Carr was not the sexy choice but he was free and younger. But goober Woody had to jump into an area he has no idea about. Carr is younger and Rodgers is a dinosaur. Douglas when he met Carr should have not left until they had a deal. I knew the Jets would blow it.
This is a terrible take lol. We will see come February if they made the wrong move. Carr over Rodgers is excepting mediocrity.
Rodgers is 40 years old. This is who you want? The Jets made him look bad in Lambeau field. Let's talk about how long you want him around with 60 million owe to him. Douglas blew it he should have been on Carr day one. When they met he should have not left until they had a deal. Green Bay should have to give up draft picks to take Rodgers off their hands. Now its down to Jimmy G. Beef up the offensive line and roll with. He is free no draft capital to give up.
Nothing ever exciting happens for this team. Rodgers is ancient and you want me to get happy about that? I see nothing positive in Rodgers....nothing.
Crazy take... In the last 3 years - Rodgers has 111 tds, 21 ints (34-15 record) Carr has 74 tds, 27 ints (24-24 record) Carr is an average Qb who has had very few good years. Signing him now would have been about the same thing as when we signed Ryan Fitzpatrick. I doubt he gives you the 1 year Ryan gave the Jets too... Rodgers is an all-time, 1st ballot HOF Qb. With a solid team around him, he can do what Tom Brady did with the Bucs.
I've asked this question before: Who on this offensive line can effectively block for a 40+ year old quarterback?
Probably not. This is a well-documented ailment called Anticipatory SOJ Syndrome. There is no known cure.
Rodgers has had poor O LINE play before, his amazing reading of defenses and shiftiness within the pocket will make the oline better. I’m lookin at you laken Tomlinson!
the Jets made most QB’s look bad until teams found out you can beat this defense utilizing TE’s and RB’s. He was throwing to Allen Lazard and rookie Romeo Doubs. Rodgers with Wilson, Moore is an instant upgrade over what he’s been dealing with recently
Woody needed a Headliner and whether Rodgers likes it or not, he's it. Carr won't bring in the customers like a 1st ballot HOF blah blah blah QB. Make no mistake, this is Tebow II as far as the marketing is concerned. Team ended the season on a 6 game losing streak and then Woody announces a price increase. Shit timing for sure which put Woody in a jam. Carr was never really an option as Rodgers also bails out JD IF somehow his QB style rubs off on Zach Wilson. Sometimes its not good to meet your heroes though..
8-9 last season, lost to Jimmy Garoppolo twice in the playoffs in recent years But he's gonna take us to the Super Bowl and Jimmy Garoppolo, although available and much cheaper, sucks
