Let's brace for that Aaron Rogers character.

Adam Hogue, Greg Braggs, Brian Baldinger on the way, and apparently so is Aaron Rogers,

0:45.7

even though I guess Mike Tomlin's going to play this coy for the rest of the week and not commit,

0:49.8

but it sure sounds like he's going to be playing on Sunday.

0:52.8

We'll see.

0:53.9

We'll see. It wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't, and he's just to be playing on Sunday. We'll see. We'll see.

0:54.5

It wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't, and he's just, you know, going to keep the bears on their toes all week. Ooh, the old keep the bears on the toilet. I mean, Rogers always wants to be in, you know, the media spotlight and the headline of the story. So Willie or won't he play? I still think it's 50-50. The update today, for those that might not have heard, is that he does not need surgery

1:14.2

on that wrist.

1:15.2

It's just a matter of, like, you know, wrapping it up in a way where he can avoid further

1:20.7

injury.

1:21.3

And Tomlin also said the pain tolerance really won't be an issue.

1:24.0

So I think it really just comes down to do they think he can, you know,

1:28.9

hurt it more and which would then risk the rest of their season because they are still in the

1:34.5

mix of. I'm sure Brian Baldinger played through broken risks, no problem. That's true.

1:39.6

What, why don't, on that, why don't we bring in the legend, our friend, our pal, our NFL guru from the NFL network and everywhere else. You see him everywhere. Of course, right here on CHO. Baldi, thank you for making time, as always. My friend, good to see you. Yeah, thank you. Good with you guys, man. It's been a while. Yeah, good to see you, Baldy. Thank you. Why don't you just tell us, Baldy, you know, Aaron's playing, right? We don't have to think about this all week long. He's going to, he's going to lose out on a final opportunity to play the Bears at Soldier Field. That is not that dude's ego. He's playing. Yeah, yeah. He owns the bears. I don't know. I mean, I, you know, I mean, there's a lot of football to be played. I don't know, you know, if it's a fracture. I mean, I don't know if it's a spraying, a fracture. I'm sure that if he can put a soft cast on it and just protect it, that he'll definitely play.

2:35.8

But, you know, he has a hard time protecting himself right now, just with his movement
