Aaron Rodgers is a New York Jet.
I repeat: Aaron Rodgers will now wear the green of the New York Jets as he moves to the Big Apple and changes conferences entirely.
But for as much as the Jets hope Rodgers is their missing link, where does he fit in the AFC’s quarterback puzzle? Is he someone that will make a genuine difference against some of the conference’s heavyweights? (At the very least, it’s clear the NFC has a new king after his departure.)
If the Jets have a prayer of contending, he’ll have to, no other questions asked. Because with Rodgers in the fold, the AFC now looks like a Super Smash Bros. roster — you can’t go wrong with your pick of “Bowser” or “Ganondorf” or “Mario” or “Roy.”
Let’s reevaluate the AFC quarterback landscape after Rodgers joins this already-stacked fray.
