ever hurt him.

I met Rodgers a few weeks ago at a wedding and I actually got to hang out with him for most of the night. Really cool guy.

Agree 100%. I believe this was originally taken from a TSN Q & A I read in the mag recently. If that is the case, he was asked the Q and he A ed..no more.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
