CEH, Skyy, & Gabbert for Breece Hall and Hardman :-) [Reply]
Aaron Rodgers' season-ending injury impacted the entire New York Jets offense, but perhaps none more than Garrett Wilson.
The second-year wide receiver was primed for a breakout season with Rodgers under center, and the four-time MVP quarterback apologized to Wilson after tearing his Achilles on the team's first drive of a Week 1 win over the Buffalo Bills.
"At halftime I just went in to check on him in the training room and just make sure I gave him a hug and told him I love him," Wilson said on 98.7 FM ESPN New York. "It really hurt my heart. He told me 'sorry, kid' and said he loved me back and that was it. Just truly heartbroken." [Reply]

Welp.....guess he's just gonna have to force a trade to KC then. It's the only way. [Reply]

The play was a quick slant to Rodger’s left. Three steps, plant and throw. The LT throws a cut block so the DE drops his hands and hopefully goes down to create a better throwing lane. On the play in question the WR was wide open and Rodgers didn’t throw it for some reason. [Reply]

Because the LT completely whiffed on his cut thus making the rusher in Rodgers throwing lane. [Reply]

Today on the radio, Tim Grunhard talked about what it would have been like if 4 plays into the 1993 season, Joe Montana had been injured and out for the year & possibly never play again, and that made me have empathy for Jets fans.
Because, honestly, Rodgers is kinda just an unlikable asshole who happens to be an NFL quarterback, and because he has a shit personality I didn't really feel bad for Jets fans at all, but old number 61 gave me a different perspective. [Reply]

:-) What is it with all the narcissistic love bombs to Aaron Rodgers? [Reply]
