“Demoting Hackett wouldn’t likely sit well with Rodgers, and the Jets are all about keeping Rodgers happy.”-Rich Cimini

-can’t change the play caller because of Rodgers -couldn’t bring in someone better than Wilson after the injury because of Rodgers -brought in second rate talent because of Rodgers

Feels like we are hamstrung from doing anything that might really help us because we need at keep Aaron happy. Ridiculous way to run a franchise.

    Hackett isn’t our problem… He’s light years better the LaFluer was… the problem we have is a lack of investment in our OL by JD & Saleh, along with a mediocre QB… until these are addressed we will be a sub-par organization…

    Duh. This is the risk you take though. Our season would look vastly different right now if he never got hurt. You just gotta hope we can capitalize on this window we have with Rodgers.

    Every guy we’ve bought in because their Rodgers’s buddy has sucked. Lazard, Cobb, Hackett, Turner, Amos, etc

    I don’t think Hackett is the real problem. Zach is the real problem.

    We’re so unaccustomed to having a franchise QB that all of this is shocking to some of you. On good teams the QB has a ton of influence.

    Could not agree more. The three worst players on the team were all brought in by Rodgers. One of which we are stuck with until 2026.

    Maybe you’ve noticed, things have been slow last few days, not much stories, not much tweets, not a lot added here on r/NYJets last few days…

    Well writers got to write. So sure enough one or two are gonna conjure something. And that something better get clicks and views!

    Nothing in Aaron Rodgers’ contract says we have to start Zach Wilson. The argument that Rodgers is pushing for Zach is stupid considering that Boyle is also Rodgers’ homie. As far as Hackett, I’m not convinced he’s the problem yet. Repeatedly every QB except Zach in the last 3 years has been fine.

    I’m pretty sure Hackett is real hamstrung by the QB play.

    Bringing Rodgers in meant he instantly became more important than the coach and GM. Just ask GB.

    I don’t care who is the OC. As long as Rogers is our starting QB
