Mike McCarthy on Aaron Rodgers: He's Fully Capable of Running

It's a nearly a given that Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will play in Sunday's divisional round playoff game against the Dallas Cowboys despite a calf injury.

The more pertinent question is, will be be mobile? Will he be able to avoid pass rusher? Will he be able to scramble?

"He's fully capable of running," said head coach Mike McCarthy on his weekly appearance on 620 AM WTMJ in Milwaukee on Friday morning. "It's really probably more strength and endurance."

DannyDS, Considering AR is suppose to be injured, The line has held Remarkably Well, which as a rule would bode well for GB. I thought I read in some post that you were a trainer? Last game when AR got injured, he limped into the Locker Room, but when he came out, he wasn't Limping at all. Do you think he got Shot Up? Is this Calf injury one that can be shot up without risking further injury.

I won't talk Gambling with you, but I wish if AR was Healthy, MM would keep it quite. When I made a statement to you about knowing football, You didn't get what I was trying to say. I know you know football. Can they shoot up this injury? & will they?

IMO, We're going to have to get to TR. If we can't win that battle, I think it could be a long day. The over/under is 52 in this game, but I don't think I want to give Dallas 30 points? LVT

DannyDS, Congratulations!!, I don't know who was covering Witten, but you had him getting 70 yards. He got 71, & my SB $$$$ is still alive. I feel pretty good right now. LVT
