  1. So sorry for Aaron and all the Jets fans. Was really looking forward to watching him play this season. Wishing him a speedy recovery

  2. Fuckin A, man. This sucks. Feel for him. Wish him all the best and a successful recovery.

    Gotta wonder if he can recover from that at 39. Or if he even wants to with him considering retirement lately.

    What a shitty way to go out for an all time great.

    💚💛

    Fuck the Jets GM not investing in OL.

    Fuck the Jets / Giants owners not investing in a proper playing surface – artificial turf sucks.

  3. He has to be absolutely devastated. If you have been watching hard knocks, it’s the Rodgers we know and love, completely dedicated to the team, the game, and hyper competitive. Wishing him the best.

  4. That was tough to watch last night. Outside of the 1 handoff, he got hit on every snap behind that OL. It is really unfortunate that he got hurt so soon but based on how it looked, it was only a matter of time. Everyone knew that line was bad, and it was on full display.

    Sucks for Rodgers and that fan base. Hope they can get some OL help and he can work his way back next year. It would be fun to see him get hot one more time, even if it isn’t for us.

  5. Just awful. For all his faults and how messy his exit was here (which he certainly holds his fair share of the blame on), it was kinda nice to see him seem so recharged with the Jets. It would be terrible for perhaps the greatest Packer ever to end his career like this.

  6. Damn, that sucks. I really wanted to see what he would do this year. Hoping he makes a full recovery.

  7. I hate saying it, but that will be very hard to come back from at his age.

    If that is it, then it was a hell of a run.

  8. Definitely wasn’t gonna root for him this year, but man that really sucks to see. Still my favorite athlete of all time.

  9. Hope he recovers and plays again. I know for a fierce competitor like Rodgers, going out like that is not how he wants to end his career. Wishing him a speedy recovery!

  10. Shit way to end a career. Loss to the Lions to miss the playoffs, 4 snaps and done with the new team.

    He had a good career.

    He put together a good roster and coaching staff in NY, they should be successful without him behind center.

  11. The fucking Jets couldn’t even protect Rodgers for ONE fucking drive! Absolutely pathetic.

    And people were saying the Packers didn’t treat him well. Just a complete garbage franchise and trash turf stadium.

    Fans and players need to stop being sad, and start getting angry. There is absolutely no reason NFL games should be played on turf. If Green Bay can keep a grass field operable through the harsh winters, then these other teams can too. The standard should be set.

  12. I hate that this happened. I turned on the game last night to see what he could do for another team. Packer fan first, but I was definitely a Rodgers fan independently of him being on the team. To see him go out like that, was heartbreaking.

    However, after thinking about everything that led to him being on the Jets in the first place…Does our front office have a crystal ball or something? If you look at the timeline of Love’s draft, and how this injury happened the first game after he leaves the team, that pick was perfectly timed. It’s just insane for things to line up like this.
