Isn’t it week 13?
Isn’t it week 13?
Rodgers is now the Thanksgiving turkey with the built in thermometer, and it just popped out.
Time to take him out of the oven. He’s finished.
It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!
Jets coach was asked if he's contemplating making a change at QB. "Not as of today". Which might just mean he knows it's not his decision.

I was looking into doing the Survival game thing this past week. Unfortunately I didn't get picks in on time. I thought I was going to get Tampa/Carolina wrong, but Tampa found a way to win. Anywho, as I was assessing the Seattle-New Jersey game, I noticed that all five Jets lineman were on the injury report as questionable or doubtful. And these are the guys who weren't all that great begin with. That looked like a cluster, so I picked Seattle. Still, New Jersey put up a fight and like 5-6 other losses, almost won. Rodgers is throwing shorter, faster, and trying to get runs going, but it's a slog (only three QBs in the top 30 have a shorter pocket time - 2.3 sec). O-line matters, just ask SF (Williams) and the Vikings (resurrected Sam Darnold likes the time he has to throw - longest pocket time of any QB at 2.7sec average). Not to mention competent coaching. Rodgers has more yards than Love, but has almost no completions over 20 yards.

I won’t be shocked if he doesn’t finish the season.
But some poster here is convinced he can play to 45 like Tawm Braydee did! lol
Rodgers turned 41 today and sure looks finished. Hasn't cracked 300 yards in 3 years and is struggling to crack 250 with Adams and Wilson and Hall at skill positions.
QBs get washed up because their legs go before their arms do - can't move well in the pocket or outrun those 23 year olds trying to kill you anymore.
The word is that the Jets don't want Rodgers back, even if he says he wants to be back. My guess is at the end of the season he makes some mysterious comments about his future, but with a new GM and HC coming in you can bet they will want to start over.
They went from Super Bowl aspirations to out of the playoffs by week 13, and they didn't have 49er bad injury luck as an excuse.
Watch Mark Davis throw money at Rodgers to play (poorly) for LV, maybe they can give back the pick to the Jets and take Adams too lol
Honestly, there aren't many good landing spots for Rodgers and I have to think most GMs (and sane owners) aren't going to want that mess.
In a QB-plagued league, Butte is still better than 80% of the bums out there. Every HOFmer has a down year. Butte’s just happens to be this year.
Logic indicates that Butte will end up playing for the Queens, Dog Farts (Browns), Lumpensteelers, Tyrants (Titans), Fishmongers (Seafucks), or should he opt for a prolonged “darkness” retreat til injuries inevitably strike, a Super Bowl contender.
If Butte is truthful about his ego death, he’ll sign with the Packers to backup the Lovemaker. I bet Packers could get a 2nd rounder for Good Willis Hunting.

He hasn't had an up year since 2021. Every HOFer also ages out.
Fire Murphy, Gute, MLF, Barry, Senavich, etc!
Came here to say this. The numbers don't lie. He's done. (Thankful for the Lombardi run, though. He was amazing in his heyday. But then....)
He had two MVP seasons with MLF, then decided he wanted to run an antiquated no-motion, run the clock to 0, McCarthy offense that doesn't work anymore. His throws are either 3 yards behind or past the LOS, it's garbage. But he knows better than everyone else though, so whatever. Any team lining up to sign a 41 year old QB is asking for trouble and a future top 10 draft pick.
As for who made the biggest mistake (NYJ, CLE, or NYG), I'd go with CLE. They gave up a lot of draft capital AND then gave a sex pest a fully guaranteed contract while litigation was ongoing. His injury history also wasn't great. Just a bad move all the way around, handicapped and handcuffed that team for a few seasons.
Next I'd say the Jets - they gave up a couple picks to get Rodgers and then doubled down by signing his buddies and trading for Adams. They'll take some cap hits to get under that contract.
The Jones contract was bad at the time it was offered, at least they didn't give up any picks to sign him. That they chose him over Saquon or McKinney is kind of hilarious and sad. I can't help think the owners and GMs are in such a media fishbowl in NYC that it impacts their decisions.
Trading valuable picks for the privilege to sign a player to a lucrative contract is generally bad process. QBs contracts are bonkers also, but this is the game the NFL wants -- if you have a QB, you have to pay them, otherwise you overpay for a bad one until you find a good one.
Poor Aron is just taking hits from all sides lately. Never thought there would be one of Rodgers chicks to dislike more than Yoko Munn…
