    Liked everything about your Post except having him play

    Does he owe us?? Sure . But asking an old QB to try throw with no protection is like cruelty to animals ...I just cant see a HOFamer crippled

    This is the only thing I feel we really have to (potentially) look forward to this season. I would love nothing more to see Rodgers come back, use Washington and Cleveland as something of a warmup, and then absolutely unload on the Patriots, dropping an absurd number of points on them and sending Bill Belichik out in New England with an embarrassing loss to the team he hates the most.

    We will need to disagree on this. I mean Rodgers took the biggest pay cut in the history of sports to come here. He got hurt behind Duane Brown at LT. He is doing everything he can to come back ASAP. And people are still shitting on this guy. I don't get it. We had garbage after garbage of QBs here really since Vinny's single All Pro year. One true All Pro season from all the QB in decades. We have to see what Rodgers can bring next year, this is not even a question. Again, we can draft a QB and ruin him a little later. We have a chance now to win with a really good QB, as long as we can keep him healthy and build a good OLine. that should the plan next year.

    As far as all other guys you mentioned Rodgers brought, I want to address Hack first. He came before Rodgers. Yes, I am sure JD was thinking that it might help get Rodgers, but it is not the other way. Rodgers is not responsible for someone who was brought in before he could even talk to the Jets. All other guys you mentioned are end of the bench players, and some of them could be Hack, not Rodgers. Except Lazard: he is the only guy was brought in for a major role. As I already shown before, it does look like Rodgers mandated him, but recommended him. I see nothing wrong with this recommendation given how Lazard performed with Rodgers, and it is up to JD to make these decisions.

    There is just so much shit given to Rodgers for no good reason at all. The guy gave everything to us, he was all in. He does not deserve the shit that JD deserves. And JD failed Rodgers too. Rodgers has not failed the Jets, he just got hurt when JD rolled Duane at LT. And we need to see what he can do next year, because in the last several decades we haven't seen truly great QB play and this is our chance.

    Adam Schefter reporting that Rodgers "may" practice this week.

    As long as he can find time for McAfee I guess that's good.

    I really hate the “ OLINE” comments. Go on every teams forum and you will see a “ they have to upgrade the OLINE”. Every team has holes on the line.

    Great teams scheme around this and with a smart QB who can get rid of the ball quick helps.

    Joe Burrow went to a SB with a horrible O-line.

    “ cant put him out their with that OLINE” give me a break.

    And now Burrow's out for the season, having suffered his second season-ending injury in four years. He's a first ballot Hall of Fame talent, but the Bengals O-line might end up Andrew Lucking him.

    His season ending hand injury had nothing to do with the OLine, what are you talking about

    I think he’s out because he hurt his wrist on a tackle and now needs surgery. He missed his first season I think on an ACL

    His OL has got him hurt twice now with season ending injuries is what the point was.

    I haven’t watched all the Bengals games all that closely but I think that’s the situation

    Ok, then they should never play him again until they fix the o line. Like 25 other teams. They can never get hit

    that was sarcasm - every QB is going to get hit -
    his hand injury was a freaky injury that might even have been hurt before the play ( see the allegations about his wrist wrap pre game)

    and FYI their RT Jonah Williams is a FA and everyone on this board will be pounding the table and cry to sign him so ‍♂️
