Maybe by some stroke of luck it won’t be a tear.

And they all looked pretty bad in the process of losing. All three teams will likely turn things around but I'm starting to wonder about Allen. His DNA is of a high risk, high turnover QB and I'm beginning to think this is who he is where you have to take the good with the bad.

He's basically a souped up modern day Brett Favre. I know he's elite, but I've never been fully sold on him to championship level the way many are. Yeah too erratic and impulsive, there's a few AFC QBs I'd take over him.

Fell behind in the 2nd half, just finished. Best worst game ever? That was unbelievable! What a catch by Garrett Wilson on that one TD, beast.

They had to go out and get a running game this off season to be a threat and they haven’t. So you get manic Allen again.

They have a tough schedule so I think they go 10-7. Might still take the division with that though.

So if the turd’s career is over, what does he “earn?”

Providing he doesn't retire at the end of the season he's guaranteed $75 million over this season and next.

As far plays that sum up Josh Allen this one is particularly on point: Making an utterly ridiculous and desperate attempt to convert a play he has almost no chance at converting, while risking his body and the ball to do so. At this point in his career/life it's gonna be difficult to coach this out of him, but it's this hero ball approach to everything that has to go away if he's ever gonna take the next step. But as long as he feels compelled to always try and do the most heroic/risky thing possible, the Bills are pretty much capped as a playoff team and not much more.

The other factor about Rogers injury is that it now means the pick sent to GB in the trade now becomes a 2nd instead of a 1st.

It was conditional on AR playing 65% of the offensive snaps this season.

Carson Wentz 2.0

Confirmed, Rogers has a torn achilles and is done for the season.

MRI has confirmed a torn Achilles for Rodgers.

I dislike the guy, but that really sucks. Wish that on no one and it's pretty brutal for the Jets too. Going from offseason euphoria to Zach Wilson again ... yikes.

[Paulie Walnuts]

Anyone catch Joe Buck taking shots at Wilson and Peyton Manning being disgusted that he was still playing lol.

Buck made it a point to say Wilson had nothing to do with the TD pass.

Manning said he didn't want to see him attempt more than 3 more passes and right after Wilson ran 30 yards backwards and almost got sacked.

Those tackles either made big mistakes with those cut blocks or Rodgers did what he has been known for which is holding on to the ball too long and not making the risky pass, it worked in Green Bay with his tackles.

I wonder if preseason rust and no proper reps with the tackles may have been a contributing factor to a potential career ending injury.

Just a week ago he was spreading vaccine cap again on his story he was acting like a child. Putting an X on Moderna and stuff like NovaxDokovij.

You don't want to see a career end from a injury like that, but man does he ever make it hard to even like an ounce ever since he lost his mind publicly in 2021.

This is shaping up to be a VERY bad season for a lot of fans... At this point as long as the Cowboys don't win the super bowl I'll take whatever outcome.

[Erick Estrada]

Jets fans must really feel like they are cursed and I almost can't blame them. What's the odds of Rodgers suffering a season ending injury on his first series? Incredibly bad luck there as the Jets actually look like a pretty good football team but I just don't see them doing a lot with Wilson as QB as you aren't going to face opponents that turn over the ball every week like Allen did.

[KelVarnsen]

Do the Jets go sign Wentz?

Ha ha ha. Honestly I would stick with Wilson and see if they can get anything out of his potential as if he can't they can go clean slate in the offseason. Wentz has loser stink all over him. I could see McCoy once he gets a clean bill of health being signed.
