Manning pointed out that Rodgers won’t have to learn a new offense, a new snap count, or a new formation, and he can use his athletic ability to play faster. This is a key advantage that the Jets have, unlike what the Buccaneers tried to do with Tom Brady, which proved to be a struggle in the beginning. He said, “You saw it with Brady – he goes to Tampa. They’re kind of making him learn some different language all of a sudden. Week six, they’re like, ‘Hey, maybe we should just call the plays that Tom used to run in New England, you know?’ Okay, let’s try that. Boom, they go to the Super Bowl.”

Also, the Jets hired Nathaniel Hackett as their offensive coordinator before the Rodgers trade went through. It is critical to Rodgers’ success on a team where Hackett was the Packers’ former offensive coordinator while Rodgers won back-to-back NFL MVPs in 2020 and 2021. With Rodgers on board, Jets fans will undoubtedly be excited for the 2023 NFL season to kick off.

Why Rodgers’ transfer to the Jets may succeed?

Peyton Manning has given his thoughts on Aaron Rodgers’ decision to join the Jets. He said that the move has a strong chance of succeeding as Rodgers is accustomed to the offensive scheme. Manning claims that Rodgers will be able to play faster since he will be using the techniques that he previously used with the Packers and offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett will be calling the plays. This might help Rodgers quickly adjust to his new team. “The fact that he doesn’t have to learn a new offense, a new snap count, a new formation, he’s going to play fast. He can use his incredible athletic ability,” Manning said.
