Putting up numbers in garbage time is not the same as doing it when games are competitive and the team is pushing for a playoff berth.

Also, Rodgers had better receivers to throw to, especially after the Jets traded for Adams, and he still couldn't do much when it mattered. Neither guy had good pass protection, but Wilson was also hampered by a terrible receiving corps.

Wilson is a weird dude, Rodgers is far worse. A buddy of mine is a two-time cancer survivor. He wrote in a group text about how much he hates the idea of the Steelers bringing in Rodgers. "It would be a mistake of massive proportions. Locker room cancer and I don't use that term lightly."

The best part of getting Rodgers is the likelihood that Adams would come along with him, but how much cap room would you want to tie up in that duo?

I'm not advocating for signing Rodgers. I'm just saying that if you look at what's out there, who's better? Russell Wilson on his best day is not as skilled a player as Rodgers is. One could make the argument that Fields still has upside, which Rodgers surely does not.

Rodgers is 5 years older than Wilson and less mobile . I don't want either one of them both of them are washed.

I don't want either either. Options are limited. The Steelers get to pick between 3 stop gaps. Or they could trade up and draft one of this year's busts.

Covid attacks your organs, there are many people who never got vaccinated who have a slew of health problems now, including heart problems.

Everyone is different. I got vaccinated once and got covid at least once maybe twice and haven’t been affected in any other way from either.

Sorry about yours and Wards losses. Let’s bring this back to football now.

I will stop watching if he is our QB. I would rather Cliff Stoudt. I am sure he has something left.

I don’t know… does A Rod have enough left in the tank to deliver us another 10-7 season with a first round blowout loss in the wildcard round?

I don’t know because that Jets team was pretty talented and he did nothing with them. If it were the earlier Rogers then absolutely but he’s too much of a headache compared to his production. That said it’s either him or Russ. That’s if Russ doesn’t go to the Raiders. I say the heck with it let’s see what Fields has. He’s cheap so we can put weapons around him. Who knows he might be decent. Look what Hurts just did because he had all that talent around him. I guess TBD!
