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.The only time success comes before work is in the dictionary -- Vince Lombardi

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.Last edited by NewsBruin; 12-01-2024, 01:50 PM.I believe in God, family, Baylor University, and the Green Bay Packers.

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 can't run no more

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 was thinking of a slight different question. Which made the biggest mistake at QB? Probably the Browns BUT all the shitty roster and coaching moves that came with Rodgers make it a closer call.Originally posted by Fritz View PostWhich franchise is sadder: The Jest or the Brownies? Or the Gints?

The Giants signing Daniel Jones to a $160 million contract extension, and not drafting a QB last year has to be considered as well.Originally posted by sharpe1027 View PostI was thinking of a slight different question.

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.
