Its the offseason so just putting this rumor out there for discussion purposes.

Even if true, I cant help but feel like we are being used as leverage yet again.

 

[Phrazbit]

I cannot fathom the possibility. It makes no sense from either side.

He's got, maybe, one year left, the Cards are about as far beyond contention as anyone in the league and their front office is sending out every indication that they are not particularly interesting in winning next season.

 

[BritCard]

I can absolutely see Rodgers wanting this.

Love, McBride, Marv and Mikey must look great to him.

Whether the Org want that is another story.

 

[602 Native]

Crazy, but has the game passed him by?

Can he get us to the playoffs?

Another AZ retirement project?

How much?

Way more questions than answers about him.

 

[Phrazbit]

I am simultaneously trying to talk myself into and out of this scenario.

I love it and hate it for so many reasons.

He’s a talented jerk which is the worst kind.

I’d pass I don’t see the upside.

 

[football karma]

it would certainly add to the interest factor for 2026

which is what Mike B MUST be thinking (as I delete the 2 emails a day I get from the Cardinals begging me to buy season tickets)

Shades of the Emmit Smith signing......

 

[Brian in Mesa]

No. Just no.

 

[imaCafan]

If this happens he'll be on IR by week 6....

The UFA tender preserves the Steelers' right to receive a compensatory draft pick in the event Rodgers signs with another team while also limiting his ability to sign with another team once training camp begins. The Steelers will have exclusive negotiating rights for Rodgers if he does not sign with another team by July 22 or the first day of Pittsburgh's training camp, whichever is later.

Kurt Warner is still only 54, just saying.

 

[CardsFan88]

Our QB's besides rookie Beck are JB and Minshew. When that is the situation, Rodgers is an upgrade.

That said, I doubt it happens.

He's had some nightmarish games at Glendale. Bad memories might be a reason to not do it. Of course playing for a bad team and a tough division may be a better reason.

I am curious as to why people would be against this signing. Do you think he is not better than Brissett?

 

[TJ]

I don’t see it happening, but this would be a no brainer. Rodgers would unequivocally be the best QB on the roster. Our QB situation includes a journeyman who wants to be paid like a starter, a mediocre backup coming off of a major injury, and a 3rd rounder who’s not even close to being ready to start.

If Jacoby is asking for Kirk Cousins money, then sign Rodgers and let Jacoby rot at home.

I don't see the upside with the group we currently have so how is signing him any worse?

 

[Chopper0080]

No. Just no.

Why? Do you think Brissett is a better player?

 

[Chopper0080]

Rodgers is 15-18 over the past two seasons. Over 3k passing yards in both. Over 63% comp % in both. Over 24 passing TDs in both.

He is, but behind our awful line, JB is far more durable.

yeah, I hate the guy off the field, but he would instantly make this team more watchable and probably have us scratching at .500.

Let's not forget that this same person claimed that Josh Sweat demanded a trade and would be traded before the draft.
