Keying in on one receiver, take Wilson out of the game and Rodgers will be screwed. Both drives he was in were going nowhere except for penalties, and the one on the scoring drive for very lame to give. Beautiful throw for the TD, he still has those magical moments but his overall play was like last year, very frustrating. Dude should have stayed in the darkness This is a very delicate situation. He can’t be sucking without some gawdger throws mixed in. Tease them with your fading greatness, big fella, on your way to 65%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Refugee Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 This is a bold move. A bar full of WI drinkers can run up a healthy tab. https://www.wisn.com/article/brady-street-bar-will-cover-everyones-drinks-if-the-jets-lose/44931179 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ty21 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) Alright don’t attack me, I c*m in pies. I’ve been watching Aaron Rodgers and he’s seeming over the top friendly to everyone and other teams to me. Is that him or is he playing himself up because he’s on hard knocks?

But they’d have to already be pretty successful to theoretically lose thousands on a Sunday, a Sunday in which they’d likely see considerably more business than usual. It certainly is bold, and a more dangerous gamble than Mattress Mack’s bet hedging where he offers all sold mattresses in a span for free if the astros win the WS, then he bets an equivalent amount on the astros to win the WS.

Watch when the games start to count. He'll be calling teammates out on the field. He wore out his welcome here. It was time for a divorce. For his legacy, he's trying to be the perfect teammate. He gave up like 30 million (that's a guess) so they could add more players. It's Super Bowl or bust for him and he knows it. Anything short of a Super Bowl and it's a failure. If he wins the Super Bowl, I'm going with the NFL is rigged. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s genuinely a good guy in my book. Also a perfectionist with a photographic memory and likely massive trust issues with his broken family bonds and distrust of media/pharma/the Man. I have friends like that I’m still cool with but give them space on certain BS. I think most of his teammates have liked him on and off the field. Mainly, he’s still a really talented QB so if he holds up that part of the bargain, everyone on the Jets will think he’s great. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for an authentic, unbiased response to him even though you guys are all burned out on him. I personally respect him and his accomplishments, but it’s sprinkled with severe hatred. Severe hatred. It is nice that I don’t have to worry about him anymore. It was clear in his final GB game it was either retirement or another team for him.

Is that him or is he playing himself up because he’s on hard knocks? Like most of us, it's not a simple answer. There's a well documented psychological effect that anyone who's being observed changes their behavior That said, it's funny how he decided to be the anti-Favre in some respects (ints, his relationship with his successor - apparently he and JLove are still tight) but still fell into the primadonna behavior trap. I think he's in the best foot forward/honeymoon phase with the NYJ. That said, one of the reasons we (well some of us) were frustrated with Rodgers is we felt he still had the tools but wasn't putting in the work and was theaster of the passive aggressive/plausibly deniable finger point. Nothing was EVER his fault. Hell probably be great and get the Jets to the div round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His current situation fits him perfectly IMO because it's all about him. Think about it....the organization, the coaching staff, the fan base, the "dreaded media"...they're all dependent on him. He's a savior of a floundering / under performing operation. We'll see if he can change his spots on the field. I'm glad he's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uffdaswede Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 “I’m glad he’s gone” can mean different things, as in many of who can say that honestly about his departure think of him with varying amounts of respect or appreciation. For me, I say it with a grateful heart for both the memories and the timely exit. This new chapter in Packer history will be fun, like Book Three in a trilogy. And I really didn’t want Book Two to go any longer, lest the memories be scratched out by ill feelings. I saw the little media tempest stirred up by AR telling a chirping Giants linebacker “I don’t even know who you are!” I found that this made me smile because it’s truly funny and the media noise that follows is no longer our problem.

We all know that Rodgers was no longer capable of winning playoff games for us. He can get regular season wins, but when the chips are down, he folds. Especially in the cold. We were never going to have a defense good enough to carry him through those big games as he would not take anything less than a record setting deal to stay in GB. It really was time to move on. For both parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
