It’s noteworthy that Russini and, to a lesser extent, Rosenblatt are only ones able to report on the Jets being a dumpster fire behind the scenes. Having that national platform gives her some freedom to work whereas guys like Hughes and Cimini, etc would have to move to another beat if the Jets org got up in their feelings about something they reported on. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing there are a fair amount. @Warfish My nephew texted my son that he hopes Rodgers gets hurt in the first game. He included a #NotMyQB. If you don't think there are Jets fans out there rooting for him to get hurt or fail, you're living in denial. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corn Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Trash people weirdos and turds do a lot of name calling. Everybody but them. Rogers has stepped out and away from the crowd like a few others. Japanese proverb says the nail that sticks out gets hammered. Keep the damn politics out of football and sports!!! Unless we need to take a knee this year it will be okay.:) Having spewing my own crap if JD takes swing at another quarterback prospect with the intention to sit a year or two, I will forever kiss his ass ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet AR8 is the one who gets all this ridiculous scrutiny because he has opinions that people don't like. Why do you guys keep white knighting for him? He obviously doesn't care what people think. I haven't seen anyone hope for injury or that he plays poorly. People are saying he's a narcissist and/or a dick both of which there is ample evidence for. In truth he's gotten less heat of any Jet QB in the last 25 years. Zap got far more grief just for sucking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Says the guy that is positive he said what was reported he had said with no witnesses. I defend him because I feel he's disliked and attacked mostly for his stance on a certain thing that happened in 2020 and honestly it wasn't an off the wall stance to take at the time. Meanwhile down in Miami Hill is beating women and no one gives a sh*t. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, although Rosenblatt was just a less annoying Hughes before Russini joined the Athletic. He’s along for the ride with the Athletics Jets reporting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post FTL Jet Fan Posted March 17 Popular Post Share Posted March 17 I don't care what his personal beliefs are or what he does with his time as long as it’s not hurting others. He has the right to say what he wants, insensitive or not ,all i want is him to at least make it through a season, dare I say two. Just do your job on the field then go fulfill your agenda. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 I greatly dislike Aaron Rodgers, didn't like him in Green Bay and I do not like him here for a variety of reasons. Essentially the entire success of this version of the Jets resides with him though so I'll cheer for him and hope he is totally healthy for a couple more years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt39 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 38 minutes ago, Warfish said: Classic "whataboutism" in action. Players who hit women or kids also get scrutinized and more. But this thread isn't about hitting women or kids. People with "opinions people don't like" who also are famous public figures also get scrutinized. This is not unique. You see, the issue with whataboutism is that it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only speak to what I've seen and the response doesn't seem that outrageous. 2 things can be true at once - I can think he's a narcissistic kook but still want him to lay waste to the AFC next year. He hasn't crossed any lines for me that make me hate him or want him off the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
