Rodgers a Vike in '25?

I will watch reruns of the puppy bowl on a continuous loop before I ever watch a Rodgers led Vikings team.

Take this to the bank.
NO EFFIN WAY!

Let me offer my absolute, unconditional, and enthusiastic agreement to this post.

Lol... Jets GM just got canned. Coach was out a few weeks ago. Mess mess mess.

Rodgers is expensive and very very old. I think after canning their GM, they're at the point where they just want to start over. GM, coach, QB, scheme, cap space...just tear it up by the roots and start over. And this time do it right. Easier said than done though.

Those are all valid goals, but if you try to create a plan to achieve those goals, you run into a problem.  You can hire a GM.  You can hire a coach.  You can't just get a QB.  Sometimes the right QB is available at the time you need to get one.  By all accounts, there's not going to be a QB available to them in the draft.  Maybe a FA will be available, but I doubt Darnold's going back there.  There's one viable prospect and they're going to be drafting too late to get them, unless they want to mortgage the future and send a ton of picks.

I very much could be wrong, but my take is that they are still a fairly talented roster, but with bad coaching.  They brought in a bad OC who ended up being bad.  Then they fired the HC who was making their defense good, and now they're poorly coached on both sides of the ball.  I think the plan for them probably looks like what the Vikings did.  Try to run it back in 2025 with better coaching.  Casually get rid of the guys that aren't going to be around long term, and start to figure out how to find the next QB.

Maybe their owner hates everything about this underperforming mess, and wants to burn it down and restart from zero, but there's nothing he's done that has suggested their committed to "doing it right" as his meddling is what created this mess.  Doing it right would mean handing this off to a competent individual and letting them formulate a plan.

Rodgers as a backup? No effing way. The dude is always the main character in his mind

I think the owner wants a fresh start across the board, just a hunch by their firing the GM too.  They will have to get creative at QB cause I'm not sure they'll have a chance to draft one of the few with elite grades in this draft.

I'm reading where Woody is probably going to get offered the British Amabassador spot from Trump.

He had that post in Trumps first term. Woody may turn things over to his bros to manage day to day.

Now rumors coming out that the owner suggested benching Rodgers earlier this year!

Typical Jets. Seriously, if the league ever considered annexing a franchise, the Jets should be towards the top of that list

Just say no.
No friggin' way.
