I think my one win for the Cardinals might have been generous.

Way too early Record Predictions!

Jets miss the playoffs. But the Lions finally make it back, though they still don't win the division. But again, these are "WAY TOO EARLY PICKS" which will probably be revised in the coming months.

NFL: "We're going to give the Broncos a lot of prime time games!"
Well that went poorly...
NFL: "Wanna see us do it again?!"

No but if you were in that position, then you would know if it influenced your vote. And if it did, the ethical thing to do would be to recuse yourself from the case. And if not, then not.

Yes, but Clarence Thomas has shown himself to be anything but ethical. He didn't recuse himself from cases regarding January 6th, which his wife was involved in. I don't know about you, but I'm uncomfortable with having someone in a position of power who is married to someone who involved a seditious plot to overthrow the duly elected President of the United States. But I guess I'm just a bit more patriotic.

What if you were a billionaire's friend? Would it be fair to ask you to turn down gifts just because you held a high office, even though you weren't influenced by those gifts at all?

Can you prove it didn't influence their vote?

Yes, but they won't induct him until after he's dead.

I don't think they'll do it even then. It's not about Rose anymore. It's about him being used as an example to everyone else.

This NFL suspension brought to you by FanDuel! Fan Duel, make every moment more!

How long until FanDuel lets you bet on what player will be suspended for gambling next?

Jets going to give Lamar everything when the Rodgers trade falls through, and then Lamar will play 8 games, and get a career ending injury. Just Jets Things

Jets want a championship so bad, they're willing to settle for being off season champs.

Which is why this is absolutely politically motivated. Is it morally correct to do it anyways? Yes, but it is absolutely politically motivated. My guess if this was Elon musk doing the same thing it never would have gotten this far.

John Edwards was indicted.

Nah weapon breaking adds nothing of value to a game like Bloodborne. In BotW the entire combat system is based around it.

I don't think it really is though. I beelined straight for the master sword as soon as I could and enjoyed the game a lot more after getting it. Otherwise I just ignored combat unless absolutely necessary.

Jets should totally back out of the Rodgers deal and just get Lamar.

Mario 64 didn't age poorly, it was just never great. Banjo Kazooie did it better just two years later.
Double Dash is the best Mario Kart
Mario Supersluggers is the best Mario Sports game (and it's a damn shame we haven't got another one)

Jets want to be offseason champs so bad.

The longer I live, the more thing I see in real life that make me realize Ace Attorney wasn't as unrealistic as I initially thought it was.

This is how I feel about Captain Planet.

As often as I feel the need to.

Like... there's no set interval. I'm not counting in my head "one one thousand, two one thousand, three one thousand... look,"

If the Packers are willing to walk away with nothing, then they have nothing to lose. Rodgers retires or sits on the bench. If the Jets walk away without Rodgers... who do they go into 2023 with? Zac Wilson? Fans won't be very understanding unless Wilson has a historic turnaround. Taking a QB with 13 is just gambling on another QB. Their best choice then becomes signing... Carson Wentz.

I mean the average QB height is 6'3, so I feel like that's not really saying much.

The Draft coming up! Which QB goes first? And who else takes a QB? I'd guess the Texans and Colts at the very least. (And the Panthers, obviously)

Herbert won 57 minutes of a playoff game!

Actually won 60 minutes of a playoff game. Jags won that one as time expired.

Leonhart4 posted...

8th best is still way better than worst QB in the AFC. The Jets don't necessarily need Rodgers to be the best QB in the AFC to win anyway.

True. But I feel the AFC is so stacked these days that giving up draft picks for a QB who won't be there in a couple years still isn't the best option. If they win a super bowl, it'll be worth it. But I don't see that happening.

Crescent-Moon posted...

And let's not delude ourselves, he'd be no better than the 6th or 7th best QB in the AFC, but he'd act like he was their god and demand to be treated as such.

I'd say 8th. (In no order, cause I don't feel like ordering: Tua, Allen, Burrow, Jackson, Lawrence, Mahomes, Herbert) But there's a pretty big gap between 8th and 9th.

And all those players have one thing in common: They're under 30. Rodgers definitely makes the Jets better, but the picks that will be traded to get him would have played longer than he will, and I don't see the Jets winning more than one playoff game barring serious injuries on other teams.

I tried playing The Zodiac Age. Could not get even to Vaan. Game had potential, but the gameplay is kind of boring. I thought "Maybe I'll give it another shot." Glad I got it on sale.

Leonhart4 posted...

Also for the record, even Rodgers' worst seasons are better than any season any Jets QB has ever had from an advanced metrics perspective, so even if he's not what he was, he's an improvement.

Sure, but they're also giving up draft picks for a guy who'll produce maybe two years. Rodgers is better than what they've had, but... Derek Carr would be too. And he wouldn't have cost draft picks. Unless the compensation is really low (and I doubt it, given they haven't worked it out yet) I feel like it's trading the future for a very small shot at a Lombardi.

What's going to really be a disappointment is when Aaron Rodgers doesn't announce what he's going to do, and instead announces his new NFT and then we have to spend the next six weeks talking about what Aaron Rodgers is going to do.

Leonhart4 posted...

Having to roll out Zach Wilson again next year definitely has greater disaster potential

In the short term, maybe. But I'm not so sure about the long term. Would've been much better to have just signed Derek Carr honestly.

Crescent-Moon posted...

This has all the makings of entering the pantheon of Jets failures and I'm.. Kinda hoping it does.

But is it a bigger failure if they get Aaron Rodgers or if they don't?

If the Jets want to make a splash, just make a play for Lamar Jackson. Probably cost less than signing a bunch of aging free agents to satisfy a 39 year old QB that is on the decline.

I'm starting to think the Jets are so inept that even if they had gotten the first pick in 2021 they still would've taken Zach Wilson.

Aaron Rodgers official Wish list:
-Allen Lazard
-Jordy Nelson
-Odell Beckham Jr.
-Antonio Brown
-Terrell Owens
-Mercedes Lewis
-Davante Adams
-Randall Cobb
-Greg Jennings

Jets sign Allen Lazard. 4 years/$44M

They so badly want Aaron Rodgers to be their Matthew Stafford.

All Rodgers gives to the Jets is a chance to win a playoff game, and that's about it. The AFC is going to be tough, and a 39 year old QB isn't the answer. You've got Mahomes, Burrow, Lawrence, Allen, Tua, Herbert and Jackson in the AFC. I'm not saying they're unbeatable. They're not. But a 39 year old QB isn't the answer for success. And when you've got Tua and Allen in your division? Jets doing Jets things I guess.

Jets also looking into signing Marcedes Lewis.

The Jets QB info we've all been waiting for!

Sam Darnold to the 49ers!

Glad the Packers and Jets don't play each other next year so if it happens, they don't decide "Hey! Let's make Green Bay vs NYJ a prime time game!" like they did Russell Wilson vs the Seahawks.

Rodgers to Jets is a done deal. (At least according to Trey Wingo)

The movie did so many things poorly.

Hot Take: Manfred Von Karma isn't that great of aProsecutor. Great villain, but not a great prosecutor.

Stafford on the trade block.

Well at least the Jets have a backup plan if Rodgers doesn't want to go there!

Hey, it worked out for the Rams! Granted the Rams are in the NFC and the competition was basically Jimmy G and AARP Tom Brady, while the Jets are in the AFC and the competition is Josh Allen, Tua, Trevor Lawrence, Mahomes, Joe Burrow, and Justin Herbert. Jets do have quite a bit of talent, though. Probably Rodgers best bet at winning another playoff game.

Leonhart4 posted...

I get the injury concerns, but the risk is worth the reward when you've already seen how good he can be.

Depends on the team, really. Those expressing disinterest either can't afford it, or would be served poorly by going all in on a QB. Jets should probably consider it, instead of becoming the retirement home for Green Bay Packers QB's. (Jordan Love to the Jets in 15 years?!)
