$18,512,500 per play. Holy hell this man ruins everything he touches

it's either that or he is Robin Hood and going to hand out all his rapings from the NFL after his career is over.

I dislike Aaron Rodgers, but even I feel really bad for him and feel terrible for Jets fans. This is absolutely devastating for a lot of people who haven’t had a great deal of sports success.

It's shocking, that's for sure. The guy won back to back MVP's very recently. He moves to a new team with a ton of excitement. The whole thing implodes with an injury on his first drive of the season. Career probably over. Snap of the fingers and it's gone.

I would go so far as to say it might be the most rollercoaster-ish devastating injury any fan base has ever experienced given the circumstances. Terrible if you love football too as the Jets were going to be a lot of fun to watch.

I am sad about it today and I’m not a Jets fan. Can’t imagine what it’s like for the true die hards

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.

Yeah when I was trying to think of an instance like this I could only come up with Montana's concussion in the afc championship game but that wasn't 4 plays into that game let alone the season.

We had Krieg on that 93 team who had led the Chiefs to the playoffs with a 10-6 record the season before, so we wouldn’t have been in such dire straits. One thing Marty was good at was winning with backup QB’s, at least in the regular season.

You don't ever feel bad for that magnanimous douchebag. EVER. imagine if Mahomes acted like that. We would all be appalled (well most of us).

And I'm not sure I feel bad for the fans either. J-E-T-S JETS! JETS! JETS! It's rather annoying.

Maybe Woody will reconsider putting natural grass in that stadium now. Would have been a lot cheaper.

It will be interesting if Rodgers indeed has torn his Achillies.

For one thing, Zach Wilson now has a massive opportunity when it looked like he was dead in NYC---and probably no future as an NFL starter.

Can he take advantage of it?

If Zach Wilson does what most expect and he craps the bed, do you now try to pick up Trey Lance from the Cowboys before the trading deadline?
