Chapter 1: What time is Aaron Rodgers appearing on The Pat McAfee Show?
Well, well, well, the big boy stayed over. He's still here because during the break he got a little notification or saw on social media that the man he works for, Pat McAfee, will be hosting Aaron Rodgers on the show today. It's an Aaron Rodgers Wednesday.
So he's out of the four days of darkness. He's back in the light and the spotlight that comes with that program.
What happens? Do you have any insights on this? Is he going to say he's coming back or retiring or either? I can speculate, but I have no idea. That's what we do. It's all we're left to do when we don't know.
I mean, you're looking at what? What's today? Wednesday? So I find it hard to believe he'd come on and say anything definitive one way or another.
Chapter 2: What are the expectations for Aaron Rodgers' announcement?
Then why does he want to come on?
That's a good question. Schefter said this is the week he's going to say it. Now suddenly he's on the McAfee show.
I mean, I don't think he would go on there to say, I'm done, I'm retiring. Do you, Bob?
I don't think so. He could be. I mean, maybe he's already informed the Steelers since we don't know and everything's been, you know.
Could you imagine that? The Steelers would have to tune in and, hey, what's on McAfee?
Oh, Aaron's on. What? He's not coming back? I think he would have told them in advance.

Chapter 3: Why do some believe Rodgers won't announce he's open to other teams?
Then, you know, I don't know. Maybe he's just not going to say anything. Does this mean he's on the payroll again? I mean, Steelers? No, McAfee. I don't think so. So it's a one-time thing?
I have no idea. I've never even inquired about what happened last year. Can you text McAfee and ask? He's on the air. I text you and you get back to me six days later.
Well, that's different. All right, so what's our prediction then? What's going to happen on this show today?
Chapter 4: What speculation surrounds Aaron Rodgers' potential retirement?
I say he says he's coming back.
I would say if he doesn't say he's going to retire, then he's going to not answer much and just say, hey, I'm working through it. It's that time of the year. I've got to make a decision soon. The Steelers are giving me leeway.
What time is he going on?
I think 2 o'clock, a little after 2. Of course he is.
That's when the PM show goes on.
That's going to be on YouTube only. It's not on ESPN.
Yeah.
This has suddenly gotten interesting, hasn't it, Bob?
Yeah, the timing of it's interesting, very interesting.

Chapter 5: How does the timing of the announcement affect public perception?
But again, I would prefer, I mean, he's going to do what he's got to do, but if he has any announcement concerning the Steelers, he should do it over at the Steelers facility so everyone here can be part of it, I think. Why? That's just the way I think it should be handled. Because if not, he does it there, then guess what?
Sooner or later, all the people are going to ask, get him here, whatever the announcement is, you're going to do it anyway. Unless he's getting paid, and the last time it looked like he got paid a million dollars for that year.
Well, it's not like a 20-year Steeler would be retiring. What do you mean? They'd have a send-off news conference?
Yeah, he's a quarterback, right? That carries with it, and he's a big key to this coming season, one way or the other.
What if I'm just playing it coy right down the middle, but it has like a little grin on his face?
Like, yeah. Yeah, he may do that. That seems like he's been out of it.

Chapter 6: What implications does Rodgers' return have for the Steelers?
I think he's going to say something.
Hmm?
I can't help but remember that Schefter just said expect an announcement next week. Did he not say that, Limits? Am I accurate there? No, you're accurate with that, yeah. So now Sun leaves on McAfee, I'm expecting an announcement. Me too.
And you expect him to say, I'm coming back for one more year?
I think I have obviously no knowledge of it. What if he says, I'm going to play this year, but I don't know for who? Then all of a sudden I'll start thinking Vikings.
He wouldn't go on the show then.
I don't think he would do that.
He wouldn't go on the show then.

Chapter 7: What are the financial aspects of Aaron Rodgers' potential contract?
I think if anything, he's going to say, I'm back, or I'm retired, or he won't say anything. He'll just leave it alive.
Wait, so it's an impossibility that he'll say, I want to play this year, but I don't know where yet? That's off the table?
I think so. I don't think he'd do that either, not on this format.
You know, now I think about it, there has to be some kind of definitive statement because then why would you choose to pick this?
Let me ask you something. Was it him who contacted them? I would assume. So if he contacted them, then he'd have something that he wants to say.
I mean, even if they did contact him, Bob, it doesn't mean that he would say, yes, I'm coming on now. He'd be like, no, I'll talk to you next week, next month.
You know, he's got something to say, doesn't he?
That's almost I would assume that.

Chapter 8: How could the Steelers approach their quarterback situation if Rodgers leaves?
But every time we think that the interesting thing is you think he's going to say he's coming back. Bob, if he had to guess, would say he's going to retire. That's very interesting to me.
I don't know. I think it'll be interesting if you want people to watch. They're going to certainly get a lot of eyeballs on that YouTube feed.
Yes. Yes. Hmm. What do you think?
I think he's coming back. You think he'll announce it this way?
I know one thing, they have to ask him and press him, and they will. If not, they will get ripped for letting him slide by. So that's not going to be an issue.
But let me ask you this. Going back to last year when he was with Pittsburgh, wasn't it made clear to him by them that they didn't want him on that show? I don't think so. You don't think so?
I don't think so.
Because he did it while playing for the Jets.
I think that was, if I'm a guessing person here, I don't think the Steelers knew. I don't think the Steelers cared. I think if he wanted to go on, he could have went on, but I don't think it was purely speculative.
