In a dialog concerning the Jets and if they’re a roughly enticing vacation spot with Aaron Rodgers within the fold subsequent yr, one FS1 pundit thinks the signal-caller is likely to be completed.
On Tuesday’s episode of “First Things First,” Chris Broussard was requested by Nick Wright why a brand new coach would need to come to New York if Rodgers is underneath heart.
Broussard mentioned he believes Rodgers shouldn’t even need to come back again for an additional go-around.
“Yeah, I think he’s done,” he mentioned. “First of all, he shouldn’t want to come back. I get it, maybe his pride. But I think he’d be smart to be like, ‘I’ve had a great career, I’m freaking 41 years old — about to be — I’ll call it quits.’”
“If any workforce that does need him, it’s going to be a workforce that’s shut. Proper, like, perhaps he can get us over the hump. However the Jets have expertise and he didn’t get them over the hump, clearly. And Inexperienced Bay was 13-3 the yr earlier than they felt his final yr there. And as quickly as he leaves they change into a great playoff workforce.
“And so he’s not going to make a team better at this point in his career because he’s never been a good leader, never had the intangibles. And now that he’s not a super human quarterback, he doesn’t override those negatives anymore.”
It’s been a tough yr for Gang Inexperienced and Rodgers, who sit at 3-7 after a blowout loss to the Cardinals in Week 10.
NFL.com now has the Jets with only a 15 % likelihood to make the playoffs with seven video games left within the season.
Whereas Rodgers ranks tenth within the league in passing yards (2,258 yards), he’s twenty ninth in completion proportion (62.4), twenty first in yards per completion (10.3) and twenty third in passer score (86.8).
The quarterback admitted on “The Pat McAfee Show” on Tuesday that the workforce has been “inconsistent,” and it’s on them to get issues rotated.
“You have to hold on to that beautiful thing in life called hope,” Rodgers mentioned on the present. “We aren’t mathematically eliminated. There is a lot to play for. At the end of the day, the one thing that we can play for, whether we are 10-0 or 3-7, is pride. Pride in your performance and pride in the product you are putting on the field.”
