It was clear where Rodgers was going. The Jets were the only team interested, which is why there was all the debate over who had "leverage".
Joemailman 06-03-2024, 10:09 AMYou still can't follow someone who hasn't gone yet. Besides, Rodgers' desire was only a factor. GB and another trade partner could have convinced him
Patler 06-03-2024, 09:38 AMI think by March 17 it was pretty clear where Rodgers was going. Rodgers announced on March 15 his desire was to play for the Jets.

Joemailman 06-03-2024, 08:28 AMAbout former Packer Alan Lazard, and the Jets' predicament with his contract:
To "follow" his qb to NY? Really?
I guess I've fallen into the trap of drinking the extreme homerism Kool Aide like many in here after watching him play about a really good "half
Bretsky 06-03-2024, 03:11 AMThe way I see players paid, it does not seem to matter where in the hierarchy of greatness a guy is. He just gets paid based on how recently his contract

Joemailman 06-02-2024, 11:49 PMYou'd really prefer Jordan Love over Josh Allen? That's bananas IMO. Love has done it once. Allen has shown consistency over a long period of time.
call_me_ishmael 06-02-2024, 11:22 PMIf you're talking about guaranteed money, I would take Love over Burrow because of Burrow's injury history. I think Love is as good as Herbert or Stroud.
Joemailman 06-02-2024, 03:36 PMIt's idiotic to say Love over Burrow at this point.
Has Love shown more than Stroud ?
Has Love shown more than Herbert
Awesome post, Patler.
I get a kick out of how most people argue that those guys couldn’t play today. Have human beings changed so

smuggler 06-02-2024, 10:27 AMYes and no. Many (most) of those older players, playing as they did then, if inserted into todays game, would get destroyed. Some (e.g. Jim Brown, Willie
Patler 06-02-2024, 09:57 AMThat's my feeling, too; and I was a fan during the Lombardi era. Guys played with their "trick" knees and shoulders, and suited up so long
Patler 06-02-2024, 09:12 AMThose old players would get destroyed in today’s game lmao. Stupid comparison. I’m sure Tex’s comparison as an overweight retiree occasionally beating
call_me_ishmael 06-02-2024, 08:48 AMFirst, the game was entirely different back then so who cares how the "injury" rates compare. Half the time those guys just went out and played
bobblehead 06-02-2024, 08:20 AMYou said there were far less games missed for injuries back then. That's false, unless you have the stats to prove it. I'll wait

Do you believe Lazard ends up taking all that money from the Jets irrespective of Rodgers direct involvement brokering the deal?
