Rodgers has been talking all along of how he expects to come back later in the season. If somehow the Jets limp along, stringing together enough Ws along the way to make the playoffs,, look out.

I do believe they can make the playoffs just based on the defense, Garrett and Hall. I even think Zach can do just enough, extending plays with his legs, showing off his arm from time to time and limiting mistakes. The big issue will be the offensive line where they are down AVT for the year and just added Connor McGovern and Wes Schweitzer to the IL. Tippman has been banged up and we don't want Duane Brown anywhere near the starting unit. Right now Billy Turner would be starting at RG and thats IF Tippman can play this week. They signed Saffold today:dunno:.

 

If they make the playoffs, could Rodgers really play? I think it's incredibly optimistic. I have no doubt the initial steps in his rehab went faster than expected but there are much more major hurdles that i'm not sure will go ahead of schedule. 

It would also beg the question of if it would actually be the best move for them? If they win 10 games, for example, with Wilson under center.... would a less than 100% Rodgers who hasn't played since basically August give them the best chance to win a playoff game? Most people will just say yes because its Rodgers and Zach Wilson but i'm not so sure. Of course is he is roughly 100% and can do everything he needs to do on the field then yes.

Had I done this after MNF, Lions would stay where they are and the Raiders would drop considering their entire organization got fired and everybody is interim something or other.

Maybe all the way to the bottom.... 32. Sight unseen, whoever has the Raiders on the schedule the next 2-3 weeks can probably pencil in a W right now.
