They aren't going to have a better option next year, to try and win a title, and they aren't wanting to rebuild, and play the long game.
That's a good fit on paper, just like it was with the Jets. I think Tomlin wouldn't want Rodgers' disruptive personality in Pittsburgh. He got enough of that with Antonio Brown.
Not all that counts can be counted. Not all that can be counted counts.

I see Rodgers retiring after he realizes nobody wants him.

I don't see it either. Would be Tomlins 1st losing season and how he finally gets fired. I think Rodgers most likely route is retirement. Or continue the Favre path and do a year or 2 in MIN :lol:

Please no. I'm all in in JJ McCarthy. Just my opinion.

I do think that Rodgers plays somewhere next year, but man, it's a risk. Whoever misses out on the top rookies + Sam Darnold may have to take that chance.

There's no way MIN goes for Rodgers.

I assume multiple teams who miss out on Darnold and rookies will go for Rodgers. I just don't know if Rodgers will opt to play for an awful team, hence retiring. He went to the Jets but that felt different at the time. This time around, he's clearly washed and very unlikely to save a team like the Raiders

I see logic to this, but I'm curious how Rodgers and Arthur Smith would mesh.
League #1- 14 tm ppr, 1Q, 2R, 3W, 1T, 1 R/W/T, 1K
1 DT, 2 DE, 2 LB, 1 CB, 1 S, 1 flex

League #2- 12 team PPR, 1Q, 1R, 2W, 1T, 1 R/W/T, 1 W/R/T, 1 Def

League #3- 12 tm PPR, 1Q, 0R (yes, ZERO RB) 3W, 1T, 2 R/W/T flex, 1 Def

Imagining Aaron Rodgers trying to get along with Mike Tomlin AND George Pickens on the same team... boy, that would be some popcorn stuff.

Presumably Arthur Smith would have had a lean on Rodgers when he interviewed for the Jets HC job a month ago. I imagine we'll hear something about that as this continues to unfold.

Tend to agree. Unless Coen thinks he can turn Justin Fields into Baker Mayfield...

It's cool that they're trying to trade with a team that doesn't have a GM, of course - that's just sharp! However, it's not going to happen.

Big part of the reason Coen took the job: he wants to work with T-Law.

And officially debunked / nonsense report:
ESPN’s Michael DiRocco reports the Jaguars called any rumors of a Trevor Lawrence trade “ridiculous.”

The Jaguars added that there was “no chance” they would consider trading Lawerence. These comments were spurred by a report earlier in the day that said the Steelers reached out to the Jaguars inquiring about a potential trade for the fifth-year signal-caller. While anything remains possible, the idea of the Jaguars trading Lawrence seems highly unlikely given that he was just signed to an extension last offseason. The Steelers need help at quarterback, with Russell Wilson and Justin Fields both set to hit free agency, but early reports are they will attempt to re-sign one of the vets this offseason.
In unrelated news, I have also enquired about the possibility of trading for Sydney Sweeney on the girlfriend market... yet to hear back... I'll keep you all posted...
