QB Aaron Rodgers, NYJ (1 Viewer)

Jets don't have a prayer regardless of who they trade for. They barely beat the sorry Titans, got rolled badly by the 49ers, and lost to the pathetic Broncos.
 
Article is behind a paywall and this part of the article is about Adams trade options but I sure thought this line was a little eye opening:

While Adams would like to be reunited with his former QB, I was told he has some concerns about Rodgers’ plans to stay in New York past this season.

I would think the concern is Rodgers retiring. I'm sure Adams has his cell phone number. But then again, Rodgers has poor reception at times.

And they continue to give this cry baby buffoon his way. It's worked out well so far 🙄
Aaron has another body to blame for his failures.
The coach
The refs
The teamates
The playcalling
The weather
The fans
The deli's in New York
The cab drivers
The geriatric O-line
The receivers
"And you kids better get off my lawn right now or I'm calling the police!"

Somewhere Robert Saleh is getting sun while getting paid by Woody, knowing that he will be back in the NFL next season while Rodgers will quit after this one.
 
Rodgers has said he plans to play for the Jets beyond this season, though it’s unclear how much that calculus would change if he (and the team) continue down the path they’re on. Surely, Rodgers didn’t envision his first real season as a Jet going this way; 2-5 is the worst record he’s ever had through seven games.

And it’s not as if Rodgers is playing his best football. He’s thrown seven interceptions, tied for the second-most in the NFL. He ranks 28th in completion percentage (61.5) among qualifying quarterbacks and 24th in EPA per pass attempt. There have been 50 quarterbacks to throw for 300 yards in a game since the start of the 2022 season, a list that includes Zach Wilson, Mike White, Desmond Ridder, Mac Jones, Will Levis, Bryce Young and Jarrett Stidham — but not Rodgers.

Whether Rodgers wants to keep playing or not, it’s conceivable that Johnson (or a new general manager) might prefer to bring in a new quarterback, possibly with their first-round pick (according to Tankathon, the Jets would have the fifth overall pick if the season ended today). Rodgers has a $23.5 million cap hit in 2025. According to Over the Cap, if the Jets were to cut him, trade him, or he retired post-June 1, the team would incur a $14 million dead-cap charge in each of the next three seasons (because of some bonus money spread out over future years) while saving $9.5 million in cap space.

 
If he does state he wants to come back next year can the Jets really believe it at this point? Do they pass on QB in the draft only for ARod to go AWol in the summer again?

This is a lost season. Will they keep rolling him out there to lose games and fan confidence?

Is Travis likely to be fit enough to play before end of season? I don't have high hopes for him but I guess they might want to see if they have any potential here?
 
Just read an article on ESPN about him drinking some special water that is supposed to keep him hound and healthy. This is not a joke btw…

I hate to be writing this as a Bears fan, and longtime disliker of Rodgers, but I actually think Rodgers is playing pretty well this season. He's obviously not MVP Rodgers, but that was never a realistic expectation. I think he's played well most of the season (the Vikings game being the only real "bad" game) he's been let down by his pass catchers quite a bit and had the worst INT luck of anyone other than Mahomes this season. Despite the 7 INTs, I'd argue he's been his typical careful with the ball self. I'd say of those 7, maybe 3 were his fault. Hell, 1 bounced off the 5 on Garrett Wilson's chest.

He's made some really impressive throws, made good decisions, and made good reads. His accuracy has been below par, that's the biggest issue, and he's taking too many sacks, but that's always been a thing for him, even in some of his MVP years.

The Jets aren't 3-6 because of Rodgers, He's been arguably the best part of their team since their pass coverage fell off after week 4.

I agree and to add to that, their normally reliable kicker probably cost them two games as well. The Jets are being the typical Jets so far, but it seems like they actually have a pretty decent team despite the record.

He's certainly playing night and day better than Wilson. For all the griping, Rodgers certainly has improved the QB position for the Jets.

Rogers has started to look like his old self for the first time since leaving the Packers.
 
2025
Raiders?
Vikings?
Tennessee?
Carolina?
Browns?
Vikings for the troll move, ala Favre?
There is a path for Rodgers to end up in Minnesota. Darnold has earned a long term contract and with having drafted a young QB the Vikings are unlikely to pony up. McCarthy has just undergone a second surgery on his knee, making it unlikely he is ready to start the season. Rodgers could be a one year stop gap QB.

Raiders signing Rodgers wouldn't be a surprise either. They could then trade for Adams.
