No More Excuses for Aaron Rodgers on Sunday Night
Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets are set to play in their second consecutive primetime game, this time on Sunday Night Football against the Pittsburgh Steelers. So far, the Jets are 0-2 on Monday Night this year, 1-0 on Thursday, and hoping to win the first of 2 Sunday night games this season. They are also in the midst of a three-game losing streak where in all 3 games they had the ball at the end of the game with a chance to drive down the field and win.
Against the Broncos, they had 1:27 to drive 60 yards for a touchdown. They stalled out at the 32-yard line (28 yards gained) and Greg Zuerlein missed the 50-yard field goal that would’ve won the game. Media and fans alike ripped Robert Saleh and Nathaniel Hackett and they were certainly under fire when the team rolled into London to face the Vikings.
Against the Vikings, they had 3:07 to drive 70 yards for a touchdown. Aaron Rodgers missed Garrett Wilson on this wide-open opportunity that almost certainly would’ve resulted in a touchdown. Then, five plays later, he threw his third interception of the day and lost the game. The pass was intended for Mike Williams, but not too much was made of that; it was more about the play-calling and penalties that plagued the team throughout the game. Saleh was fired 48 hours later, and Hackett was stripped of play-calling duties.
Against the Bills, they had 3:43 to drive 70 yards for a touchdown. Rodgers went 3-6 on his passes, the Jets traveled 30 yards, and then Rodgers threw an interception to lose the game. This pass was intended for Mike Williams, and with no Saleh to blame, the fanbase roared that Mike was terrible. The team traded for Davante Adams that night.
For three straight games, Aaron Rodgers has had the chance to create the magic that we’ve seen all-time greats like Brady, Manning, and even Mahomes make time and time again, but all three of them have ended in disaster. The Head Coach has been fired, the play-caller demoted, and now his most prolific pass-catching teammate, arguably of all time, is 100% healthy and ready to go this Sunday. If the New York Jets lose, who is left to blame?
Sure, Tyron Smith has been letting him get killed a few times per game, but it’s the NFL – every Quarterback is going to get touched. With Davante, Garrett, and the current NFL leader in TD receptions Allen Lazard, I’d argue Rodgers has the best WR trio in the league at his disposal. His defense has also allowed 24+ points once in six games. There are no more excuses. Don’t put the game on Greg Zuerlein’s leg because he clearly isn’t what he used to be. Utilize the most talented skill position collection in the league and let’s see you throw 300 yards for the first time in almost three years (Nov. 2021).
Is Aaron Rodgers washed? We know he’s not in his absolute prime but it has looked at points like he still has enough in the tank to be a damn good QB. Now with all of the excuses either neutralized or diminished, let’s see if Aaron truly can still be considered great in 2024. Let’s go Jets

So…pardon me to all of the “true” football fans of this mostly retarded nation…but ANYONE hitching their wagon to this one hit wonder star of yesteryear should just do as so many in his former teams state does…eat cheese, brats, consume way too much booze…then whine when he chokes and then hit a phone pole driving back home. I’m openly admitting to NOT being a expert in football…but that should prove my point soon…other than living near green bay and Waupaca for almost 10 years! He’s no Favre. He WAS decent. I LOATHE Brady! I was honestly pulling 4 him more than once since 2012! My point being to others who watch games more…he’s an excuse ridden, whine ass ,LUCKY POS who surprisingly got the one title he got. For that, I fully commend. But even with my lack of knowledge in this sport…how can ANYONE still believe in this CLOWN? Even with a big titty hippie girlfriend and a DMT retreat recently enough…he still only offers his same regular outcomes…excuses, tantrums, minimal results yet expects top tier salary. It still boggles my mind how many packers fans would get butt hurt when I would bring up my observations as a non football “expert”! Sorry Wisconsin and Rodgers fans…I loathe Brady and patriots as well, but come on…your dynasty is gone again 4 a while! If I can tell he’s a lucky flash in the pan…and the smoke has long since blown away…why smell this guy’s rear end ego and listen to his verbal diarrhea any longer?? If he was onstage 100 years ago…the hook would have long ago pulled him stage LEFT 😆!
Sometimes a GREAT passer…but in my usual observations…his best passes have usually been to the OTHER teams! Rodgers….GOAT INTERCEPTION MACHINE! RETIRE already dweeb, or at least, shut up and show some ACTUAL results!
