CSNY Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 17 minutes ago, JetPotato said: I'll take my chances with a guy who clearly understands the position mentally, and has proven that he can also do it physically. We haven't had a guy capable of either in decades. Sure, he may not be where he was previously, but I am supremely confident he'll have a better year than Baker Mayfield. As I type that, I'm questioning why I am even engaging in this ridiculous discussion. By your own admission you stated that Rodgers would be an average QB. My point was and is why are you or any one else willing to pay 40 million for an old average QB when there are plenty of average QBs that are far less expensive 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FidelioJet Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 2 minutes ago, JetPotato said: How do you know they don't? Look, I get it. Half the guys here think that Aaron Rodgers owes them a quick answer on what amounts to a major, personal life decision just because they want to know today. Clearly, they are they humble ones compared to Mr Ego. He doesn't owe us an answer, it's his life and he can do what he wants. But the Jets should really start really considering signing Jimmy or making Jackson an offer. Rodgers should understand that too as he makes a decision. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

football guy Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 It's entirely up to him and the Jets are committed to giving him the space to make the decision. Yes the angst is awful as a fan, but the Jets expected this. This recruitment started well before the meeting so it's not like this hasn't been in the works for a while... I'm sure that was expressed and I'm sure they'll schedule follow up calls/meetings as needed because there's a ton to go over, but I don't anticipate this dragging out much longer personally. They have a soft deadline set at March 12, but the Jets will surely spend their weekend finalizing their FA plans, so my guess is they will hope to have an answer by Friday unless for some reason Rodgers asks for more time. At that point I'm not sure how the Jets would answer, but it honestly doesn't benefit Rodgers to wait longer either if he wants to be included in personnel decisions (which he has insinuated he does). I'm just guessing, but Rodgers probably is taking the day to reflect on everything they went over yesterday, making tomorrow key decision date for him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronxville Jets Fan Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 The fact that he's still weighing retirement should further depress his trade value. If he's unsure this year, he's going to be unsure next year. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIGHT STALKER Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 I don't like this at all. Deciding whether to play for us or retire? Maybe he's pissed because there are no other teams wanting his services...either way, it sucks balls. Come on Aaron, wake up and die right and quit Fing around.

football guy Posted March 8, 2023 Share Posted March 8, 2023 34 minutes ago, Maxman said: Rex wanted Favre back, Brett wanted to move on. The one thing that makes this situation different: Favre always wanted to play for the Vikings. He has admitted he had revenge on his mind and he also saw an opportunity to play for his former coach (Darrell Bevell) on a stacked roster in Minnesota. He and they felt they could win a Super Bowl together with him at the helm, but the Packers just wouldn't allow it. He ultimately agreed to play for us to avoid retirement, and after a wild year filled with injuries he retired again, only to come back and sign with none other than the Vikings. Rodgers doesn't have a division rival to go to (or worth going to). Most of the NFC teams who need QBs are not ready to compete or come with major flaws. The one team that would make sense - San Francisco - is not interested in him (reportedly) and he doesn't sound very interested in playing for them either. The NFC South and AFC West play Green Bay next year so I guess one TB, ATL, CAR, or LV would be plausible if revenge was truly his motivation, but which of those teams are ready to compete and can offer a favorable situation the way we can? Just seems like it has become Jets or nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
