New York Jets can’t rely on an OLD Aaron Rodgers to make NFL Playoff | Colin Cowherd NFL

welcome to the official YouTube channel for the Colin coward podcast go on hit the Subscribe button there you go right down there if you want to be among the first to hear my weekly takes NFL college football more right there so whenever I criticize somebody a lot like Baker Mayfield I always start with a qualifier I think he and his wife are great people I know a private story about them that is very complimentary I think he's one of the 20 best quarterbacks in the league and I'm rooting for him I just thought he was overdrafted and immature and um so Aaron Rogers I feel the same way i' vote him for the Hall of Fame I think there are qualities about him that were better than Aaron Roger or I think there are qualities about him that are better than Brett Favre um but he has become it feels to Me podcast guest quarterback on that he is sort of just doing his own thing uh Bill Simmons always had this theory in and I've had a similar one like the older you get the richer you get if you're not married you get a little weird uh I could name like four people off the top of head you get a little odd you're on your phone too much and um but I've had so many opinions about Aaron roggers um I just don't think he's going to be as good as a quarterback as people think his last year in Green Bay he wasn't as good as Jordan love now with a very good offensive line a good offensive coach and like symmetry inside the building I don't know if Sol can coach Nat hack it's a disaster and that o line is a cross your fingers he won't be the best quarterback in his Division and probably with Tua and Josh Allen he'll be the third most productive so where do you stand on Rogers I don't believe you can be a savior at 40 years old off of maage or jury with Josh Allen Mike McDaniel and Tua in a Division I think CJ stra can in his Division I don't think Aaron can at his age with those quarterbacks in his division where do you stand on the coming off the injury part is the huge caveat right because we saw Brady do it in Tampa so it is yeah possible but 40-year-old coming off of Achilles injury with we'll say other interests uh to put it mildly like he he's not Brady right Brady maniacal about football football football football football football obviously that's not Rogers this is Maybe not as fact-based and analytical as you would come to expect an opinion of mine to be I just hope he's good so that we haven't been wasting our time these last two years we have talked so much about Aaron Rodgers on Pat McAfee and Aaron roders on Joe Rogan and Aaron Rodgers and RFK and Aaron Rodgers the vaccine and Aaron roders the the toxic internet brain and Aaron roders the troll and I'm just like man he is one of the most talented quarterbacks that I've ever seen play the position he influenced momes he influenced Caleb he is a first ballot Hall of Famer the only player in the history of the sport with more MVPs than him is pton Manning he is one of the first guys that I've ever seen who was a gunslinger who didn't turn the ball over like he had a he has a 45 touchdown six interception season on his leg like that is that is a one of the craziest Seasons I've ever seen anyone have in my life and so like there's just been so many column inches and so many takes and so so much word vomit on Aaron Rodgers the last two years that I want I feel like we deserve Jets Bengals divisional weekend like I feel like we deserve it as sports fans I want to see Aaron roders Josh Allen for the division we 17 I just I just I'm I'm rooting for him to be better than his weirdness and his age and his injury suggest that he should be because they're going to be on national TV six times again like it is a really compelling Sports theater and it sucked watching Zack Wilson on Monday Night Football last year I don't want to do that type of thing again so I I am hoping that the conversation about Aaron Rodgers can be about football again because he's simply one of the greatest football players that I've ever seen and if he goes out and he's just bad he'll still be a first ballot Hall of Famer he'll be a bit of a punchline and that would suck because yeah I disagree with a ton of things that he said but I still love watching the guy play football and so I'm really hoping that we get some version he's not going to be 45- six but I hope we get a great version of Rogers because then at least it will have made the last two years of nonsense feel like it mattered in a sports sense yeah it'd be like promising your kids a great vacation for two years and then you go to Hawaii and there's a tropical storm yes you're you're the perfect that's the Perfect Analogy exactly it's like come on man like this H this I want if it's 30 to to six Niners jets in week one and he thr three picks I'm G be like come on I don't care about what he says on Tuesday like just like give me a one of those throws where you flick it with your wrist it goes 30 yards on a Time Garrett Wilson catches it and that game's 2724 in the fourth quarter with two minutes left like give me give me that to make all this other nonsense worth something so let me ask you Danny Parkins 670 The Score he just left that Chicago iconic radio station for an a television deal to be announced you've had a different summer uh how has it been for you you just wrapped up a big charity hey football fans if you're looking to dominate your fantasy league next year then we've got the channel for you from the NFL draft through training camp in week one to Super Bowl Sunday fantasy pros is the home of football content you cannot afford to miss subscribe today your team will be in Championship form in no time yeah uh I gotta say um this was not how I drew up my summer uh I was looking for like family vacation and you know maybe a gol trip with some buddies and a little RNR but uh you know the Wednesday to Saturday of this last week is the craziest four-day stretch of my career and and it's not even close um Wednesday we wrapped up the Parkinson Spiegel show so got a goodbye show in radio and you know that that's rare there are legends of the business that sometimes we'll be fired and never get to say goodbye to Their audience so uh you know we got to do it up big and talk to people who uh really mattered to the show and to us and my family came in and surprised uh me in studio for the last segment which was really emotional I kind of have lived my life on the radio and so shared things about uh you know my first son being in the hospital from his premature birth and my dad of dementia and passing away my brother passing away so like it was super emotional bringing them all in but then that coincided with something that I've been working on for literally over a year 13 months planning a radiothon for cancer research in partnership with the Cubs uh I broadcast for 24 hours Thursday to Friday in honor of my brother Brad who passed away from gleo blastoma terminal brain cancer raised $560,000 in 24 hours brought on you know about 14 cancer patients three world-renowned doctors and then between 9p and 4A took 60 calls from people telling their cancer stories uh just incredibly emotional people making $ five donations people making surprise $15,000 donations Tom Ricketts owner of the Cubs donated 25 Grand not expected it was just Ryan Sandberg announced for the first time that he was cancer-free like live on the air unplanned I had no idea he just happened to have his last uh oncology appointment that morning and then came in and announced it so I mean truly one of the craziest broadcast days in my life leading into Saturday at Wrigley we had planned and it had never happened before you know the iconic stand up to cancer moment that happens at the World Series or allar game yeah it had never happened at a local game at a local ballpark so we the Cubs myself stand up to cancer have been planning this event for a long time and Brad's son my nephew got to throw out the first pitch to Craig Council the Cubs manager who happened to grow up with my brother B Brad childhood best friends so I had my whole family on the field where my Brad's son throws out the first pitch then the stadium stands for cancer at the end of the fourth inning I've got 10 family members standing holding you know my brother's name up there and it was just you know it was in it was incredible it was just so emotional and this charity that I've joined the board of directors of I know I'm rambling a little bit but it was just like wrapping up a radio show that I loved uh wrapping up this charity event that I'd planned for so long doing this like incredibly symbolic thing in my brother's honor it's just been a whirlwind of a 96 hours man well congratulations and your next chapter uh I'm not going to give it away but it's uh it's exciting and it's it's I think one of the more enjoyable things for me at this point in my life is watching young talented people get opportunities and help lubricate those and you're going to crush it wherever you go and we both know where you're going no that's the thing like uh after the radio thought I'm supposed to have a week off and now it's I'm coming to you from a hotel room you know so like that my my life is not slowing down anytime soon but listen I I wouldn't have it any other way I could not be excite more excited about what's next you just have to promise that you'll have me on the Pod when we can actually talk about it yes I will I promise um all right Danny whatever you're doing
