Chris Jones got his 1 year raise from KC. Saw that coming after Thursday

 

[MongerKhan]

I know how much of a hard on some of yall have for him and will probably celebrate the news but


Aaron Rodgers has left the game for the Jets, gotten x-rays and is in a boot. Lots of medical folks thinking Achillies tear but nothing confirmed yet.

Has been officially ruled out, but Jets still calling it an Ankle injury with x-rays being negative

Salah says "it's not good" in post game presser.

They know, we know, its an Achillies tear.


This also affects GB. Rodgers needs to play 70% of snaps this year to give GB the Jets first round pick.

Also, this could be career ending due to the injury and his age. Something to ponder

I am hearing alot of rumors on that

NYJ - Jordan Whitehead for pulling the hattrick on picking off Josh Allen just activated a clause in his contract for $250K - Congrats my man
NYJ - in case you missed it, Breece Hall is back baby
NYJ - HC Salah says Zach Wilson will be the starter - okay, just thinking out loud here, and not knowing Jets cap space - is there a vet that could be moved? Kyler Murray? Matt Stafford(assuming they still want to move him)?
LAC - Ekeler missed time in 2nd half due to an ankle injury. HC says he is day to day
PHI - got banged up vs. NE - Nakobe Dean to miss several games due to foot injury, Kenneth Gainwell would have missed practice with rib injury, CB James Bradberry in concussion protocol and may miss Thursday night's game
ARI - Josh Dobbs to get start next week as well
PIT - Cam Heyward to miss multiple weeks due to groin injury
IND - Anthony Richardson has ankle and knee soreness, but should play this week
BAL - expected to activate Melvin Gordon off of PS to replace Dobbins on roster
IND - rookie RB Evan Hull will miss time with knee injury - Colts better pony up to Jonathan Taylor.....

Not a Rodgers fan these days, but his getting hurt made FF a lot less interesting

 

[mudloggerone]

Brady?

 

[Phicinfan]

Brady?

From what I have read, his ownership stake might keep him from playing, but I have not heard anything definitive on it.

 

[Phicinfan]

PIT - Diontae Johnson to miss several weeks with hamstring strain per some reports

 

[Phicinfan]

NYJ - confirmed Aaron Rodgers has Achilles total tear and will miss season

 

[Phicinfan]

DEN - TE Greg Dulcich to miss multiple weeks with hamstring strain confirmed

Is it just me or does Josh Allen seem like a rich man's Tony Romo? I mean he is better, bigger and stronger than Romo, but ultimately feels like he is going to make costly mistakes that prevent his team from getting over the hump. Don't get me wrong take him off the team and the Bills are blah, but I'm starting to lose trust in him as the ultimate difference maker that gets them to the Super Bowl. At his best he is as good as Burrow or Mahomes but he can't consistently stay at that level. Brett Favre managed to win one SB but that feels like another good comparison where costly Ints ultimately cost his team.

Yes, to me he is prone to mistakes. He seems to think he is Brett Farve part deux. I would also say blame goes to the OC - why would you not just run the damn ball once Rodgers went out, and win the line of scrimmage game? The only real moving the Jets offense did was after a turn over by Allen. Plus, if you look at stats, Allen has regressed since Daboll left to be NYG HC.

They need another WR too. Sorry, but Gabe Davis should be a #3 type. He just doesn't get open consistently enough.

Agree that they totally F ed up that game last night. Up 10 at the half and playing against Zach Wilson? Just control field position and you win that game. Also, the OT play calling was ridicules. False start and then an incomplete pass. A run up the middle and another incomplete pass. Why run up the middle there? They hadn't been able to get anything against the interior of the Jets D. They they put Murray in on their last possession of regulation. Figured he was in to pass block, but they line him up outside, line him up in the slot or have him flair out of the backfield. Why not put another WR on the field or play Cook? Made zero sense.

 

[MongerKhan]

Ok I know I had a false alarm but it's been confirmed by his agent to ESPN. Former WR Mike Williams has passed away officially due to injuries from a construction accident. He fought like a MF'er. RIP Sir
