So Griffin will be the QB next year ? How much rehabbing has he done since 2009 ?So in the last 5-6 seasons he has had 3 season ending injury's and yes this ankle is a season ender ,why take the chance ?

QB durability can change though. I remember there was a time where Aaron Rodgers made the likes of Sam Bradford and RG3 look like Cal Ripken Jr by comparison.

New England Patriots vs. Green Bay Packers - Box Score - November 19, 2006 - ESPN

On November 19, 2006 Rodgers broke his left foot while playing against the New England Patriots in a 0-35 defeat at home, filling in for an injured Brett Favre, and Rodgers missed the remainder of the 2006 season

Keep in mind Favre started that game and played long enough to attempt 15 passes.

Before Rodgers became the starter he was actually injured more often than Favre.

From 2008: NFL Forum :: - Aaron Rodgers Injury Prone?

What does everyone say AR is injury prone?

Patriots Game: Freak play when some dude stepped on his foot. Still played the rest of the game with a broken foot. Keep in mind, it was against the NFL's best and most confusing defense for young QBs. It was also his R season.

Practice: M3 (btw, why is he called M3 I don't get it) said that he probably could have played the next week, but didn't want to risk any further injury. It was also on the last play of practice, a little bit of a freak injury.

Thoughts?

Don't forget his screwed up knee in high school, which he screwed up again twice more in college, and eventually required surgery.
