There's no doubt that he's going to have major issues with the NY media the moment something goes south.
He has such a thin skin. He gets so insulted by everything. NY is NOT the right market for him. Playing in the middle of nowhere for his whole career shielded him from what he's about to go through. If they don't win right away, this will blow up.
that Green Bay was looking for a couple of firsts. That's kind of crazy considering Rodgers' salary and age. I think the Jets would do better working out something with Lamar.
the Giants tend to do well when they fly under the radar and the Jets become the back page circus. Let Schoen and Daboll keep building the team that they like for an extended run and have the Jets hot shot an attempt at a playoff run to get bounced in the 2nd round and see Rodgers retire.
Still pissed that Packers drafted Love in 2020 without consulting with him. Get over it dude. It’s a business where you Rodgers have made boat loads of money.
NYC media get ready for Rodgers frenzy.
making up stories. What he’s saying right now is better than 99% of the shit we hear athletes say.
I love Rodgers. I probably wouldn't love the distraction on my team? But he's truly an original character and he entertains me.
Just look at the responses here. No one seems to care that apparently all the reports about him demanding players is false. He said he told Adam schefter to “delete my number” because anything he says is going to be twisted.
IMO the league needs more Rodgers’ not less. No one but the players are held accountable is sports and he thinks that’s bullshit. I agree.
No, he doesn’t have “the right” to be an asshole just because he WAS great at football.
That makes me laugh. Back to back MVP's in 20-21 and last year was a down year for Rodgers at 3600 yards, 26 TD's and 12 INT's. Which is still better than Daniel Jones has had at any point in his career and we just paid him top 10 money. That's not a shot at DJ. Just facts.

Was wondering when someone would bring up Jones.
I couldn’t stand Aaron Rodgers the football player
Because of our battles with him in the TC-Eli era, but I’ve come to love him as a public figure.
He thinks for himself, isn’t going to bow down to what’s publicly accepted and generally doesn’t give a shit what people think. I totally respect him for that.
from the football implications to the ahitbird reporters getting called out to people freaking the hell out every time Rodgers opens his mouth, to be very entertaining.

It's an easy comp on a player we are all very familiar with.
I have no problem with him being different than most NFL players
in his mindset or topics he is interested in. But he is full of it too. 90% on his way to retirement? I think we all know that was never the case. On no planet was he going to leave 50+ mil on the table and have to share his HOF spotlight with Tom Brady. As for the demands - I don't think he demanded anything but those names weren't pulled out of nowhere. I'm sure he made it quite clear he would like those guys added with him - so semantics there. Whatever though. He will get bounced in the playoffs like he always does. I hate the jets and always have. Hope they never win a thing.
Someone said it best yesterday ... AAron has a very impressive resume
about all the huge wins Rodgers has had in the post season. He's 12-10 in the playoffs and has lost a couple of home NFC championship games. He gagged again last year losing at home in a must win game against the Lions. $50 mill a year and multiple draft picks for Rodgers? The Jets will be set back another five years with this dumbass move.
Were you impressed with Rodgers when he played the Giants in England ? He does not seem to be the player he was. I saw a significant decline last year.
He missed a lot of open receivers and was harried by the rush.
Rodgers injured his hand on the last play of the game so there were no excuses.
If the Jets don't improve their O-line I fear that it could be a long season for fans.
but I'll be very curious to see what the Jets end up surrendering (and being forced to take onto their roster) to accommodate Rodgers. Maybe this will result in a playoff berth, but I can't see this being good for them in the long run. Classic Jets, mortgaging the future for an uncertain today.
After the Giants owning the "clown show" label for a few years, I'm glad it's back to Gang Green where it rightfully belongs.
Yes Rodgers is a weirdo but him on that jets team is going to be really good. Us giants fans are just going to have to accept a jets team that actually might be Super Bowl contenders if everything goes right and they stay healthy

Santonio Holmes, Chris Johnson, Ladanian Tomlinson, Brett Favre, Aaron Rodgers, Leveon Bell... the list goes on an on of all the flashy names the jets have brought in over the years who were on the downside of their career or flat out washed. Inept franchise.

LOL. Anyways, back to reality.
So, for one year, Rodgers will just continue to NOT win Championships, but as a Jet, instead of a Packer.

Kinda hard when he’s a media whore and always in the news.
I love Rodgers. I probably wouldn't love the distraction on my team? But he's truly an original character and he entertains me.
If he's a "drama queen", he's got every right to be.
Works out for the Packers as they can move Love right into the starting role with those young receivers and those running backs.

a couple years at Cal without graduating after a Juco year is more "Deep Thoughts by Jack Handey" then a modern Day Ezra Pound
Who am I to judge, just a Joe Schmoe poster on BBI
Fireman Ed may have to give him this cheer if he tries this in NY:
"D-B-A-G Douche, Douche, Douche!!"
I hope you guys are right - we play these fucks this year too.
My next hope - jets f up their roster and cap.

Green Bay has little to no leverage either.

takes the Jets for everything they have. The Jets are literally pot-committed at this point

They could just not trade him and either force him to play or retire. That's leverage
