It’s not official yet, but it sure sounds like Aaron Rodgers‘ season is over. Packers coach Mike McCarthy tells reporters that the quarterback needs surgery to fix his broken collarbone (Twitter link via Ian Rapoport of NFL.com). The operation almost definitely will rule him out for the rest of the year. 
Rodgers suffered the fracture when he was tackled hard by Vikings linebacker Anthony Barr on Sunday. Rodgers is arguably the best quarterback in the league and it’s fair to wonder if Green Bay can survive without him. Through six weeks of action, Rodgers was among the league’s top-10 in both completion percentage and quarterback rating, and tossed 13 touchdowns against versus just three picks.
Rodgers broke his left collarbone during the 2013 campaign and missed only seven games, but this time around he’ll need surgery since it’s on his throwing side.
The Packers are tied with the Vikings for the best record in the NFC North, but they currently own the tiebreaker.
This was coming but it really sucks
Bummer.
They should really go after Romo. Its the only way they can get to a super bowl unless Rodgers comes back which i wouldn’t rule out.
Interesting idea. I wonder if he’d go for it.
Romo told someone that he’s not leaving his seat. That if he leaves Peyton will take his spot and he’s in the booth for the long term. Now if it was the Cowboys….
