However his rolling eyes at and cursing at guys he sees as making mistakes gets real old. Seems very passive aggressive. You think he's right? There's 3 options there lol, WHICH one is right?

Part of me would rather have future compensation linked to some combination of Rodgers performance and team success just because I assume the Jets would almost certainly agree to a higher ceiling on compensation using that model, and I think the Jets ceiling is pretty high with a motivated Rodgers at QB. I want to apply the bird in hand concept: give me a #1 this year and make 2024 conditional on whatever. Actually dont care. Give me a #1 for the player that could put you in the SB. Period. Without him - you wont win your Division..again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might come out of it better with a #4 FRP instead of #13. Does Aaron Rodgers have trade veto written into his contract? His trade veto is telling the other team that he won't play for them, and it is 100% effective. I don't know why so many fans want to ignore that reality. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's playing next year no matter who he's traded too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, not at all. It was Love, Rodgers declined play and contract. Maybe, a little bit, his exhausting ways didn't help Yes, dude is getting weird Your thoughts? Add your own category if you choose. None of these is completely right. All of them played a part. Rodgers is like a fat, lazy ex-husband who gets pissed because he knows the divorce was his fault, but goes on a diet for a year to trap some other chick he can get fat and lazy with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see that. My issue is if Hackett sucks as a playcaller or injuries hit, or other teams in the AFC rise up, none of those are a direct issue of the asset being traded. The compensation should be for the asset being traded, not solely on how the collective team does. I'm not sure NYJ are far and away the best team in the division. In the mix for sure, but Buffalo, Miami are right there. Buffalo, Miami, Cincinnati, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Jacksonville, KC, LAC..... that's 9 teams Let's hypothetically lock in KC, Cincy and Jacksonville as the other division winners. Leaves Buffalo, Miami, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, LAC and NYJ fighting for 4 spots. AFC East might be toughest division with NE as their 4th.

Nope nothing to do with this. Rodgers has been an excellent face of the franchise. No, not at all. It was Love, Rodgers declined play and contract. This is probably the main reason. Love has improved. Rodgers didn't have a great year but he was playing hurt. The contract was written in such a way that it was logical they were going to trade him this year. Also Packers don't have the horses or cap space to run it back again and try to win a SB. Maybe, a little bit, his exhausting ways didn't help Yes, dude is getting weird Rodgers is not getting weird. Often misunderstood by those who don't follow him and just read press clippings. Dude is a smart cat. Your thoughts? Add your own category if you choose.

Rodgers will play until he can't do it at a high level. He has said that repeatedly. Personally I think he can play another 2-3 years at a high level. The uncertainty does reduce it somewhat that's why 2024 pick needs to be conditional. I'm not sweating that as I strongly believe he'll be back in 2024.

If he was 90% on retiring this season, I think it's sooner vs later. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was 90% retiring going back to Green Bay. The Jets are a different story and a different motivation for him. Yes. he very well could play 1 year and bail, or go on and play in 2024.
