Xtina Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 17 minutes ago, Embrace the Suck said: Seems kind of judgemental and ignorant. Being a SB winner and multiple time league MVP is also not operating on a level most people operate on. Also, lets look at that "most people" concept. The average person isn't impressive whatsoever, and the bar for said group keeps getting lower and lower each day. Do you consider yourself as part of the "most people" group? Because they're a sad bunch heading for disaster in general. Don't aspire to be "most people" be yourself. Nothing judgmental or ignorant in Steve’s comment. In fact yours is backing him up.

Bobby816 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 15 minutes ago, AVM said: In the scenario unfolding he gets to get his "realistic" contract (with incentives) while also publicly saying he "gave up money" for the chance to win with Rodgers. I don't think he ultimately signs here, but I could see it Exactly. These players can be added without gutting the core of the team elsewhere and hopefully with giving Quinnen his extension. Extending Q likely gives us cap space this year. He will backload his deal I’m sure. To give us flexibility to win now. And given his age. Do we really mind paying him more in 4 years? He’d be in his prime still given his age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 6 minutes ago, Embrace the Suck said: What's their leverage? Not wanting the guy and expressing such, the huge yet non existent trade market for AR, or the cap bomb they themselves are facing? Their leverage? The jets are 100% DESPERATE to get the QB they have they are desperate to the point that they are going out and getting all sorts of rodgers favs to make him happy. The Jets only have the hammer as long as they had a legit plan B, they have no legit plan B and are assuming they have rodgers already. If I am green bay I squeeze the hell out of the jets. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunnie Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 15 minutes ago, Warfish said: Wilson (Rookie Deal) #1 Lazard (2 year Deal) #2 Moore (Rookie Deal) Slot Cobb (1 year deal) and Mims (last of his rookie deal) as depth. No OBJ. Draft a WR in the mid-rounds in 2023. That's a more than good enough unit for Rodgers to work with, with a mix of familiar and young talent, and should provide more than enough weapons, especially with what we already have at TE. And it doesn't break the bank. And maybe, with Rodgers, Carter/Knight at RB actually aren't so JAG-y backing up/holding the fort for Breece Hall's return. Not good enough ... need another star opposite Wilson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's GB's leverage? That means they have none. The Jets can walk away. Can GB? The Jets can always sign a mid level vet. It may not be what they want, but they can. GB can't undo their cap issues with AR, the animosity, or the fact that they have a first round pick wasting away. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oatmeal Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 1 hour ago, CanadaSteve said: I can understand why everyone is frustrated with Rodgers, and from one angle, he looks like an ecomaniacal prick. This is a different cat. Somebody who purposely drinks Ayahuasca tea to go on an inward journey of self-discovery is not operating on the level most people operate on. While I get it looks like complete arrogance from one perspective, I honestly have no doubt this dude is also thinking about "Do I want to take this pressure on?" Like, if I go to New York, the expectations are "Super Bowl or bust." Do I want that pressure in my life? Can I bring that to the table? If this dude at the age of 39 years old can dig down and say "Yeah.....Lets do this thing." He will be worth it. This will be the guy that will give it his all. He may not get us there, but he will give it his all. Brady is built the same way. And that is a mindset shift you want to reverberate throughout your organization. I honestly didn't think he would want to come here. But a dude like this isn't going to take something like this on unless he believes he can do it. And make no mistake, the expectation from this fan-base fueled by a media-rabid city is "Super Bowl or bust." Anything less will be deemed a failure. IF he actually signs here....buckle up. It's gonna be a fun year next year! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
