Rodgers hasnt played well narrative is silly


Recommended Posts

He was pretty bad on Sunday.  3 picks, one of which resulted in 7 points against.  Another coming with the game on the line in Rodgers' biggest spot so far as a Jet.  Plus the fact he missed Wilson on what should have been an easy TD for the lead.  Garrett toasted his defender and had an easy TD with a halfway decent throw, and Rodgers overthrew him by like 10 yards.  Still would have been 1:36 left at that point but I would have taken my chances being able to shut down Darnold in a big spot.  

Lot of ugly with that game, but the most concerning to me was easily how Rodgers played.

Rodgers has no receivers:

 

Garret Wilson- total disappointment so far, yes he had 100+ yards finally week 5- on 22 targets

 

Lazard - a drop machine

 

Williams - not healthy enough for a full time snap share

 

Gipson - trash

 

Corley - trash

 

Conklin- JAG

 

And people still don’t want Davante Adams who is desperate to come here.

Only jet fans think a qb who 2 games ago could not get us in the endzone and last week threw 3 back backing picks in another loss isnt playing bad.

Hysterical.

Impossible to disagree. He had one good game out of 5. The ball was in his hands with a chance to win the game, and he threw the INT to end the game. He did not have to rush as there was plenty of time and a time out.  Rodgers can blame this or that, but as the real Jets GM and qb, he should have shown way more. He appears more interested in making offseason news rather than concentrate on football.

When every player is saying “we need more accountability” that is a dog whistle for saying the coaching sucks.

It is.... and thats exactly what this is about. 

Sasleh the nice guy can get just as old as the loud mouthed Rex ...when your'e losing everything gets old

By his standards, that’s abject failure 

Why the Jets are where they are is layered with problems.

But this right here is a grim reality.

You think Rodgers is going to improve as the weather gets worse? 

And yes he is a reason. He is changing plays at the line and doing audibles into runs up the gut and the defenses are keyed onto it. 

I see this becoming an issue. Hope I’m wrong.

The OL still doesn't understand the blocking scheme. With the exception of Fashanu, this is a veteran group who still don't know which direction to block. Coaching has been horrendous.

I read this off season that Monken increased the amount of zone blocking scheme for the Ravens by like 30-50%, which is also the scheme Henry used in Tenn.

Factored in to letting Simpson walk and trading Moses.

That said, I don’t think they are bad players, maybe just not being used to their full capacity/capability.

Its funny today how Rodgers hasn't been playing today in the narrative when  just in NE he was the making all the throw and "vintage".

Just curious, is English a second language for you?  Do all your base belong to us?

Should we expect mid from Pat Mahomes?

You’re comparing a guy in his prime to a guy at the end of his career for starters. Yes I know what they make is very similar. But that’s bc Mahomes is signed long term and he’s decided to move money around.

 

Fact is is that Rodgers is being paid like an average nfl QB. And that’s about what he’s been. So he’s not this guy vastly underperforming right now. There’s tons of QBs being paid more than he is and doing worse.

That is complete revisionist history.  It's been two years of hearing about Rodgers the Savior, that he's still that same guy.

You don't trade, what they hoped would be, a 1st round pick, a 2nd round pick and more for a mediocre QB.

Maybe he gets better, I sure hope he does - but please let's not pretend the expectations were what we're getting.

Im all for Adams by the way - adding good players always helps BUT

 

Garret Wilson- Stud WR1

Lazard - a drop machine - accurate - that is why a WR3 should not be given WR2 or WR 1 work load.

Williams - He should be ready for full time - he need to get the Lazard routes.

Gipson - He is WR4 and relatively alot better than other WR4's , but he is going to fail if make a feature of the program

Corley - Guy is a stud, just not used.

Conklin- Bro all the TE's are JAGs. And he is fine as that. 

 

I love to get Adams, but dont think we need him

Look I thought like everyone else Garrett plus a real quarterback would be magic but he has been a disappointment so far.  Defenses are doubling him or sticking actual lock down corners on him like Surtain and he is not playing like a legit WR1


Adding Davante Adams would help GW immensely.  Defenses would have to roll everything over to Adams leaving GW on an island 

 

The rest of our receivers are mediocre at best.
 

 Yes KC wins with not great receivers but they have the GOAT QB, GOAT TE, a hall of fame head coach and a top 5 defense

yeah im with you, but wilson has been a let down this year, but I dont blame him, look at his usage this year. He has had one game where he was targeted and even then not on game deciding plays. 

He should be the first look every time until adams is signed. His talent is great. Williams is good WR2.

One issue with offensive play calling is I think it should really be a 50/50 split between Allen and Hall.  Hall has been atrocious

Defense been the defense Aaron and offense been..

2023 Jets didn't score 93 points on offense. Two TDs and two safeties occurred with the offense watching from the sideline. Then throw in a couple more FGs where the offense started the drive inside FG range and only came up with 3 pts after barely moving the ball. So that's 24 of the 93 points last year's team scored that can be fully credited to the defense & special teams. This year two drives started in (deep) FG range ended in FGs.  

Even with this offense being a huge letdown - the past two games in particular - it's still:

2024 offense = 87 pts = 17.4 ppg (add another 1.2 points per game if Zuerlein doesn't miss two FGs)

2023 offense = 69 pts = 13.8 ppg

Aaron Rodgers + Tyron Smith + Mike Williams + Braelon Allen only being worth +3.6 points per game is almost impossible to believe.

Better pass protection and a run game are needed for Rodgers to Wilson to work.  They’re figuring things out as evident by Wilson having 12 catches against the Vikings.  But the jets can not expect to win many games if Rodgers has to throw 54 passes.

Rodgers just needs an oline. Rodgers just needs his own coach. Rodgers just needs Lazard and Cobb. No, wait he just needs Davante Adams. Rodgers just needs some ayahuasca at halftime. At what point do you realize there are other QBs doing more with less and that Rodgers is a shell of what he was because of age and injury? This team will be rid of Rodgers sooner than later and needs to focus on the future.

Sunday he was an issue. All 3 INTs on him.

 

But in general you’re not wrong.

OL has been garbage and there’s been no run game. Hard to play good at QB unless you’re crazy athletic like Daniels if yoir OL has you running 20 times a game. Add that the defense doesn’t have to worry about the run… and that’s what we’ve seen these last 2 weeks.

 

We see what this O can look like when playing at the level that should be its standard against NE. All phases working.

Quite frankly guys need to be benched or embarrassed behind close doors.

Ya there’s some guys who we just can’t bench bc of different reasons….. but there’s only a few of those on offense.
