I actually like Rodgers for some dumb reason. it sucks that his career is likely over from an injury in the first game. it sucks for jets fans for sure.
although i gotta respect Rodgers getting a gigantic payday for like basically doing nothing. occean's 11's shit right there [Reply]

He was also douchy about that in Green Bay and didn’t care how his contract impacted the team. I think he’s changed a bit in nyj because he wants to prove he can. Which also makes me think he’ll give it another year. This reminds me of Mariano Rivera getting hurt shagging fly balls in the outfield in a ****around. He planned for that to be his final season then returned for 1 more. I don’t think this is how legends want to be sent off [Reply]
Rodgers could still come back...I'd think it's be hard for a guy like him to have his career end like this. The jets are built to win minus a QB.
He'd leave 38 mill on the table [Reply]

He already did. He gave up a ton of money.

IDK man isn't that like a really hard injury to come back from, like rehabbing and everything? 40 is already pushing it as far as longevity even for a QB. It'd be crazy if he came back though. Hope he does but can't blame him at all if he doesn't. [Reply]

It's not that bad to recover from. I had mine repaired and was back in the gym squatting 6 weeks post op. No rehab other than stretching. I was two years younger than Rogers when I had mine but he has access to better doctors and PT than anyone here.
I was still able to run a 4.8s 50M after recovery. [Reply]

Not many people are going to feel sorry for Rodgers after his drama queen, I don't like the coach, I don't like the draft picks, I don't know if I want to play next year or not... the me-first act year in and year out in Green Bay. [Reply]
Not a very good return on investment doing a Darkness Retreat obviously. Being stuck in a cold outdoor shitter for however many days you'd think you'd get a sign from the feetball gods.

You don't ever feel bad for that magnanimous douchebag. EVER. imagine if Mahomes acted like that. We would all be appalled (well most of us).
And I'm not sure I feel bad for the fans either. J-E-T-S JETS! JETS! JETS! It's rather annoying. [Reply]
