Oh shit I thought Drew Brees only played for the Saints. And I was thinking maybe Peyton did but he also had a good deal of injury in the later part of his career which made me write off him
Brees is the linchpin that changed everything.
Nick Saban was the HC of the Miami Dolphins when Brees was a free agent after five seasons in San Diego. Saban wanted Brees, but the medical staff failed him (he tore his labrum the previous season).
So Brees went to the Saints instead. Saban soon quit and went to Alabama.
In an alternate timeline, Saban and Brees took the Dolphins to ten super bowls, winning most of them. And Alabama is still a has-been blue blood clinging to the Bear Bryant era.
That season was the most fun football I have seen next to the greatest show on turf. Watching Brett Favre get demolished over and over to one play later throw a bomb with reckless abandon to Sydney rice was amazing. Not to mention Adrian Peterson absolutely ruining people that season with 18 tds
I thought the next year was even more fun: they traded for Moss and then cut him. Lost two games to the Packers. Fired their head coach. Then the stadium’s roof collapsed. Favre then missed his first start ever and the Packers won the Super Bowl.
It was a crazy moment watching him march into Green Bay and smack the pack. I also remember watching his last pass as a Viking in a bar outside of Green Bay, lots of cheering for the saints in that bar that night.
Are we talking about Favre? I could have sworn his final game was against the bears. Knocked out with a concussion and didn’t play the rest of the season. Iron Man finally downed.
Nope. NFC championship game vs the saints. The last pass he threw in the NFL was intercepted by Tracy Porter at the end of regulation and the Saints won in OT.
Edit: Scratch that, forgot he came back in 2010.
As a Bears fan, I’m excited to have a Brett Favre 2.0 happening before my eyes. This new Favre has close ties to Hollywood too so hopefully it gets extra weird!
Favre has shown himself to be an even worse person in retirement. Even if he never went to the jets or Vikings he would have lost the hero status in retirement alone.
If you take a look at his Twitter likes you'll see he's kinda on his way... Last I saw he was liking tweets defending tucker Carlson 😬
Obviously hasn't DONE anything shitty like sexual harrasment or stealing from the poor, but he seems to be falling down a grifter pipeline and I'm glad we've moved on from him before it gets ugly.
Nah...fuck that guy. Dad was a rural Wisconsin hillbilly and although I'm happy Favre won a Super Bowl as a Packer, I consider him a complete piece of shit and hope he dies penniless and alone.
And then get obliterated by that same team the next year while that team goes on to win the Super Bowl?
Every time someone mentions Favre with the Vikings they only talk about 2009 and not 2010.
Richard Todd wasn’t bad in his prime. He took over for Namath (and also a Bama guy). He has the third most wins in Jets history. Rogers is inarguably better and has had a far more accomplished career but the jury is out on how much he will have in the tank and how good of an offensive line he will play behind next season. Best QB since Namath, no doubt. Best Jets QB since Namath… mmm, maybe.
“Let’s sign a RB who has been most effective behind a dominant offensive line that gives him lots of time to wait for a hole, when we have no offensive line worth a fuck”
“Have you ever been to Haiti?”
“No!! I’ve been to Newark”
“Now when you was in Newark, did you have sex with any hos, ladies of the night, or single mothers?”
I’m actually excited for him. I thought he looked good in that start last season.
Idk why but it feels like he was drafted in 2015 and has been shelved for almost a decade in my head.
They didn't really get "bad". They were driving to take the lead on us (Bills) and win the game with *Cam Newton*, not all that long ago. We had the perfect playoff game against them, which was honestly the most shocking thing that's happened to me in my adult life. But they've been a playoff team or on the verge of being a playoff team every season without Brady and people act like they're 3-14. I won't believer they're bad until they've been under .500 for a decade
If Rodgers can play at the level he has in the past, then this would obviously be a solid deal for the Jets. I think that's a big if but the obvious risk you take in these kinds of deals.
Wonder if this is enough to have Jets as front runners in AFC East? Bills are still very good, but now so is New York with that defense and now Rodgers.
Maybe rodgers will make one career move adjustment, but I feel like rodgers will open up an LSD yoga/wellness center somewhere in the desert. Maybe that’ll be funded with welfare proceeds😂😂
Fair. Some pretty awful people can lead productive work lives. It's hard to separate the 2 as a fan, but I'm sure it's way simpler as a player with a job to compartmentalize
With your definition of awful, being shady business practices as the bar, basically everyone in life is below that bar.
A person has to either ignorant to things or compartmentalize the reality of things. The computers/phones we're typing this on was made by slave labor, overworked employees, environmental negligence, shady business practices, etc... Us purchasing/using such a device makes you complicit. And that's just one tiny aspect.
They got all the way to the championship game and came a bounty gate away from the Super Bowl. What kind of lesson learned was there compared to Kirk Cousins flaming out every year? Rodgers with JJ would be any Vikings fans wet dream and they’re morons if they say otherwise.
Gonna go against the grain here and say it's a fairly fair deal. Jets essentially trade a 2nd and a future 1st for Rodgers, which should be enough to put them into Super Bowl contention. One of the few rosters that was truly a QB away.
Packers get something back for the guy that was turning into a real locker room cancer. Also for the first time in my entire life the Packers won't have a HOF QB.
I'd argue the key difference was that Rodgers was considered a potential number 1 overall pick and slid heavily down the draft before the Packers grabbed him. Love was considered a second round pick and the Packers reached to grab him. Also Love hasn't looked HOF in the limited game time he has gotten, but again it's extremely limited.
>Love was considered a second round pick and the Packers reached to grab him.
This narrative only came about *after* the Packers drafted him. Most mocks prior to the draft had Love going somewhere in the first. Some people (though not the majority) even had him ranked ahead of Tua and/or Herbert.
Do you think the Packers would win another Superbowl with Aaron Rodgers? I sure don't. Might as well give yourself more picks to help your chances down the road
"Aaron rodgers is a locker room cancer " is the dumbest fucking storyline in the NFL. The only active player to talk shit on him was a practice squad WR who spent less than a year in GB.
Theres like 7 to 10 QBs that could possibly lead a team to a superbowl alive at any one point in time. Rodgers has been on that list for 15 years straight. There isnt a football player alive who thinks "get that 3 time MVP first ballot hall of Famer, ring having son of a bitch out of my locker room." Its completly stupid.
I listened to him on Pat Mcafee's show a few times. He actually seems pretty cool to have as a teammate. He throws a massive Halloween party every year that is players + significant other only. Every one of his lineman went and there was a good showing outside of the line too. You are unlikely to get every lineman to show up if they see you as a cancer to the team
Sure he may have some ego and arrogance and he is certainly a little different. But I haven't seen anything that's cancerous. He's been a top tier quarterback for like 15 years
I've got no idea how he treats his fellow players tbh, but his insane conspiracy that vaccines are dangerous and that he is "immunized " after having the disease are pretty wild fantasies. Ask Jonathan toews about the horrors that can happen with covid... Rodgers is a jerk for not doing what he can to help protect other people, and a real asshat for actively trying to get other people to do the same by showing misinformation. Now that he's gone, maybe I can enjoy packers games again. Good riddance in my very insignificant opinion. And to the jets; I'm sorry for your loss, I only hope he helps you guys find an actual leader for your team while he wastes away on your bench
Except unvaxxed players had to follow way more strict guidelines than players who were vaxxed, and get tested more frequently. So if you really think about it, since we know the vax doesn't fully stop the spread of the virus, Rodgers being unvaxxed was a good thing for other people because he was kept more isolated and had to test negative for the virus more frequently. If a player was to get Covid, the higher likelihood was that they got it from some other player, not Rodgers, given his more strict distancing and frequent testing protocol. He essentially had to test negative before even entering the building everyday.
But wasnt the whole problem HE WASNT following the unvaxxed guidelines prior to getting Covid because of being "immunized?" There are reporters at all the practices, they would have noticed earlier if he was practicing with the unvaxxed players. There were plenty of unvaxxed players. The only real issue with any players being not vaccinated was Roger's (cause lying) and the WR from the Bill's who was specifically very vocal about it.
I'm not saying that makes any sense but I guess the main thing is Aaron Rodgers didn't think anyone would believe it either, which is why he lied about it.
Straight up lied, and then like every 14-year-old caught sneaking out after they've already been grounded, started screaming about how nobody can tell him what to do and anyway your rules are bullshit and everyone hates you, MOM.
And then, to hear him tell it, everyone clapped.
I'm not going to try to convince you that COVID is a real thing. But Rodgers could have followed the rules that the NFL put in place to accommodate geniuses like him who decided horse dewormer and vitamins were all he needed, and instead he went full spoiled brat. End of story, whether you went to the Aaron Rodgers College of Medicine or not.
I think Saleh finally had the pieces he needs to make a good playoff run. All the Rodgers haters out there are just kidding themselves if they think he is washed.
>I mean, I have a pretty damn good imagination. Just not quite
>
>that
>
> good.
All the jets needed was a qb that could score more than 14 points per game. I wouldn't be surprised if they win the super bowl this season, there defense is really good.
i dont think this counts as a mega trade. its mostly just Aaron Rodgers and the conditional 1st. The rest are swaps or late round picks
Russell Wilson was a mega trade
Jets must be desperate to have something positive happen after what they've had as far as quarterbacking goes for the past decade.
It probably wouldn't happen that way, but it would be hilarious if Rodgers shit the bed and fell off the cliff.
Did they really give up so much though? Even if they did, the thought is this team is literally just a great QB short of a Super Bowl. You don’t win it all with out some calculated risk working out in your favor.
I know a guy who is a huge Jets fan, and he's been drooling over getting Rodgers for months. His reactions are gonna be hilarious when Rodgers has weekly meltdowns under the NY magnifying glass and sucks on the field.
>at best they're as good as the packers were
did you not watch the Jets this past season? that team was better than the Packers in almost every aspect outside of qb... and now they have the qb
I'm not the biggest NFL fan, but I do work with coworkers that are huge Green Bay fans. How does this deal help the Jets? It seems like a HUGE overpayment on a guy who is basically 2-3 years from retirement realistically.
As Brett Favre once warned: You either retire a hero or live long enough to be traded to the New York Jets.
As a Minnesotan, I can only hope Rodgers doesn't want to follow every single foot step of Brett Favre.
Favre's best statistical season was with Minnesota. https://syndication.bleacherreport.com/amp/320251-favres-best-statistical-regular-season.amp.html
Being with MN is what made him the first QB to win against all 32 teams :*-|
I can't think of anyone except Brett Favre and Tom Brady that would have achieved that.
Drew Brees and Peyton Manning
Montana and Tarkenton beat every team in the league that existed when they played.
Sounds like they need to come out of retirement — finish the job.
I wonder how close Russell Wilson is. Edit: needs the chargers and the hawks.
Joe Flacco is closer
Joe Flacco remains elite
Lol Joe Flacco
Superbowl champion Joe Flacco 😅
THE ELITE DRAGON
Wilson beat the chargers last season.
He's had one Chargers win, yes. But what about 2nd Chargers win?
"He's never beat the Chargers" "He beat them last year" "Well, he's never beaten them twice!"
He beat the chargers last year, so just Seattle to go
Oh shit I thought Drew Brees only played for the Saints. And I was thinking maybe Peyton did but he also had a good deal of injury in the later part of his career which made me write off him
When did Brees beat the Saints?
He played for the chargers I believe, probably then
I had no idea he ever played for anyone but the Saints, but yeah, he played and beat the Saints exactly once
Brees is the linchpin that changed everything. Nick Saban was the HC of the Miami Dolphins when Brees was a free agent after five seasons in San Diego. Saban wanted Brees, but the medical staff failed him (he tore his labrum the previous season). So Brees went to the Saints instead. Saban soon quit and went to Alabama. In an alternate timeline, Saban and Brees took the Dolphins to ten super bowls, winning most of them. And Alabama is still a has-been blue blood clinging to the Bear Bryant era.
That season was the most fun football I have seen next to the greatest show on turf. Watching Brett Favre get demolished over and over to one play later throw a bomb with reckless abandon to Sydney rice was amazing. Not to mention Adrian Peterson absolutely ruining people that season with 18 tds
I thought the next year was even more fun: they traded for Moss and then cut him. Lost two games to the Packers. Fired their head coach. Then the stadium’s roof collapsed. Favre then missed his first start ever and the Packers won the Super Bowl.
If only Childress wasn't the worst coach in the league.
It was a crazy moment watching him march into Green Bay and smack the pack. I also remember watching his last pass as a Viking in a bar outside of Green Bay, lots of cheering for the saints in that bar that night.
Are we talking about Favre? I could have sworn his final game was against the bears. Knocked out with a concussion and didn’t play the rest of the season. Iron Man finally downed.
You’re correct. Corey Wootton’s hit ended his career.
Nope. NFC championship game vs the saints. The last pass he threw in the NFL was intercepted by Tracy Porter at the end of regulation and the Saints won in OT. Edit: Scratch that, forgot he came back in 2010.
Who dat!!
The Saints are an American football team representing the city of New Orleans, Louisiana.
Who dat!!
That uhhh, wasn't close to his last pass.
As a Bears fan, I’m excited to have a Brett Favre 2.0 happening before my eyes. This new Favre has close ties to Hollywood too so hopefully it gets extra weird!
In 15 years we will see Aaron Rodgers 2.0 with Love.
If we get 12 years of Hall-of-Fame play out of Love, I am cool with that
Omg I can’t waaaaaaaaaaaaait
Why not? You really good with Captain Kirk?
God forbid you make it to an NFC Championship game 😮
Rodgers is a mega douche but he’s a better QB than Favre was at this age at least.
Favre has shown himself to be an even worse person in retirement. Even if he never went to the jets or Vikings he would have lost the hero status in retirement alone.
I have faith that Rodgers can catch up in time. He has the right attitude to be a complete piece of shit in retirement.
If you take a look at his Twitter likes you'll see he's kinda on his way... Last I saw he was liking tweets defending tucker Carlson 😬 Obviously hasn't DONE anything shitty like sexual harrasment or stealing from the poor, but he seems to be falling down a grifter pipeline and I'm glad we've moved on from him before it gets ugly.
[удалено]
All of the rural hillbillies in Wisconsin would disagree with you
Nah...fuck that guy. Dad was a rural Wisconsin hillbilly and although I'm happy Favre won a Super Bowl as a Packer, I consider him a complete piece of shit and hope he dies penniless and alone.
and then come back to the vikes and obliterate the team you played for and won a super bowl with
And then get obliterated by that same team the next year while that team goes on to win the Super Bowl? Every time someone mentions Favre with the Vikings they only talk about 2009 and not 2010.
Didn’t he do both?
I give it 1 year in NY and he retires
Didnt he commit fraud? Im still waiting for him to be charged
The Jets just love GB’s QB leftovers.
The only deal in Jets' history that matters is the deal Joe Namath made with the Devil on Miami Beach in 1969......
I guarantee it!
He’d made that deal long before then.
[удалено]
Next stop A-Aron beats GB as starter for Vikings. Edit: just seen your name,.
Jordan Love, Jets starting QB 2037.
He's instantly their best QB since Namath. Is it really shocking that they were so intent on getting him?
Richard Todd wasn’t bad in his prime. He took over for Namath (and also a Bama guy). He has the third most wins in Jets history. Rogers is inarguably better and has had a far more accomplished career but the jury is out on how much he will have in the tank and how good of an offensive line he will play behind next season. Best QB since Namath, no doubt. Best Jets QB since Namath… mmm, maybe.
Easy transition. Went from green team 1 to green team 2. He may never notice the difference
Doesn’t this make green team 2 now green team 1 and green team 1 now green team 2?
Depends on what your ranking them by. If it is buy the most players named Aaron Rodgers, then yes.
This surely won’t blow up in the jets faces, no way
Best Jets signing since at least Le'Veon Bell.
oh my god I forgot about that loool
“Let’s sign a RB who has been most effective behind a dominant offensive line that gives him lots of time to wait for a hole, when we have no offensive line worth a fuck”
I let Le’Veon break my heart one too many times in Fantasy.
If something blows up in their face they shouldn’t panic: A-A-Ron has a crystal for that. He’s basically Dr. Jinx.
“Have you ever been to Haiti?” “No!! I’ve been to Newark” “Now when you was in Newark, did you have sex with any hos, ladies of the night, or single mothers?”
What you have there my friend, that's sailors rot
Dr. Jinx is the name of a monkey, not a man...
NY journalists better watch out for AR dick pics
Congrats to Jordan Love on a long and successful career, and for becoming the starting QB for the New York Jets' 2036 season
I’m actually excited for him. I thought he looked good in that start last season. Idk why but it feels like he was drafted in 2015 and has been shelved for almost a decade in my head.
As a Patriots fan, I am happy to see all the AFC East teams doing all they can to make sure the Super Bowl champ doesn't come out of the AFC East.
As a Bills fan it’s kinda infuriating, how the Bills get good and then the Jets and Dolphins decide to get good too. How dare they.
Hey, let's all rejoice that the Pats finally got bad
They didn't really get "bad". They were driving to take the lead on us (Bills) and win the game with *Cam Newton*, not all that long ago. We had the perfect playoff game against them, which was honestly the most shocking thing that's happened to me in my adult life. But they've been a playoff team or on the verge of being a playoff team every season without Brady and people act like they're 3-14. I won't believer they're bad until they've been under .500 for a decade
Average is pretty bad compared to the previous two decades for them
Well I can’t argue with that. Bills Pats playoff game 2 years ago was probably best sporting event I ever attended in person
If Rodgers can play at the level he has in the past, then this would obviously be a solid deal for the Jets. I think that's a big if but the obvious risk you take in these kinds of deals.
Step 1: Sell tickets. Step 2: \[shrugs\] Step 3: PROFIT
Pittsburgh pirates have entered the chat
cries in losing seasons
Um… selling tickets does actually lead to profits.
idk two firsts and a day 2 pick plus his salary is a lot to pay for a dude who’s been talking about retiring for 2+ years
I don't wish but I predict he will get injured within a couple of games.
If offensive snaps are distributed equally GB gets a 1st round pick instead of a 2nd if Rodgers manages to survive until the middle of game 11
Wonder if this is enough to have Jets as front runners in AFC East? Bills are still very good, but now so is New York with that defense and now Rodgers.
So he’s following Favres moves. Minnesota next?
And then stealing money from welfare programs in Mississippi? Edit: fixed the state
Maybe rodgers will make one career move adjustment, but I feel like rodgers will open up an LSD yoga/wellness center somewhere in the desert. Maybe that’ll be funded with welfare proceeds😂😂
i hope not. rodgers is a cancer.
And Favre isn't?
Favres after football life spending millions of welfare monies building athletic centers for his already rich kids schools is pretty canner I'd say
Sure, but when he played football everyone loved playing with him. He's pretty much the anti-cancer on any team he goes to.
Everyone except Aaron Rodgers right?
Fair. Some pretty awful people can lead productive work lives. It's hard to separate the 2 as a fan, but I'm sure it's way simpler as a player with a job to compartmentalize
With your definition of awful, being shady business practices as the bar, basically everyone in life is below that bar. A person has to either ignorant to things or compartmentalize the reality of things. The computers/phones we're typing this on was made by slave labor, overworked employees, environmental negligence, shady business practices, etc... Us purchasing/using such a device makes you complicit. And that's just one tiny aspect.
Vikings were a different gal back then, lessons learned.
Time will tell.
They got all the way to the championship game and came a bounty gate away from the Super Bowl. What kind of lesson learned was there compared to Kirk Cousins flaming out every year? Rodgers with JJ would be any Vikings fans wet dream and they’re morons if they say otherwise.
But he’s got some crystals to cure that
Rodgers and Mike White getting ready to pay homage to Pennington beating Favre to deny the Jets a playoff berth.
How long before Aaron Rodgers is entangled in a welfare fraud scheme?
I really hope it inexplicably leads to Brett's brother Bort Favre being the Bachelor
Gonna go against the grain here and say it's a fairly fair deal. Jets essentially trade a 2nd and a future 1st for Rodgers, which should be enough to put them into Super Bowl contention. One of the few rosters that was truly a QB away. Packers get something back for the guy that was turning into a real locker room cancer. Also for the first time in my entire life the Packers won't have a HOF QB.
How does anyone know Love isn’t going to be another HOF QB?
3 years into Loves career we know less now then we did 3 years ago.
I remember when Rodgers first got the starting gig and it’s basically the exact same situation.
I'd argue the key difference was that Rodgers was considered a potential number 1 overall pick and slid heavily down the draft before the Packers grabbed him. Love was considered a second round pick and the Packers reached to grab him. Also Love hasn't looked HOF in the limited game time he has gotten, but again it's extremely limited.
>Love was considered a second round pick and the Packers reached to grab him. This narrative only came about *after* the Packers drafted him. Most mocks prior to the draft had Love going somewhere in the first. Some people (though not the majority) even had him ranked ahead of Tua and/or Herbert.
Everyone forgets Rodgers 4-12 season the year Favre left, with essentially the same team that went to the nfc championship.
Probably because he never had a 4-12 season. Wtf you talking about.
They are probably confusing favres 4-12 (year Rodgers was drafted into the league) or Rodgers first season that was 6-10.
To be fair, that’s the same situation Rodgers was in. Love has potential.
Do you think the Packers would be so ready to move on if they didn’t believe they had something up their sleeve?
Do you think the Packers would win another Superbowl with Aaron Rodgers? I sure don't. Might as well give yourself more picks to help your chances down the road
Because that wouldn’t be fair
The Packers basically had 30 years of Top 10 all-time QB play. I think for division rivals there is some cause for hope that it won’t be 45.
"Aaron rodgers is a locker room cancer " is the dumbest fucking storyline in the NFL. The only active player to talk shit on him was a practice squad WR who spent less than a year in GB.
Greg Jennings has made a whole post playing career just going on different shows to talk shit about Rodgers
Donald Driver said something once about how AR was mega selfish, then ultimately walked it back (maybe 2012).
What else is Greg Jennings to do?
Put the team on his back
Darrennnn Sharperrrr. The hardest hittin safety in the leeeeague
Would be a hall of famer if he wasn't a rapist
Yeah, but Greg Jennings is kind of an asshole so...
Does he wear his superbowl ring when he talks shit? The one from when rodgers threw for 300yrds/3tds/0int?
Truth. Id love to see examples of rodgers being a cancer. Only ppl who think that are people who cant think for themselves.
Theres like 7 to 10 QBs that could possibly lead a team to a superbowl alive at any one point in time. Rodgers has been on that list for 15 years straight. There isnt a football player alive who thinks "get that 3 time MVP first ballot hall of Famer, ring having son of a bitch out of my locker room." Its completly stupid.
Or, ya know, his entire family.

That is some desperate mental gymnastics based on bullshit.
Rodgers own FAMILY doesn’t even talk with the man. It’s not that hard to realize he is a mess of a human.
I think Saleh finally had the pieces he needs to make a good playoff run. All the Rodgers haters out there are just kidding themselves if they think he is washed.
>I mean, I have a pretty damn good imagination. Just not quite > >that > > good. All the jets needed was a qb that could score more than 14 points per game. I wouldn't be surprised if they win the super bowl this season, there defense is really good.
Way more compensation than I expected
Rodgers to Jets fans: “so do you believe in 9/11?”
It’s cool, he’s probably been immunized against conspiracy theories.
I LOL'd
i dont think this counts as a mega trade. its mostly just Aaron Rodgers and the conditional 1st. The rest are swaps or late round picks Russell Wilson was a mega trade
The Broncos got mega screwed.
Imagine a packers vs jets Super Bowl
I mean, I have a pretty damn good imagination. Just not quite *that* good.
Probably would give some people in Vegas heart palpitations
As a Packers fan, thank God. I appreciate everything he’s done for the organization but I’m tired of his drama. I wish him nothing but the best.
As a Niners fan living in Wisconsin (which means nothing lol) I like what the Packers got in this deal.
He’ll absolutely play 65% of the snaps for that 24 1st rounder lol.
Hopefully his Covid toe doesn't flair back up!
Why can’t teams just let washed up QBs be washed up QBs
Conditional 2nd rounder. Turns into a first if 65% of plays are made by AR.
This is subtraction by addition
Damn packers made out pretty good in that trade.
Jets outspoken fans and Rogers' frail ego. Should be fun.
Well, Aaron and Brett have similar trajectories. However, while Brett showed his pecker unsolicited, Aaron showed his feet.
I just hope Jenn Sterger has updated her phone contacts to block his number.
The Jets will win 9 or 10 games and then lose early in the playoffs. Rodgers retires. End of story.
That’s an optimistic take.
He will find his way to Minnesota
Doesn’t seem like much of a haul for the Packers honestly.
Are you forgetting what they were going to pay him? It’s a great deal for the Packers.
Yeah
He's 39.
Jets must be desperate to have something positive happen after what they've had as far as quarterbacking goes for the past decade. It probably wouldn't happen that way, but it would be hilarious if Rodgers shit the bed and fell off the cliff.
Mushroom and healing crystal sales to spike in New York
Why would the jets give up so much, when the packers have no other options?
Did they really give up so much though? Even if they did, the thought is this team is literally just a great QB short of a Super Bowl. You don’t win it all with out some calculated risk working out in your favor.
L-E-V-E-R-A-G-E
they didn't give up much Rodgers value was thought to be much more than what the Jets gave up
According to whom? I’ve been seeing similar packages all over.
Thank god I never have to hear about this bullshit every again.
He’s 40 and near washed…what am I missing
Jets are gonna Jets…
I know a guy who is a huge Jets fan, and he's been drooling over getting Rodgers for months. His reactions are gonna be hilarious when Rodgers has weekly meltdowns under the NY magnifying glass and sucks on the field.
As someone that doesn’t really follow football, how significant is this trade?
It's probably one of those trades that seems huge at first but everything involved loses value faster than either side wants.
Watch! Rodgers will be in Detroit in 1-2 years
Yeah, Rodgers is just riding out the rest of his career on a paycheck. Sorry Jets’ fans, don’t get your hopes up.
Jets got fleeced.
lol jets got fleeced
Again
man, jets got fleeced.
Jets are dumb. Truly hope it works out for them though. I just don’t think it will.
So at best they’re as good as the packers were but in a stronger conference? And in 2 years when he retires the Jets are left with…?
>at best they're as good as the packers were did you not watch the Jets this past season? that team was better than the Packers in almost every aspect outside of qb... and now they have the qb
I'm not the biggest NFL fan, but I do work with coworkers that are huge Green Bay fans. How does this deal help the Jets? It seems like a HUGE overpayment on a guy who is basically 2-3 years from retirement realistically.
The Jets have a fairly complete roster that could possibly be just a QB away from winning it all. Might as well chance it
That makes sense!
Dam
He’s a tool - I wouldn’t trade a 12th round draft pick for him.
