Update on the Vikings QB plans (out on Rodgers)

[PSUBeirut]

It is so incredibly pathetic that we are still waiting for this stupid carousel to stop spinning and spit out whatever lame old QB we can sign for too-much money.  Where is the dignity?

Dignity left the building when Mara opened his fat mouth about demanding the team win this season or else.  Now Schoen/Daboll feel like they have to squeeze every single possible win out of this group or else they're fired.  And, for reasons that remain very unclear, they seem to think Rodgers gets them an extra win that Wilson or Winston or a rookie QB would not.

Personally, I do not find him to be any better than any of the other options and he's the only one that's a card carrying lunatic.  The off the field crap that he brings with him alone should disqualify him given his age and reduced ability on the field.  If this was MVP Rodgers then maybe you put up with his BS but he's not that guy anymore and the fact that Daboll/Schoen are treating him like he is, after the GOD FORSAKEN JETS couldn't wait to be rid of him, is astonishing.

Sometimes, you have to fake it before you make it.  Schoen needs to grow a pair and tell Rodgers, "not interested" and sign a QB who is.

Gmo,

I agree with you and most of what you say in spirit. Lord knows, I haven't held back on Mara for at least this past year if not longer.

But, I'm reminded of a line from one of my favorite movies (so apropos in this moment) it went something like: "I've been so busy trying to keep my job, I forgot to do my job, well that ends today"

Just because Mara is acting like a fool, doesn't give JS/BD a pass to do everything to hold onto their jobs at the expense of building this roster for long term success. They are paid professionals like everybody else. They get paid more than 90+% of the population.

So in my mind they have NO RIGHT to make this their own personal "let's manufacture a few more wins to hold onto our jobs for another year" that is just NOT doing your job in good faith to any of us paying customers.

Let's not forget McAdoo/Reese in 2016 vs 2017 it is in large part why we're where we are today.
JS/BD need to be bigger men than that.

Couldn't agree more!

Former NFL Scout John Middlekauff believes Aaron Rodgers won't save the Giants or Steelers if he signs with either: "It does feel like we're still holding on to Rodgers at 41 years old. He doesn't want to get hit and playing in the cold like it ain't gonna work. This discussion about like could he save the Steelers or what could he do with the Giants, like nothing. He's not gonna do anything." #Steelers #NFL

There is no dignity. Just blatant desperation. They are so needy for something to give their fans that they would prostrate themselves to a diva. Who won't do anything for the long term success of the franchise. All you can do is shake your head.

This post has me laughing so loud it's comical. Listen to yourselves!!! I admit I put in the drama at times but we've got Giants' soap opera central going on here!

Whichever QB they eventually sign is inconsequential to the bigger picture here. We're talking about a bridge signing for a year, maybe two. Like a Kurt Warner, remember him?

The franchise QB "might" be selected next month or, which some are quietly hoping, next year when the crop is more plentiful.

I'm sure they have their plan in place and are only waiting for the right time to execute it.

Peace!

The soap opera is the NY Giants, Kart. They created it. It's sad to see. You are right. None of these QBs will change much for the team in 2025 which is why it is pathetic that they are bowing to one of them.

Is there anyone who hasn't been arrested in the NFL that has become more unlikeable than Aaron Rodgers in the last year or so?!?!?

To me he has become a toolshed whom I need to avoid online d/t the amount of vomit it produces in my mouth when I watch him/listen to him online.

Dude is going through a mid life crisis publicly and it's a shame he's going to have to look back at the short amount of time it took to tarnish a relatively good career that lasted for 20 years.

If you still want to be a QB in the NFL, eat xxxx/cash checks Aaron! Nobody gives a xxxx about what you think about anything other than throwing the damn ball to a receiver.

P.S. There's not much that can make this team any more unwatchable than they already are, but signing Aaron Rodgers and having to listen to the toolshed that he is postgame or in the media during the week is possibly the absolute worst thing that can happen to this franchise at this time!

Aaron Rodgers lives solely in his own head.  Time for JS/BD to move on.

The season ticket invoices went out in mid-January. They have you over a barrel because if you don't buy them, you forfeit your seat license. How do they not have a QB in place and expect fans to lay out the cash? Due April 1st. I wonder how many fans are still on the fence? Upper deck Seat License is only a grand, so it's not that hard to walk away.
