Rodgers / Jets (2024 version)

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers needs only one touchdown pass to reach 500 for his career, and his longtime friend and teammate, Davante Adams, wants to be the one to catch it.

"Obviously, I'd love to," Adams said Friday after practice. "I got 200, I got 400, so it would be dope to get 500 as well."

Rodgers is on the verge of joining Tom Brady (649), Drew Brees (571), Peyton Manning (539) and Brett Favre (508) as the only players in NFL history with 500 touchdown passes. .

"We've had some special connections in the past, so it'd be great," said Adams, who expects to play despite a hip injury from last week. "And, obviously, it would be a big, big thing for him. Not that he needs more accolades and more milestones, but you might as well keep racking them up while you can."

So how many consecutive passes will Rodgers throw to Adams?  5?  10?  15?

He did catch his 500th TD and dropped it against LA. I don't have the link.

I'm surprised he didn't do it earlier.

Rodgers sets an NFL record.  Most sacks of a qb.  

@wingoz:    So the report from @RapSheet is that if Aaron Rodgers comes back next season Garrett Wilson wants out. It would the most @nyjets thing ever if they thought about staying with a gonna-be 42 year old QB next season over a 24 year old WR with game breaking potential

One has game breaking potential and one has hip breaking potential.

AR on that Magic Carpet Ride aka The Jets Experience©.

Well, one is 24 and the other is 42

An ironic paradox and not just the numbers

Just the way that goofball kook would like it to be

To be fair, 42 is the answer to everything.

I'm surprised at that. I can't ever remember him wanting out.

Maybe he's going to retire

I feel like the recommendations at the end of the YouTube were saying something a little inappropriate:

Watched that last game and thought to myself on the safety, "Now who would call a longer developing pass from the 1/2-yard line?" and then I slapped myself upside the head because I knew it was Rodgers who was trying to be a hero. And then he didn't have time/couldn't pull the trigger to prevent the safety. What a day he had: two INTs (one by a lineman), safety, and a penalty for an OOB late hit. More like a Caleb day than a HOFer day.

It’s a bad day when you throw zero TDs and two interceptions, and then the backup comes in at the end and throws two TDs.

The relationship between Owner Woody Johnson and Rodgers is too damaged. pic.twitter.com/q3nXD99TlM

Sounding closer and closer to donezo.

First round draft choice

Super Bowl Champion

4 time MVP

Coach killer

Team killer

Nice resume.

Can you tell the story of the NFL without Aaron Rodgers?

Answer: NO

I knew Rodgers was washed, but I really knew he was washed there.  He had a hot read who was covered, but decided to hold onto the ball to see if the receiver came free, but never did.

A younger Rodgers would have just thrown it at the WRs feet and lived to see another down.  41 year old Rodgers has a brain fart and is too slow.

There was another play.....3rd down, he rolls to the right and has Breece Hall wide frigging open for a first down and move the sticks.....instead he throws back towards the TE middle of the field who was also wide open and his throw is at the guys feet and ends up incomplete.

His accuracy all year long has been abysmal.

Head and arm may be fine, but without leg strength he's done - at least for a  throw back across the middle. Still needs the lower body torque.

He shouldn't have skipped leg day.

I would never say his head is fine. Far from it.

Think about giving up hundreds of millions, many draft picks and your coach to be worse off than rookie bust Zach Wilson. Its hard to comprehend

Still curious if SF or Minn kick the tires on ARod

C'mon Rodgers....turn the clock back 10 years for 1 more light it up game to help get Burrow in the playoffs.

Cousins has been just as bad if  not worse.  It's almost like giving old QB's coming of achilies injuries hundreds of millions of dollars is a stupid idea.

Atlanta was stupid to pick Penix when they had given all that guaranteed money to Kirk but in the end they're in much better position than the Jets are going to be.

Yah, I wanna see my man one more time 🥰

Could anyone see this ending THIS badly for the Jets?

Holy shit, it couldn't have happened to a bigger asshole or a bigger asshole city.

Think about it, the Jets had both the offensive and defensive rookies of the year (Garrett Wilson and Sauce Gardner) and a top 5 ranked defense in 2022, and then pick up both Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams.

In 2022 they were 7-10 with Zach Wilson.  These ROY's have 2 years to get even better and they add in one of the best QB/WR tandems of all time to go along with that defense?

And yet they only manage 4 wins?  How the hell does this happen on a team stacked with talent?  If you say it's all coaching then Andy Reid needs to make more money than Mahomes.

woody is how it happens

as long as that moron owns that team it will resemble its owner

Woody doesn't play on the field.  All the pieces were there with or without Woody being a dolt.

A week or so ago 12 said his time in NY has been the best of his career.  Now he's telling Pam Oliver he fell out of love with football but fell back into it in NY.  

Fuck that guy.
