Kolek planning to go pro
I know the popular narrative is that Rodgers can pick and choose where he goes. The reality is Rodgers is under contract with the packers for 2022 and the Packers decide where he goes. Rodgers only choices are if he wants to play or not. If say, the Raiders come up with a significantly better package than Broncos, the Packers are trading him to the Raiders. As far as Rodgers and Adams going to the same team? It is highly unlikely any team would have that much draft capital to get that done without destroying their team.
I thought that was part of the “new contract.” That he had some say where he’d go. Unless that was some misinformation.He could theoretically threaten to hold out for any team that isn’t the Broncos.
I don't understand why people would be excited about the new GM hire, then criticize his first big decision. Can anyone actually articulate a reason why the Bears shouldn't hire Eberflus?
Rodgers has way more leverage than you are stating here. In the above scenario, all he would have to do is say "I'm not going to the Raiders," and the deal is off.If Rodgers says "I would like to play for Denver or else I am going to retire," the Packers would try to make that work. You want to get draft picks for the guy or do you want to get nothing out of spite?
I'm not crazy about the Tampa 2. His defense gave up 26 points and could stop the terrible Jaguars in a put up or shut up game to make the playoffs to end the season. Looking at the advanced statistics and rankings, his defense didn't do much to wow me this past season.
Two words: Justin FieldsDefense isn’t the Bears’ problem. Getting a creditable offense is.Same old Bears. Should be renamed the Chicago Dinosaurs.
Of course the Packers would try to make that work, but they are not going to be strong armed into taking significantly less. It has nothing to do with spite. They will get the best deal they can. Under your scenario the Packers would call his bluff just like they did this year. The most likely scenario is Rodgers is back next year and they extend him another 2.
Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisberger, Phil Rivers, Josh Allen and Russell Wilson all agree that it's impossible for a QB to develop under a head coach who came from the defensive side of the ball.
The only difference is only 1 of those QBs was under a first time HC.
So, after spending the last couple of weeks railing against the Bears over the potential hire of a previous head coach like Caldwell, the problem with Eberflus is that he's a first-time HC?Damned if you do ...
I literally laid out my issues with Eberflus in a previous post. But keep being contrarian for effect
Well, I wasn't going to point this out earlier, but since you insist ... contrary to your earlier post, Bill Belichick was not a first-time head coach when Brady played for him.
If Aaron Rodgers thinks he's going to go to the AFC and outduel Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Justin Herbert, and Lamar Jackson when he can't even outplay a banged up Jimmy Goropolo, more power to him.
Broncos got picks.
This is precisely why the time to move him is now if you’re the packers
Aaron Rodgers and this year's 2nd round pick for Justin Herbert.Keep Adams... win Super Bowl.Laugh hysterically, forever.
Why would the Chargers trade their young franchise QB who just made a Pro Bowl for 1 or 2 seasons of an aging QB and a late second rounder? All of their best skill players are under 30. Their window isn’t closing
Getsy might wind up as Bears OC.
