Rogers wanted things his way.
And right now I’m trying to struggling to come up with a team that makes sense for him.
We’re going to talk about some quarterback spots, but the open seats to me are the Titans, Browns, Giants, Jets, Raiders, Steelers, in some way, shape or form.
And then you.
He’s 41 when the season would begin, and he came off a season where he’s bottom 10 in every metric of the metrics that count, I should say, not just total passing yards, but it’s just to me it’s a little messy with even him finding a landing spot, especially when you’re considering the personality of Aaron Rodgers.
It’s impossible.
If Aaron’s still gonna do the thing where I’m coming to your franchise and I’m gonna rate.
Whatever prospects we have of adding coaches or receiver talent or offensive linemen, I’m gonna rate my friendship score uh who I want to join the team, which is how you end up with Nate Hackett and 47-year-old Randall Cobb and Alan Lazard who can’t catch a thing or get open anymore.
Who’s gonna give Aaron that power?
You’d be crazy to do that at this point, you know.
He’s been so accustomed to this over the past couple of years that if you don’t give him his power, he’s gonna cause some problems for you.
And at this point, it’s, it’s just not worth the trouble.
He’s not good enough anymore.
So, uh, I would just suggest, Aaron, go on, you’ve already accustomed to podcast mics.
Go ahead, set yourself up with the in-home studio, keep it moving that way.
Honestly, I, I would love for him to do media stuff in the sense, cause when he talks ball, he’s awesome at it.
But he’s so good at breaking down stuff he likes and why this, this and this.
He broke down Todd Bowles’s defense once and I was just like, oh, this is great.
But he doesn’t want to just talk ball because he wants to be known as more than just a football player.
The only team I even brought up was the Browns if they decide not to go down the young quarterback path, but it’s like, haven’t the Browns been through enough?
It’s a bunch of band-aids for bullet holes for him and for whatever team they might end up with.
