In the NFL, every position on the roster is not the same

New York Jets coach Aaron Glenn was asked today about QB Aaron Rodgers future.

“This thing is not about Aaron Rodgers, folks – this is about the roster,” Glenn said. “We plan on building the best roster that we can. So, whatever that may be — guard, tackle, defensive tackle — that’s what we’re evaluating.”

QB is not like every other position. It’s a QB-driven league.

We all saw that in the epic Kansas City win over Buffalo in the AFC Championship Game – those teams were there because of their quarterbacks, and those two guys battled it out until the end, playing on a very high level.

If you don’t have a true answer under center in the NFL, you are screwed.

There is no other way to put it.

I’m not a special pleader for Rodgers, but Glenn might want to think twice before throwing Rodgers to the curb. – franchise QBs are really hard to find. Do you think any of the QBs in this year’s draft, or free agency, will give the Jets a better chance to win in 2025 than Rodgers?

Rodgers finished the 2024-25 season with 28 touchdown passes, the same as Allen.

And if you don’t have a capable cat under center, where are you going in the league? Seriously.

“If you’ve got a quarterback, you’ve got a chance,” former Jets HC Herman Edwards once said. “If you don’t have a QB, that field is 150 yards long.”
