The NFL is progressing into its Week 3. Both Week 1 and 2 have been nothing short of entertaining and full of action! Now as the new week starts, some teams are looking to shrug off their losses and look for the best playing combinations. One such team is the New York Jets. Prior to the start of the 2023 season, they looked like the best team with veterans and the legendary QB Aaron Rodgers. But now things seem quite different.

With A-Rod’s season coming to an end with an unfortunate Achilles tendon turf injury, the Jets are suffering right now. Though there’s Zach Wilson in the squad, given his experience and abilities, the Jets need a miracle to make it to playoffs. Now, fans and media want another legend to take Rodgers’ place in the Jets team.

Is Tom Brady, the 15X Pro-Bowler coming to NY in place of seasoned campaigner Rodgers? What a sight it will be to witness arguably the two best QBs in recent NFL history together. The 5X SB MVP was recently asked about taking the QB honors for the New York side. Brady, who played for the Patriots, one of the biggest Jets’ rivals for nearly 20 years downplayed any possibilities. When asked about whether the Jets had reached out to the former QB on the “Let’s Go” podcast. Brady was quick to reply “No, no, no- next question.”

The picture of A-Rod standing next to Brady in the Jets camp won’t be possible! There’s no denying that Rodgers and Brady were fierce competitors for nearly two decades. Both were contemporaries and played against each other for several years. The duo have admiration and respect for each other off the field. While the 3X First-Team All-Pro winner retired earlier this year. Rodgers is still seeking comeback insights upon getting a successful surgery done this week. While A-Rod is out for the entire season, his absence is causing problems for the Jets side and they seem somewhat clueless on the field.

Furthermore, Rodgers provides a balanced attack by throwing deep balls at regular intervals. Bereft of their senior’s guidance and presence, the Jets weren’t able to run the ball. Additionally, as per the defenses, the side had a day to forget. Now, with a visible no-shout in the shootout, there’s extra pressure on the defenses to hold the score.
