Aaron Rodgers: Quick Healer, Possible Season Savior

Maybe dude dialed 1-800-FAITH-HEALER.

Whatever Aaron Rodgers did to recover from what was thought to be a season-ending snapped collarbone, just know it was legal.

And just what the Green Bay Packers ordered.

Rodgers has been cleared to save their season.

Green Bay struggled to keep hope alive in Rodgers' absence.

Backup slinger Brett Hundley went 3-4 in the interim. Granted, the victories were against the Bears, Buccaneers in overtime, and last weekend, the Browns in overtime:

OK, it's the Browns, but the Pack didn't have to worry about impressing a Selection Committee.

Believe it or not, Hundley now has more OT victories in the NFL than Rodgers.

Rodgers ran the scout team all last week and looked ready to start.

Green Bay will need him against the 9-4 Carolina Panthers, who looked pretty damn good in their 31-24 conquest of the Vikings.

Of course, their D had better be at the top of their game, too. Former Oregon Duck Jonathan Stewart is wheelin' these days:

What's more, the Vikings and Detroit Lions are up next on their schedule.

The Pack probably needs to run the table -- ie- going 10-6 -- to make the playoffs, so Rodgers has gotta go from injured reserve to mid-season form in record time.
