It seems like a very high risk surgery that could either work or be totally awful. Quote

The SpeedBridge repair he reportedly had hasn't been done on an NFL QB and resulted in return in 3 months I think if you peek at the Jets schedule it's almost predictable how this all plays out. He said he's aiming for the December 24th game against the Commanders. However, they also have a Thursday game scheduled after that. So, it will be "Doctor didn't think it was smart to play 2 games in 4 days" type excuse. Then they will use the "There was no reason to bring him back for the final 2". But he will still go on McAfee and say he was fully cleared and good to go and that his methods were better than the sports science. Because of course he will. Quote

What’s the point of returning this year in this bad team in a lost year? To prove signing isn’t a complete disaster? Quote

To prove signing isn’t a complete disaster? I can see a few reasons. Kind of a "preview of next year"? Something to show FAs in the off-season? Rodgers wanting to prove medical science wrong. Maybe try and show what a Hackett led offense looks like with Rodgers in it and try to save his job? I mean, that's a few but I don't see any GOOD reason to do it. But the Jets and good reasoning are rarely used together for a reason. 2 Quote

Jets are too dumb to fire Hackett. How good is he going to look anyway--he hasn't played a game in almost a yea at that pint (can barely jog right now). Potentials FA's don't want to watch an old QB struggling to hold onto former glory on a really bad team. 1 Quote

EmotionallyUnstable Posted November 25, 2023 Posted November 25, 2023 I’m sure he and his giant bags of money feel just terrible Quote
Just in Atlanta Posted November 25, 2023 Posted November 25, 2023 He should feel guilty about bringing Nate Hackett to NY. Quote

Broncos were last in 3rd down conversions last year at 29% and are at 38% this year and 38% in 2021. This year the Jets are at 24%, 5% below anybody else. Even last year the Jets were at 34%. He didn't even call plays in Green Bay. There's a lot of data that says Hackett is terrible at play calling. They have to fire him. Aaron Rodgers isn't going to walk away from all that money.

boater Posted November 25, 2023 Posted November 25, 2023 Rodgers feels guilt..? He would be a good Catholic if it weren't for the Ayahuasca. Quote
Luka Posted November 26, 2023 Posted November 26, 2023 Imagine trying to get right in your NFL career at QB and Nathaniel Hackett is calling the plays. Like trying to win a 40 yard dash with no legs. Quote
Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted November 26, 2023 Posted November 26, 2023 I read the thread title. The first thing that came to mind was the laugh the Joker emits as he enters the crime bosses meeting in 'The Dark Knight'. 🤨 Quote
Beck Water Posted November 26, 2023 Posted November 26, 2023 (edited) Rodgers feels verklempt over not having the NY media focus he sees as his due Either that or he mis-spelt "gilt" as "guilt" since he was brought in to be the Golden Boy Edited November 26, 2023 by Beck Water Quote

He already gave away a bunch of money to JEST to have control over offense. I think Rogers decides if Hackett and even Wilson stays unless head coach is canned. Quote
BuffaloBillyG Posted November 26, 2023 Posted November 26, 2023 I saw some interesting points from Jet fans on X yesterday. Long story short, they're already turning on Rodgers. Their complaints were semi good too. They say that by him dangling the carrot of coming back this year it took away the idea of the Jets making a move for a QB like Cousins (pre injury, of course) or someone more viable. They're pissed about all the ex Packers they brought in to appease Rodgers and NONE of them have done anything at all. Also, because he "may" come back Saleh and Douglas are keeping Hackett just in case. Basically, Rodgers is holding the Jets hostage much the way he did the Packers in the off season the last few years. Packer fans are laughing hysterically at this as well. Quote

Yes, he supposedly gave up some money to get his Packer buds in but 5 out of the 6 of his players they brought in will be gone by the beginning of next season and they would get rid of All Lazzard if it wasn't for the cap hit. I don't see how they can keep an OC who has been historically bad for two seasons. Just my opinion of course. Quote
