Remember this folks...but before I say this maybe the tide has changed but don't forget.

The Green Bay Packers have won the most NFL championship titles with 13 (9 pre-Super Bowl era NFL championships and 4 Super Bowls,

Winners win & losers lose.....lets hope there is a new tide coming after 54 years.
Because they have no owner....
Throw Woody into the trade !!

If they keep him you think he will play? I do not at all. And they have already moved on to Jordan L. If they decide to keep him Rogers will 100% retire triggering his bonuses to be paid in full this year and the next.
If he is traded or retires, Packers will have to eat 40 million in cap. Either this season or spread over 2 seasons if retirement comes post june 1.
If he stays, they owe him $59 million this season.
Plus whatever dead cap accrues net off season.
So they save a minimum of $19 mill this year and up to 39 mill via trade or retirement .

I'm just curious as to why. Is there a timeline? I mean, other than the fans being frustrated over how long it is taking, what is the timeline? He knows the system already, and has chemistry with at least some of the WR corps. Basically, the only thing this delay does is force the Packers to decide whether they would rather have the 2023 draft compensation or whether they would rather wait until after June 1 to offset their cap hit over multiple years.
Timeline has nothing to do with it. Hate to break this to ya, but this Team is not one player away from a Super Bowl, even if that player is Rodgers. Time somebody said it, but its the truth. One Season of Rodgers. Maybe 2. For how much? Behind this O-Line? No. They are strapped for cap space, got about 16 mil or so now. Yeah I heard 10mil additional when they trade or cut Zachs favorite WR. Not exactly that enticing is it? Hope I'm wrong but this has D-E-B-A-C-L-E written all over it. Think about it from an objective standpoint and you will see what I'm talking about.

Great post. I said about as much last week. How many of these "can't miss" moments have we seen turn into dumpster fires over the decades? Exactly. This one is no different.

Maybe if this was Rodgers five years ago. Ah, who am I kidding? We'd have screwed the pooch back then, too.

I agree. We finally have a young core to build around. They swung and missed at QB but hit on all the other guys they drafted. Instead of admitting that Zach is not it they think Rodgers will bring out what is simply not there.
Instead of being patient and "changing the culture" as they put it, they go back to the "quick fix" bullshit that never works and sets the Franchise back to square one.
What really makes me Laugh is that you have Jet Fans like me, who have seen this before, are on board with this recurring nonsense. Makes as much sense as Zach being able to be "coached up."

This is all that bespectacled prick Woodys doing. I'd like smack Him in the back of the head and say "What's a Matta wit you?"

I wonder if the Giants will be better than us over the next five years.....we have a number one draft pick Qb plus an all-time great QB on our roster. They have just Jones. They have won a bunch of SB's ...who will be better over the next five years?

Will our tide turn or will winners win & losers lose.

Bigmoe see what Vegas says??????

They get $10MM in space from Davis, a similar number from Lawson, they can restructure CJ. Tons of space available. And no, I don't care about cutting Zach's favorite injury-prone drop machine.

They had a top defense last year. Acting like Rodgers would be joining the Maccagnan Jets is just wrong. This roster is FAR more stocked than previous Jets teams.

I would imagine Douglas will make sure the Jets are protected in the trade from Rodgers playing one season and retiring. The second pick will be conditional, either on the performance of the first season or on his being on the roster in the second.
