    It matters because of FA. They have to plan around what they are doing at QB. It's a big issue. If they wait around forever for Rodgers, that only further hinders what they can do now. The rest of the league Isn't going to wait on this situation to come to fruition. It's a big deal.

    FA starts Wednesday. That’s the only deadline that matters.

    Mr. Rodgers is not a FA.

    Man you guys are like over emotional school girls. No one has any idea what the hold up is, people just throwing shit out there and hoping it sticks.

    FA hasn’t even begun yet.

    Rodgers is not a free agent. Tannahill is not a free agent, Not sure JG is one either. All three require some form of trade if at all. Tampering period applies to free agents. While I hope we sign tomorrow, not sure the deadline is based on nothing more than fan impatience.

    I'm pretty sure what people mean by needing him signed by FA is that if we are still in the dark we cannot act on FA until we know what we got cap and roster wise. Most of the best players will go pretty fast and without knowing where we stand with Rodgers we wont be a player in any dealings. It would be like being held hostage at that point.

    Jimmy is a FA but the bigger point is there’s a HUGE difference between selling other free agents on playing with Rodgers and maybe playing with Jimmy fucking Garoppolo. No matter what, this has to end tomorrow by noon. Or JD needs to be fired.

    If your point about ending tomorrow it’s either yes or no on AR I agree. If your point is it has to end tomorrow with a yes then forget it, JD does not control that.

    It has to be a yes or no. If it’s a no, JD should still be on the hot seat because that’s a failure but that’s far less egregious than screwing up the rest of free agency.

    He has a history of waffling. It’s him.

    Cool story; It’s still the only deadline that matters.

    Just as I said, you like everyone else have no idea what is going on. I hope the truth comes out once it’s finalized.

    Care to elaborate on his history of waffling?

    Very true. But I think FA officially Wednesday no? That day is key.

    Someone is playing chicken with that deadline but I’m not sure who.
    That deadline more important to the Jets than it is for the Packers or Rodgers.

    You seriously need me to show you his history of not knowing if he wants to play or retire? It’s pretty well known at this point

    Fck this guy. This feels like when Rex Ryan and Mike Tannenbaum met with Darrelle Revis in a diner to get rolled. Now you have to ALLOW yourself to get rolled in the first place, but that's only partly the reason why I was done with flake turd Rodgers before they ever even picked up the phone . . . whoever THEY actually are.

    So yeah, fck this guy. More later. WARNING!: this is not an airport story.

    Contemplating retirement after playing 15 seasons in the NFL is not quite the same as waffling.

    As long as it’s preventing at least one party from conducting business its waffling. This has gone on long enough. Make a damn decision and be done with it.

    That’s assuming that Rodgers is the hold, which I think is untrue.
