These contracts are getting ridiculous !! 

Why?  Do you think the owners deserve the money over the players who sacrifice their bodies and are the ones fans come to see?  In a sport the generates billions of dollars (just signed another billio dollar tv so much for the BS of the nfl being in trouble), players deserve every penny. Especially a guy who makes your team an instant SB contender every year.

Hmmm...

 Or

 He is possibly the best QB over the past 13 years or so?

 

 somewhere in between perhaps?

 

Fragile?

no. not that at all.

 

For sure he’s been a HOF great but we are talking about 2018 going forward

 

i guess it was just an illusion he only played 7 games last year.  Or did you take a nap all last season? Zzzzzzzzzzzz....

 

he’s one hit from retiring

Tom Brady is better than Aaron Rodgers.  This is what they will say 20 years from now.  

 

Why?  Brady was smart enough to take less money or structure his money in a way to have better teams that compete for championships year in and year out. 

 

Rodgers will be the Dan Marino of the late 10s.  Great quarterback on an otherwise mediocre team that will struggle to get in the playoffs.

Doesn't Brady make more money of endorsements than his NFL contact at this point?  I think someone said that in the past.

 

 

Edit: just looked it up.  7m in endorsements vs 20m contract.  NVM.

His wife is also a billionaire.  And I bet he had some shady deal with Kraft under the table,

Every player is one hit from retiring.  Josh Allen missed a season in college with an injury.

Did you watch that hit btw,

I only watch the Bills honestly. But i do follow up on Monday with the rest of the league.
Thought Rodgers injury was not one that suggested frail, or injury prone.

I'm sure he's got some stock in the Patriots franchise that he's collecting on from Kraft or other investments.  I could only hope he ends up going there Kendricks route though.

 

Not that it would matter because like you said, his wife had got him covered.

Packers front office hasn't shown ability to make smart free agency signings so why take a reduced rate in the hope that they suddenly do to build a Super Bowl winner?  I have no problem with him getting as much as he can get as he's the best all round QB in the league.

He broke his collarbone.

It's not like he was playing with nagging injuries.

Dude is the goat.

He's also tough and works his tail off.

Aaron Rodgers carted off the field already...

Fragile?  He’s not had an injury prone career.  He’s had two seasons with injuries.

 

Hes missed about the same amount of games in his career to injury as Tom Brady.

 

Did you see what he did after coming back to the game after being carted off?
