JoeNamathsFurCoat Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Unfortunately for the Jets, Jordan Love was not available. They’ll have to wait about 15 more years for the opportunity to bail the Packers out of a bad contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is result of Rogers decline holding the offense back then next year reality will set in. Relax. It was the Cowboys in playoffs. Packers were 9-8 and will not have a shot next week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was in his prime and ready to win a Super Bowl. Instead of drafting a WR, OL, TE or anything to help him win, they drafted his replacement. He then went on to win two MVPs after they drafted Jordan Love. The Jets drafting a QB with pick #10 would be the dumbest thing the Jets could do, and that is a hard task to beat. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamesr Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 This sure looks like the right answer. why did Joe offer so much?Jets wanted the deal done sooner rather than later. Get ARod in the building, know where they stood, have him there for OTAs etc. There was also a possible risk if the draft came and went with no deal.How much of the pressure was owner led vs. GM led we may never know.Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYDreamer Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 To be fair we have seen it work well two ways. The QB comes in sits and learns behind a veteran. It really depends on the mental make up of the QB. CJ Stroud is playing lights out. Bryce young could have used time behind someone. Mark Sanchez those first two years had a tremendous team around him going to the AFC championship two years in a row. Love is showing the time learned was valuable. Jared Goff was a guy who helped QB his team in the Rams to the SB but they decided to move him. He may end up showing the Lions more success over the coming years than the one Stafford won for the Rams. The Jets took the path as Brady, Manning and Stafford of older QB;s going to another team and winning quick. I believe drafting a QB behind Rodgers should take place. That is the Ron Wolf philosophy. You keep drafting one until you get it right and if you hit on multiple ones you have trade value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetpain Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 13 hours ago, Barry McCockinner said: Yup. People sh*t on the idea of drafting a QB because they think it will make Rodgers mad 🙄 And if we thought they made bad decisions previously, imagine what JD & Coach Bobby will do when there is a great likelihood they wont be here in 2025 to deal with the consequences of those decisions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That reeks of Wilson ball gargling if you ask me. No it's one of the key reasons Green Bay wanted to get rid of him. He just wanted to be surrounded by his guys and trashed management draft picks publicly. It's why were stuck with Lazzard and Hackett. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the D that was holding them back, not the O. MVP season 2 the D didn't hold them back. At home they lost in round 1 of the playoffs 13 to 10. The Packers after scoring a TD in the first Quarter scored 3 points the rest of the way. The Packers had the 9th ranked D in both of his MVP seasons. They lost at home in the playoffs both years. The Packers D this year was ranked much worse than in either of Rodgers MVP years. They just went on the road and their O kicked the crap out of the Cowboys who have the 5th ranked D in the NFL. Brady shat all over the No. 1 ranked Seattle D in the SB. Good QB's beat good defenses in the NFL. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuscanyTile2 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Fwiw, give the Packers credit for sitting Love for a few years and letting him learn. Imagine if ZW had at least a year or 2 to learn before getting thrown to the wolves. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They always draft guys with the wrong attributes. Pennington was the only one since O’Brien who had basic qb attributes and instincts. That’s why parcells had his checklist for evaluating college qbs, to avoid guys like wilson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are missing the entire point like the jets’ gms. Pennington understood how to read a defense and conduct an offense. He could audible and lead. He was respected. He could complete a 10 yard slant accurately most of the time. Basic qb attributes. The jets take kids who can’t do any of this and we wind up with athletic turnover machines who need too much coddling. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having basic qb attributes does not mean a cannon arm. And that again is the problem with how jet gms evaluate qbs. The won’t take the guy who can run an offense competently with a higher floor and lower ceiling. They’ll take a guy who can’t be coached.

Yet, picking him 2 overall rather than 27th overall makes that highly unlikely. Plus he would still process the game slower than most and I think that's why he will likely never be more than a back up. Kid was likely a second round pick in any other year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The phrase “could make all throws” is inherently open-ended. He could easily make all the throws…that the team asks him to make. They weren’t going to ask him to be Brett Favre.

He couldn't really throw deep but I also thought he couldn't throw that medium length (e.g. 10 yards) sidelines throw down the field.

Hard for anxious owners to sit first round qbs when the team sucks and you have a meh game manager in there. This is the bad cycle the jets are in. They’re either reaching for qbs who can’t play in the nfl or trading for fading stars past their prime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought he would have been the perfect QB for Rex Ryan. Run the ball, highly intelligent, accurate, won’t lose you the game, high leadership qualities and not scared of the big moment. Post-injury he was hanging on by a thread, shame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
