Yeah I reckon Rodgers would listen to Bill.

Bill still has a point to prove as well. Wants that 7th ring to match Brady's Tampa ring.

Apparently Belichick has been doing a lot of media and many are finally discovering that he indeed has a vibrant personality!!

Of course, his infamous pressers pointed us elsewhere but the news out of the Pats locker room was that the real Bill was away from the preying eyes

New York would go crazy if you snagged him as coach.  There'd be a different story every week!

But we might be talking next season anyway

*Breaking News*

Belichick is 2-1 favourite to get the HC job at the Jets.  In front of a long list of candidates with next best being Mike Vrabel at 4-1

Not to be the broken record in the corner but I also think Aaron would listen to Bill.

Niners get the win, they looked good early, Seattle came back but Smith threw 2 bad interceptions, one at the start of the game and another which killed any chance of a comeback.

Now that I'd like to see ... for any number of reasons

Principally because of the clash of Ego's between Belichick & Rodgers!!  And Bill could only improve the Jets from your position right now

The AFC East is not the NFC North!!

I was just thinking today on why Bill isn't coaching.  Forget his age, the man is a genius 

I hope you at least talk to Belichick

The problem is you can't hire head coach Bill Belichick without getting GM Bill Belichick who probably was never that good to begin with as a talent evaluator/roster builder and his last 5 years or so in NE seems to be a disaster.

The irony being you can't hire QB Aaron Rodgers without getting Offensive play designer/caller and the heavy spread them out and let Aaron pick the match ups offense isn't beating teams.

If Bill was willing to just coach the 53 he's given he'd still be a great coach. And if Rodgers could just run the offense he's told to run by a quality modern offensive coordinator then the arm strength and accuracy still look very good to me and he'd be a top 10 or so QB.

Bill might actually have the juice to tell Rodgers to shut up and do what a good OC wants. Not sure there's a GM in the league with the stones to manage BB.

A week is a long time in sport (sometimes) and after reading about all the reasons why Bill wouldn't take the job on, it seems a long shot now anyway

So the Jets are probably going to have to find another way forward.  And because the AFC North is not a strong Division, they can make the playoffs

But they'll need to win the Division as a wild-card spot might be out of reach

I wouldn't rule a line through Belichick right now but it seems unlikely that he'll take the Jets coaching job

Lions embarrassing the cowboys. 27-3 at half time.

Dallas D has more holes in it than a swiss cheese. offence toothless

McCarthy needs to go. the sooner the better

He could go to the Jets and reunite with Rodgers!

Yep, and this team should stop building whatever they thought they would build.

This franchise needs to bottom out and rebuild with proper drafting. But thinking about it, the Joneses would be in charge of drafting 🥹🥹

I saw they wasted another red zone offence with 0 points. What actually happened?

Do you feel like McCarthy wasted Rodgers prime? Having a generational QB and not going back to the SB is just not acceptable.

Handed over the keys which is not Rodgers fault either.  Same deal with the Jets about who has the keys

So McCarthy didn't waste Rodgers, he wasted the teams chances

As previously stated, under McCarthy, it  was all about the passing game

The running game was bog average, run defense poor and the secondary wasn't great either

It was Rodgers dominating or bust

However, one Super Bowl win is better than none but we had loads of chances to at least get to 1 or 2 more SB's.  I'm neither bitter or annoyed about it though

There's 32 teams so all things being equal, any team has about a 30-1 chance of winning the SB

It was a great ride watching Rodgers career.  A genuine star 

But it's a team game

The NFC North is going at 16 & 5!

AFC East 8 & 13

Hutchison broke his Tibia vs Boys. 

About the only thing that went wrong for the Lions.

Daniels was very good vs the Ravens today, this kid looks better than the Hype had him.

And I've been a Lamar/Ravens critic but they now seem to be getting it all together and Lamar looks good from the the pocket.
