00:00Aaron Rodgers, not a bad stick when it comes to playing on the golf course, and Aaron Rodgers,

00:09one who says we can't have any drama, always loves the drama.

00:13Yesterday, as he was walking on the course in the practice round out there at Lake Tahoe,

00:18said, quote, I love Devontae Adams, I can't wait to play with him, dot, dot, dot.

00:25Receiver is going on right now, DRS, a new Netflix documentary series in the

00:30fashion of quarterback that is following multiple receivers and one tight end,

00:35George Kittle, of the San Francisco 49ers last season throughout the NFL campaign.

00:39They've showed a couple of clips of Devontae Adams in Las Vegas, who does not look oh so

00:44pleased to be in the desert without his best friend, that, of course, Derek Carr,

00:49who they played together in Fresno, they played 2022 together, but Devontae by himself

00:55last year in 2023. What do you make of Aaron Rodgers' remarks yesterday at

01:01the American Century Championship? Yeah, shout out Garrett Wilson right now,

01:05because all he's heard from Aaron Rodgers is, okay, you're gonna be a young superstar wideout,

01:09this is why we drafted you to the Jets, and Aaron Rodgers comes over and says,

01:12well, I need 16 other wideouts who are all my best friends to compete with this guy,

01:16and then when he says it's my turn to take the next level, you're hearing out here talking about

01:21another wide receiver saying, I can't wait to play with this other guy, why? Because I'm not

01:25good enough, so I understand how the wide receiver's mindset works, where you're figuring

01:29you're gonna get all the footballs going your way, but the quarterback keeps on telling the

01:33football team, I need more help at wide receiver, because apparently Garrett Wilson isn't good

01:38enough, and we always talk about Aaron Rodgers now, where he coined that phrase, let's keep it

01:42all about football here in the building, when all he does is stir controversy everywhere he goes,

01:47which includes 3,000 miles away in a golf tournament, making headlines by saying,

01:52I can't wait to play with another wide receiver. Shout out Garrett Wilson today,

01:56you know he's not taking that kindly, Ben. The offensive rookie of the year in 2022,

02:04Garrett Wilson. The issue has never been football for the New York Jets in this 18-month experiment

02:11so far, I guess you could say, with Aaron Rodgers. Why, just like, what is he doing?

02:19Here's my point. Back in the day, there was the whole rift between Aaron Rodgers and his family,

02:25and many people said, wonder what is happening here? Why isn't Aaron Rodgers closer to his

02:30family? Now I get it. His true colors have just come out in such a large way since he left Green

02:36Bay even the final few years he was with the Packers organization. He is the guy that seeks

02:42everything. It's a gravitational pull toward him, and those people often blame others, the media,

02:49speculation, whatever it might be. Selfish individuals find ways to always make things

02:56self-serving and about their individual self, even in a pro-am golf tournament in Lake Tahoe,

03:03California. If I'm Robert Sala, if I'm Garrett Wilson, if I'm Brees Hall, if I'm Quinton Williams,

03:10I'm thinking to myself, I've had enough, and enough isn't even a full calendar year really

03:16all together playing football. If it doesn't work this year, and what exactly does work mean for the

03:23New York Jets as we kind of change our relative expectation because of all the attention and

03:30notoriety, if this year doesn't work for gang green, it is going to be looked at as one of the

03:36great disasters in the history of the National Football League. It is going to set this franchise

03:43back if it hasn't already by multiple years, a half decade, a full decade for a franchise that

03:49can ill afford it with so much young talent on the roster outside of the quarterback position.

03:56A franchise that has failed to make the postseason for 13 consecutive seasons. So I said Donnie,

04:03if it doesn't work, what is work for the New York Jets? Is it cashing a minus 172 price

04:11to make the postseason for the first time in nearly a decade and a half, or is it truly contending

04:18for an AFC championship? I don't know if it's contending for a championship, but it's a must

04:23to get to the playoffs and a must win a playoff game to continue to see that as a success. We were

04:28talking about last year, you get Aaron Rodgers going to the Super Bowl. We're going to limit

04:32those expectations, but they still should be to compete in a talented AFC. And are we like game

04:38one, like we're going to see this team where like, you know, the teammates themselves were the Mike

04:42White jerseys on the plane while Aaron Rodgers is on that plane, similar to what we saw previously.

04:46Like when do we have a mutiny on our hands for the New York Jets? It's going to be a one in three

04:50start because that media is waiting to pounce as well.
