You know, for offensive linemen, you know, it's funny. My career, I was a defensive tackle, moved to offensive line where I played right tackle, then forced inside. I didn't make a dare. There was nowhere else for me to play. You know, it was just like, bye-bye. You know, you're just not good enough. So there is a sense of anxiety and a heightened sense of, man, I got to make this work.
And, you know, when I came off my second IR, I wasn't even forced to play right guard. I was moved to left guard, which was different for me because I had, you know, most of my career on the offensive line, I played the right side. So I really had to kind of change my mindset and my mechanics just to survive at left guard, which was tough, but I was able to do it.

I do. I do. I thought the last couple of games for the Jets, he played well. I think once Olufashinu, their first round draft pick for the Jets, was able to crack the starting lineup and replace Tyron Smith, he seemed more comfortable in the pocket. And at the same time, he was a lot healthier. You know, last year he was dealing with a lot of knickknack injuries. He was dealing with the ankle.

There was a hip issue. There was a hamstring. Every week you looked at the injury report, Aaron had something. And I think towards the later, the back end of the season, excuse me, he started to feel and look more mobile, right? He was able to kind of evade the rush and get outside and make some of those off-platform throws.

And then you started to see the numbers and his production kind of pick up. So which led me to believe after watching him for a couple of games that, you know, there's still something in the tank. It was just weird that He just didn't have the chemistry that we thought he would have with Devontae Adams. Garrett Wilson and him seemed like they weren't on the same page.

But overall, as far as him making every throw on the field, he could still do it.

Well, to be honest, I'm going to go with Aaron Rodgers simply because I know Aaron right now can make every throw in the field. One of the biggest bugaboos with Russell last year was that he simply struggled with throwing the ball in the middle of the field. You know, everything was in moon balls. Yeah, he can make the layups, but he seemed boxed in at times.

And he took a couple of bad sacks, which we knew that was his thing. But when he was decisive and deliberate with the ball, he was money good. I like Aaron. I like Aaron when healthy. And if he's able to stay healthy, which is the number one question, I think he'd be super productive, especially now that you have DK Metcalf and now you got George Pickens.
