So you restructure, just like every other freaking team in the NFL. The dude took less money so we could sign his buddies; you think he's gonna hold up the team for cash so he ends his career at 4-13? "He's not a SB QB" <---- We heard the same shit about Favre when we dumped him ... then he took a dogshit Vikings team to the NFC championship the next year.
Watching everyone have to pretend that Tyrod Taylor was the "smart move" all season next year is going to be fun. And miserable.
Yes. At the bare minimum, he's the best chance a rookie QB we draft will ever have of learning how to be an NFL QB.
BREAKING: The #Jets informed Aaron Rodgers in a meeting last week that they will be moving on from him, per @JayGlazer His time with the Jets is over. https://x.com/MySportsUpdate/status/1888659744363086058
The fanbase didn't turn on Rodgers because of the media. The fanbase turned on him because the primary 2024 failure point of not putting a confident offensive mind in that coaching room ultimately does fall squarely on Rodgers shoulders, and that is something that happened to an overwhelming amount of applause from that said fanbase. Which in hindsight likely makes a majority of said fanbase look/feel pretty foolish for buying in, and that will always bring out the hate and deflection daggers That said....moving on from Rodgers at this point kinda feels like firing Saleh did imo. More something being done to make people *feel* better and vindicated in their stake burning then something that will actually leave this franchise in a better spot. At least if you were taking a lot of what Rodgers has been saying lately as being completely open to any changes that get him 1 last crack at it here. A recently humbled Rodgers supported by confident offensive coaching is still an intriguing possibility to me. It was always an intriguing possibility. Certainly more intriguing to me then what the potential down the road cap savings might actually amount to at the expense of downgrading the on field product in the short term. But i also strongly suspect we that we probably just hired an OC because he was good at getting Ben Johnson's coffee, and as such might have effectively punted the next couple of years away regardless. So it's still whatever I guess, and I'm not exactly in a great head space with this team atm over that.
I turned on him when he threw the interception to lose the game and blamed it on Mike Williams, I was encouraged for a while, longer than I should’ve been
We can win five games next season with someone behind center who isn’t a complete fuckface douchebag. As a fan, I’m encouraged by the prospect.
He ran the wrong route but Rodgers threw a dog shit pass that would’ve been picked even if he ran the right route. Two things can be true at the same time.
Imagine skipping mini camp then publicly blaming a teammate for not being on the same page as you. What a dick
I just don't think he's right for where this team is at this year. What's their new OC supposed to do, cater his offensive scheme to Rodgers for one year then change everything up to what he wants to do when he goes? It just doesn't make sense IMO. Plus the financials.
1st good news I heard offseason , time to start cutting ties with a lot of Joe d”s mistakes, this might suck for 2025 but time to look foward to 2026 and start clearing cap space and save that 63 million. Hopefully kinlaw his butt buddy is next
There's an alternate reality where the Jets beat the Steelers in the AFCC and go on keep Rodgers from winning his only Super Bowl. The Packers had beaten the Jets 9-0 that season on the strength of 3 field goals and a truck load of bullshit flags. Rodgers couldn't score against Rex's defense.
This is what I'm talking about! Rip the band-aid off! Get Taylor, Travis and a VERY LOW round draft pick in camp and let them ball out!
