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 Issues First,” Chris Broussard was requested by Nick Wright why a brand new coach would need to come to New York if Rodgers is underneath middle.
Broussard mentioned he believes Rodgers shouldn’t even want to return again for one more go-around.
“Yeah, I believe he’s completed,” he mentioned. “To begin with, he shouldn’t need to come again. I get it, perhaps his satisfaction. However I believe he’d be sensible to be like, ‘I’ve had an incredible profession, I’m freaking 41 years previous — about to be — I’ll name 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 grow to be a superb playoff workforce.
“And so he’s not going to make a workforce higher at this level in his profession as a result of he’s by no means been a superb chief, by no means had the intangibles. And now that he’s not an excellent human quarterback, he doesn’t override these 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 share (62.4), twenty first in yards per completion (10.3) and twenty third in passer ranking (86.8).
The quarterback admitted on “The Pat McAfee Present” on Tuesday that the workforce has been “inconsistent,” and it’s on them to get issues circled.
“You must maintain on to that lovely factor in life referred to as hope,” Rodgers mentioned on the present. “We aren’t mathematically eradicated. There’s a lot to play for. On the finish of the day, the one factor that we are able to play for, whether or not we’re 10-0 or 3-7, is satisfaction. Pleasure in your efficiency and satisfaction within the product you might be placing on the sphere.”
