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.

    • Although, I will admit there is a big caveat to this game. Packers coming off an emotionally big game against Rodgers on the road in Primetime and a MNF matchup with the Eagles the following week, it is a prime opportunity for a let down game with them looking ahead. Which if it's the case, I think we still lose, but only something like 24-21.
    • We lose in a non competitive game 38-20. Bryce doesn't look much better than Dalton did and all the people this week saying "see we told you he's great, look how bad this team is without Bryce" blame it on the OL injuries and/or his ankle and already start laying the groundwork for that being why he is still one of the worst starting QB's the rest of the season and why he deserves another year, if not even an outright extension. And no, that's not what I'm rooting for, just what I objectively think will happen, just as I've been saying for a month would happen once we got past the cupcake portion of the schedule.
    • Miami will be their first real test. Even a close loss and I would be content with that at this point. Brandon Miller is probably gonna be out a few weeks with a partial shoulder dislocation. With that being said, the rookies are really impressing me.
