WFT - Rodgers , not likely but can happen, it will be bad for NFC E , since WFT has a very good defense and become a contender with Aaron R ( Cowboy Killer) :(:(:angry:
*Haha& ha,, it'll be far worse for that stink-twinkie Rodgers should he fort up with the Commanders ( of which I can only hope he does land there) as his career will be quickly toasted to the crumbling burnt black scale of Done,,, y'all :hammer:

What team was it that snapped our #4s fetlock last last, somebody help me out w/ my memory ,also , which team's was it? that had placed on sidelined our #9 the majority of his crumpled up in the ditch wrecks he'd enjoyed during his playing days,,, ARRON RODGERS was flat out hating his life for 55 of 60 minutes in that last ROMO Q.B'd game( I think it was the 2014 season?, ,as come to think about it, that sports bar I'd frequent to watch& party w/ the fellow BROUGHAM'S of COWBOY FANDOM is long gone/boarded up)

Watson will be an Eagle or Skin soon. My guess. If WFT don’t add him this year, and Hurts bombs, then Watson will be an Eagle.

Texans may put Watson on paid leave this year. How crazy is that?

Honestly, I think Watson's legal issues will force him to stay with the Texans THIS season but he'll still want out next 2022. Trying not to sound too cocky but I'm 100% convinced the Eagles are going after either Watson OR Wilson their additional draft capital next season. It's the exact kind of move Howie Roseman lives for, not to mention he needs to save face for Wentz mess.

Brett Favre deja vu.
He's not getting younger.
But its not like he'll go wherever they trade him.
He can retire.
And host Jeopardy.
For a year.
Then return wherever he chooses.
If he chooses.
Or continue to host Jeopardy

Sexual Misconduct is not nearly as bad sexual assault (and I do believe he did it). That doesn’t make it okay, but The courts will decide his fate... win lose or settle. He’ll get a suspension based on the result, and then in 2 years time it’ll be little more than a heckle during games about how he gets horny in inappropriate situations.

I see it as this being the mother of all wake up calls, like whatever happened with Roethlisberger and that woman in the bathroom. Watson should be a straight shooter from here on out. I’d take greatness with this baggage over pretty good and squeaky clean.

What he did was bad, but he didn’t beat someone up, he didn’t sell drugs to children, he wasn’t picking up 15 year olds. He misled woman and hit on them when they were in compromised situations. He needs justice but his life shouldn’t be over for this.

And I’ve got a 3 part plan for the Eagles to get him!

Watson has 22 females who have filed charges, you can down play it if you choose. I'm sure the NFL will look into it and frankly will not be shocked if he is suspended. As for my comments of teams being leery? year on a 39 mill a year contract on a QB who has not prove a damn thing and now is in hot water? I don't see many teams willing to jump on him and for anyone that does beware, this is evidently not some isolated incident but a pattern of behavior from a player who plays a position of so called leadership.

He also has options in sports broadcasting if he wants them. He's not going to end up on the soup line.

I do think the team and fans are in for a surprise when he's a no show. I'd like to know if his house is up for sale.

He would lose $44M if he were to retire. Don’t know what he would claim as the reason for not showing? He would lose his salary and be fined. He’ll show.

..why would you want to keep a player who doesn't want to play for the organization anymore? Have some respect and let the guy go.

The irony of Cowboys' fans labeling AR a crybaby. Cause you know that enjoyment is a direct result of AR's success against the Cowboys and also the level of comparative success that Green Bay has enjoyed the past 25 years.

Im not downplaying at all. Will he get the death penalty? No. He’s not even charged with anything.

He’ll have a civil suit and then it’ll be over. Maybe a suspension, maybe commissioner’s exemption, but then he’ll be back playing at a high level for the next decade.

Who cares? Rodgers learned well from Farve, he will probably say he will retire this year and 5 more times in the next few years.

Exactly.........pretty sure Rodgers asked the same question. Just me, but I think he's done with them. When you consider the presence of Love AND he wants a new deal, this is messy.

Side note: I know the Raiders and Broncos are mentioned as possible landing spots but don't sleep on the WFT. They have all the ammo and I just read that Synder wants a new stadium by 2027. The scary thing is we know they're only a major upgrade at that position from being a serious contender.

Dude, they got Fitzpatrick, they're set. And you don't want to piss him off with a QB controversy.

Interesting predictions.
I look forward to seeing this play itself out.

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Aaron Rodgers was not among the group of players who reported to Lambeau Field on Monday for the start of organized team activities, a source told ESPN.

That came as no surprise to the team given that Rodgers did not participate in Phase One, which the Packers held virtually for the previous four weeks, or Phase Two, which was held in person last week.

Phase Three, which includes 10 total days of work spread out over four weeks, began Monday. The first session open to reporters is Tuesday.

The entire offseason program, excluding the June 8-10 mandatory minicamp, is voluntary. However, Rodgers is one of 19 Packers' players with an offseason workout bonus. He already has missed enough to disqualify him from cashing his $500,000 bonus.

It's another sign that nothing has changed in the standoff between the Packers and Rodgers, who has told some in the organization that he does want to play here again after spending the first 16 years of his NFL career in Green Bay.

The Packers have maintained that they have no desire to trade Rodgers and want him to return for "2021 and beyond," as Packers president Mark Murphy put it.

Me too. Nothing would surprise me. The only thing that might would be the NFL being consistent. Zeke wasn't charged with anything either and got 6 weeks due to one woman. There are almost 2 dozen complaints against Watson. Is that the same as 1? We'll see.
