I move around late in my career, not this late.
But, you know, you tend to believe in a place because they have your replacement.
In this case, it was Jordan Love.
For Brett Favre, it was Aaron Rodgers.
I mean, you can't dispute the way that he played when he was at the top of his game and how he changed their passing game.
And there were very few players that threw the ball as pretty and as good and as accurate as he did.
So whatever happened here at the end of his career with the Jets and the Steelers,
It's unfortunate that he blew out his Achilles because I thought he was going to have a great year with the Jets, and it didn't work out.
But in my eyes, first ballot Hall of Famer, one of the great quarterbacks who's ever played.
Yeah, a bunch of MVPs, one of the most talented quarterbacks we've ever seen, and someone who, of course, was a superstar and a celebrity in his own right.
So I think, though, if there's any in it, I'm not focusing on a negative, but he was so good that you felt like he should have won more.
You know, he got the one Super Bowl where they beat the Steelers in the 2010 season.
You felt like he was so good that there should have been another time we either made it to a Super Bowl or he, you know, there's a lot of those playoff losses where he'd lose to the 49ers, you know, teams in the AFC, the Giants, obviously, in, what was it, 2011.
So, yeah, I mean, there's some bad playoff losses there, but the fact that he was able to come back from the Achilles,
have a season with the Jets that was statistically pretty good, and then go to the Steelers and be the starting quarterback for the entire season and win a division.
With an offensive team, let's be honest.
That was not a great offensive team.
Of course.
You know, you put him on the Eagles, I think you've got a totally different set of circumstances.
Could the Eagles want Aaron Rodgers to come and play quarterback for them next year?
