Aaron Rodgers MVP

[sschind]

Well, no excuse except for their 2-4 start, lol.
Looking at last season there were two 10-7 teams to make it from the AFC (Texans, Steelers) and the rest were 11-6 or better.
We did have a couple of 9-8 teams over on our side....

But realistically they will need to go 7-4 over the remainder of the season and that's the absolute best case scenario. More likely they will probably need to go 8-3 or even 9-2 to make it in. Even with Adams that may be a tall order.

(And that's not even meant to be a pro/anti Rodgers post. I just don't think this is a very good team in general and while he has his moments of brilliance still I don't think Rodgers is the guy to drag a mediocre team to the playoffs at this point)

I'm glad you clarified it with "at this point" because he's been known to do it before.

This is like watching your X run into relationship problems. I mean.. you love them and want the best for them.. but it’s OH SO FUN!

Adams will still draw double coverage in NY so Wilson & Lazard will be more open with more targets, now. AR will force a few to Adams each game but the others benefit.

Yes. #17 makes everyone around him better, including Rodgers (by his own testimony). The Jets have still got some things to clean up such as Tyron Smith at LT. However there’s ways to aid that issue.

As far as Receivers, the Jets are now locked and loaded.
Lazard is currently at #21 in receiving yards across the NFL. He’s pacing 1,002 yards and 14 TD’s.

In the seasons where WR, Mike Williams has played at least 13 contests (5) he’s averaged 892 yards and 4.5 TD’s, reaching 1,000+ twice.

The Jets also have a good TE in Conklin. Plus we are all familiar with Breece Hall. In his first FULL NFL season (2023) he posted 1,565 All purpose and he’s poised to repeat that again pacing 1,456 All-purpose yards in 2024.

Then you pair up Davante with Garrett? Thats a ton of firepower. Aaron likely won’t win MVP, but watching that game the Jets should’ve beat the Bills. As sloppy as they were they were, they went toe to toe with a very good football team and nearly upset Buffalo.

If only Prima Donna Rodgers had bothered throwing a football at Lazard every now and then back on 1-22-22, in the divisional playoff game against the San Franciscoes. He was wide open for a big gain on that 3rd and 11 where Rodgers completely ignored every receiver not named "Adams", and tried to force it in to Davante sandwiched between double coverage. And Lazard just stood there watching the end of Green Bay's playoff run all by himself, with no Niner anywhere nearby to keep him company.

From the instant that ball was snapped, Adams was the only human being in the stadium to whom Rodgers was even going to consider throwing the football, no matter how the routes developed, and the Packers watched the NFCCG and Super Bowl on TV instead of seeing it from the field. But now, all of a sudden he likes Lazard.

A couple years too late, hotshot.

That one hurt. Maybe we do not win the SB but we should have gotten there.
