Looks like he was "immunized" against torn achilles.

Full cleats on turf? Is that what it was?

Amazing how this injury takes down so many athlete late in career just planting like they have done a million times. Never forget Bernie Kosar dropping back, planting to throw, ruptured Achilles. Same age.
All these Achilles injuries lately. Must be because of the jab. Oh wait…
Bernie for sure.

Well that seems like possibly the end of his career as an effective QB.
I don't think it's the end of his career as an "effective" QB - I think it is and should be the end of his NFL career.
Take the emotion out of this - he's 39 turning 40 in December. By the time he can even play again he's either going to be 41 or on the cusp of turning 41. When you look at the play on which this happened it wasn't an overly crazy one - it was a play and movement that you should expect to make without snapping your achilles tendon.
Realistically this is just his body saying "nope" even if his mind is still motivated. He's been one of the best QB's we have ever seen - but I think that should be the last we will ever see of him on an NFL football field.

Rodgers is much better than Manning.
You need to put Manning's record into context. He played in a historically weak division, the AFC South, which essentially had THREE expansion teams -- the Houston Texans, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Tennessee Titans. These teams mostly sucked during his career. His record against the rest of the NFL, not nearly so good. He may have the most 1-and-dones in playoff history.
During his Super Bowl run with the Colts, he threw more picks than TDs during the playoffs. Rescued by a stout defense, and the Bears QB was drunk during the Super Bowl.
The strong Denver defense carried him to his last title. He could barely throw.
Manning is still a top 20 QB, but he is not as good as his stats showed.
I think most would disagree. He was the smartest, somewhat revolutionized the position. He had a "stout" defense all those years? Really? They averaged around 16th in NFL. The 4 years he had a top notch D he did win the SB-twice. He had the misfortune of coming up with Brady and the Dynasty as well. Peyt had it over virtually every QB ever for stats, even Tom, but usually without the D (or RB) to get them over to SBs. Brady had much better Defense over the long haul statistically and had 4x as many first team all-pros on D.
Pats 11-5 without Tom
Colts 2-14 without Peyt.
Manning 3-2 over Brady in the playoffs!
Peyt has 5 coaches, 4 superbowls with 4 diff head coaches (gary kubiak and jim caldwell anyone?) --never been done. Won SB with 2 diff teams, never been done until Tom with that all star team in TB. He seems to be the constant for winning. Less all pros, and an abysmal running game most of the time. He has some boogers in there, but who doesnt?
Its hard to win as many as Tom, a lot has to go right and Brady has set the bar too high for anyone to compare for championships. He is the Goat, Manning a solid top 3 or 4.

I'd agree with that although his stats were assisted by playing half his games in a dome, the (lack of) competition in his division and 2 HOF receivers he was very good at reading defenses, adjusting plays and very accurate with the ball.

I live in Indianapolis and I watched his entire career.
Too many times he came up empty in the playoffs. Teams with gaudy records that lost -- at home -- in the first round of the playoffs.
The year the Colts won the Superbowl his playoff run had only 3 touchdowns to _7_ interceptions. He was absolutely rescued after playing terribly.
The best quarterbacks ELEVATE in the playoffs, not regress. That's why, despite his great in-season numbers, I simply don't consider him in the top-ten.
I won't even get into the sexual assaults, and the shipping of HGH to his home, albeit in his wife's name. All this gets excused because of his aww-shucks personality.
Look at how tall his forehead grew. Dude was/is a total doper.

Honestly I'm fine with NFL players doping. It's cruel not to let contact athletes use PEDs

Triggered.
Fact. NFL owners are billionaires.
Fact. NFL owners take most of the money. Largely (but not solely) via the ever increasing value of their teams
Fact. Nobody pays a dime to see the owners. The owners do not put their health at risk.
Fact. Fans pay to watch very talented players who worked very hard to develop their skills and who are putting their health at risk every play

Well at the very least we know that Karen Rodgers is a sociopath. But they have plenty of company here.

While I'm proud of you for learning a new word, you're misunderstanding me.
You see, Aaron Rodgers, is an anti-science, anti-medicine jackass. It is the height of irony that now of course he's going to be relying on all of the best medical science to heal his achilles, since that's not exactly something you can magically heal with wilderness retreats, ayahuasca, Ivermectin, or whatever dolphin urine he was spraying on himself to "immunize" himself against COVID while lying to everyone and selfishly putting his entire team's season at risk.
So, again, screw him. He deserves zero sympathy.
