Its funny but horrifically possible!
I was four months old when they won a Super Bowl. It was so exciting I pooped my pants. Hopefully the next time they win one, it won't be the same result for me.
Can't you just see Woody at the press conference saying "We want to win now and Carson is the man to get that done1"
I don't anticipate a huge market for him, but from a cap perspective paying Jimmy G around $28-30MM while also carrying Wilson's no. 2 overall pick salary will make it tough to also sign Mike White at around $8MM a year.
I was also there for the infamous flying lawnmower game - whoever approved that idea was insane. They had multiple things flying (i remember a plane and a snoopy doghouse or something) -
Well I have a PTSD image of Leon Hess at a press conference stating that he was 80 yrs old and wanted to win now - and Rich Kotite is the man to do it!
I pray they dont pay that much for Jimmy G - he couldnt find any team to give him over $10M last yr and he promptly got hurt again. Good point on the ZW getting reps tho - thats why I think Rodgers is the top option for them - ZW idolizes him and they have a good relationship - somehow they see A-Rod coaching him up and Zach takes over in 2 yrs and JD's bust pick is vindicated. I dont see it but it seems they have that as a fantasy- I think White is going to be left out.
I’m basing it off supply/demand and perhaps inflated the numbers a bit, but I do see Jimmy G somewhere around $25MM realistically.
I could be wrong, but Raiders as the favorite makes very little sense to me - their defense is terrible and KC/LAC are still in the way
Sounds like they could use a top QB? But ... I get what you mean -- a short-term, high-dollar, "let's go for it all, now is the time" star QB contract is probably not the wisest direction to go. Especially since they just had Carr and still missed the playoffs. (Though they had a terribly unlucky/unplucky season which could have turned out a lot better.)
The Raiders are in a rebuild imo
The team doesn’t play in NYC and none of the players live there. They live in affluent NJ suburbs.
Rodgers and Brissett have been mentioned. I’m sure Jimmy G is under consideration.
Joe Namath spent many nights in NYC
Carrdi Gras
Well one of us knows what we’re talking about here but feel free to disagree with him.
It was a factor in his decision, it was discussed nationally, don't make this personal
You’re saying that it’s tough to raise four kids in NJ making $40MM a year. It’s a silly ignorant statement.
You're saying that
There are 3 more sentences in that post after the family side of things.
I have no idea what I denied about Carr’s decision making, but I learned a valuable lesson again.
Joe Namath spent many nights in NYC
Maybe they should change the name to the Jersey Burb'n Jets or something
All that said, tough place for trying to raise 4 kids, you can disagree, no sweat.
Louisiana and it's southern charm was just too much for him.
Pralines and $150M will do that to a man and his family
He was yours for the taking, obviously the Jets have better options than Carr
What exactly those options are remain a mystery at this hour
Next!
Marcus Mariota is looking for work
luckily he doesn’t have kids to worry about. Imagine raising four kids on the mean streets of Chatham.
You guys are reading too much into things. Carr's family had a circle prayer. It took 2 seconds for them to choose New Orleans because of the name "Saints". Kind of like girls picking the color of helmets or which animal is tougher when they pick which team will win.
Good thing Dirty Aaron Rodgers likes to live dangerously and in sin.
Not really.
