OFFICIAL AARON RODGERS THE LIVING LEGEND THREAD

[Fritz]

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.

Which franchise is sadder: The Jest or the Brownies? Or the Gints?

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.

Isn’t it week 13?

Posting here because I'm not industrious enough to start a Week 14 thread:

I've always wanted to say that I believe Pick-6s are less about a quarterback's quality of play and more dependent on personnel and playcall. The only thing I think is more on the QB's shoulders is to realize in that formation, there's no "cover 2" help from running back or flankers if he tries to force a throw -- so don't try to force a dang throw in a non-critical drive.

Rodgers had an empty backfield and 3 or 4 spread-out receivers. Even nimrods like me know that's going to be a short throw that's begging to be jumped. There was only one offensive player who had a chance of tackling the DB before he zoomed past the offensive line. But because 10 guys were nowhere near the dude with a head start in the other direction, Aaron Rodgers is an even worse quarterback than if someone tackled the DB.

I can't watch the Jets. I'm not the guy who slows down to see the wreck on the side of the road since I was 17. Driving down 29 I slowed like every rubber necking idiot to see the commotion. A guy (assuming it was a guy) on a motorcycle had taken an atrocious spill. He was a busted up bloody mess. Its been a lot of years, but that image is still stained into my brain. Now I keep my eyes forward and drive on by without being curious. I won't be catching many Jets games this year.

If Love goes on to win a Super Bowl and has a first ballot hall of fame career, I call dibs on starting his living legend thread in ~2034!

While Rodgers was a prick he will always be a Packers champion. Just like Favre he has a memorial here at PR.

Here you go Guiness. AARon central.

Touché. I should have looked beyond the first page of threads

Rodgers career earnngs are well north of $300M, approaching $400M. He's a shell of the QB he was 10 years ago, but that's not exactly a shocker. It's hard to hang up the cleats, I think it may take a bad injury or ugly half season to do it. It's not far off. Hes taken some vicious hits (by today's standards) behind that OL. Meanwhile, GB's OL has given up 8 sacks in 6 games.

Yeah, the press conference after was surprising, I guess I'd gotten used to QBs taking responsibility for picks or bad plays, not blaming your teammates. Do not miss that circus. The NY media much eat that up.

How many tens of millions $ does it take to outweigh the prospect of some vague distant future potential problem? I empathize a helluva lot more with the risk takers.

Sandy Koufax famously retired at age 31 after going 27 - 9 in his final season, with a 1.73 ERA. He had traumatic arthritis, which meant he could have a permanent disability down the road - so he left the game.

I wish some of these older QB's would follow his lead. For every Tom Brady, there are a bunch of Rodgerses and Rothlisbergers hanging around, showing flashes of brilliance but mostly showing that time catches up to even the greatest.

he was triple covered and williams was double covered on the play

you would think others would be wide open

but as usual, karen was locked on to his one target

Jets probably used the other 8 players to protect Erin from a three man rush.

Who triple covers Lazard?
