It’s going to be the Texans guy. 

Coming in to say the same thing. Nick Caserio turned the Texans around fast. That team has a lot of young pieces and a rookie QB that looks elite. He has the potential to be Mahomes good.

Look how he revamped receiving weapons: Nico Collins in the 3rd, Tank Dell in the 3rd, Metchie III in the 2nd, Brevin Jordan in the 5th and signs Dalton Shultz. That's a clinic.

Exactly, which is why he should be GM of the year, not Gutekunst as you suggested.

But he just made high picks becasue his team was terrible, the Green Bay GM pulled a huge miracle by getting a lot for a guy no one wanted and he was going to be stuck with.

He still had to choose the right players, take a peak at who we picked at 2 a couple of years ago. He also hit a home run with his coaching choice. Green Bay got to move up 3 or 4 spots in round 1 and 2 2nd round draft picks. Probably the best part of the deal for them was getting rid of the salary. I still would pick the Houston GM. To each his own.

A guy who was “90% retired”—his words—before the suckers in the Jets front office came into the picture.

Had an old totally malcontent vastly over paid QB whose skills were declining that he desperately wanted to get rid of with seemingly no way to get out of the problem.

Along comes one team and one team only who shows interest in the player and vast contract.   He then plays the GM of this team like a fiddle and watches the QB and the GM declare they getting together far far before anything was agreed to.   He smiles like the Grinch and puts the squeeze on the other gm and gets great draft capital out of it and rids himself of the problem he was going to be stuck with.

He also totally rids himself of a bunch of awful awful jag players that follow the old QB to the new team he had no use for and adds to his compensatory pick formula.

He inserts the new QB in waiting who has been as good as Rodgers was in his rookie year, has all the young WRs he drafted last year looking good now.

GM of the year!

 

A good Owner vetoes his GM's obvious desperation short-term gain/long-term pain move to try and save his job.

We don't have a good Owner.  Ours liked the idea of a big star, even if it cost our future.

Let’s be honest.
When this trade was made, about 70% of this board was talking Super Bowl(s), and thanking Woody Johnson for spending the $$$ it took to get Rodgers here. So Woody wasn’t the only one who took the bait in this scenario. Most of the fan base ate it up too.

JD is/was the “football guy” in the room. If anyone should’ve talked him out of this it was JD. He did the opposite.

Because like it or not, it was the best move to make. That’s why fans ate it up. 
Hindsight is fun.

Jordan Love out playing Patrick Mahomes, Jets have Tim Boyle.

Boo ya!

I mean to be fair, Zach Wilson played better than Mahomes in their meetup outside of that fumble. Zach Wilson still sucks, just like Jordan Love.

If that trade was the best move to make its because this regime utterly failed completley.

It was a desperation hail mary to save jobs with about a 1% chance of working out.

Fans ate it up because most of them are homers that eat up everything during the offseason.

Jordan Love is having a good season though.

True. It would be hilarious if he did the same thing Farve and Rodgers did.

Through 11 weeks Love had the exact same number of passing yards (2599) as Rodgers did through 11 weeks in his first season as starter

Yeah Texans turned it around in one year and we still have same isssues for 50 plus years

Don't believe the fake news media. You can't turn around a team with anything less than a six year plan.

Love is dubious but he sure as hell does not suck right now.  He has 22 tds to 10 ints and 2900 yards
