Jets paying $51 million to the cap in 2025 when Rodgers will have retired by then is going to be funny. And I think $30-something in 2026.
The "all-in on the X year window" philosophy vs the "be in the mix every year and excel at situational football to be disproportionately successful in the playoffs" philosophy.Jets paying $51 million to the cap in 2025 when Rodgers will have retired by then is going to be funny.

The thing is, the 'all-in' approach, doesn't have a very high success rate. Even the Rams a couple of years ago, they tried to go all-in for 3 straight years, and now they're going to be trash for half-a-decade.The "all-in on the X year window" philosophy vs the "be in the mix every year and excel at situational football to be disproportionately successful in the playoffs" philosophy.
Yeah, I thoroughly disagree with the all-in/window approach, except in terms of individual incremental decisions.The thing is, the 'all-in' approach, doesn't have a very high success rate.

Which, now that we have the benefit of hindsight - was Sean McVay really the uber-genius he was made out to be? Or did his GM just load up on talent for a short-window run?
It wasn’t a thread but more the general talk about the upcoming season just like we have now talking about the 2023 season.You were? Show me the 'picks' on the 'best divisions'.
The Jets too.There are plenty of people who think the Bills and Dolphins have gone all in this year. They make pretty good arguments.
I am shocked Rodgers took a pay cut. He must really want to equal Brady and Manning by winning a championship with a second team. Also, I would imagine that all of them Mahomes talk is really getting to him too.Jets paying $51 million to the cap in 2025 when Rodgers will have retired by then is going to be funny.

The Jets have pretty much sucked for 50 years. I’ll take an all in, one year Super Bowl and then go back to sucking.Jets paying $51 million to the cap in 2025 when Rodgers will have retired by then is going to be funny. And I think $30-something in 2026.
I understand that.The Jets have pretty much sucked for 50 years. I’ll take an all in, one year Super Bowl and then go back to sucking.
In some ways it is more frustrating to be a "good" team that never wins the SB but is always in the mix versus sucking every year and then having one magical year. There is no feeling in the world that compares to your team winning the chip.The Jets have pretty much sucked for 50 years. I’ll take an all in, one year Super Bowl and then go back to sucking.
He didn't actually take a pay cut. He's making the same money. He just allowed the Jets to kick the can down the road 3 years.I am shocked Rodgers took a pay cut.

Of course. And you should. I would in your position too.The Jets have pretty much sucked for 50 years. I’ll take an all in, one year Super Bowl and then go back to sucking.
Bobby Bonilla is my hero.Of course. And you should. I would in your position too.
I have my $51 million for a retired guy jokes already queued up for 2025 though. It's actually Bobby Bonilla, but 50 times funnier.
The 2011 Eagles 'Dream Team' vibes are incredibly strong at this point. All that's missing is Nmamdi Awesomewhy.Dalvin Cook: Odds "pretty high" that I sign with Jets
Cook will visit the Jets this weekend.www.nbcsports.com
All other 3 teams in the AFCE are in bad shape CAP-wise over the next couple years. Fins and Bills are already over the 2024 CAP based on existing contracts. As soon as this league year ends, they're going to have to go on a major cutting spree to be able to signed 2024 rookies even if they sign zero FAs.There are plenty of people who think the Bills and Dolphins have gone all in this year. They make pretty good arguments.
The thing many seem to forget looking at these numbers is the fact that many thinks change as the teams extend players. I am only guessing but I would expect the pats number to decrease by about 10-20 % before next season.All other 3 teams in the AFCE are in bad shape CAP-wise over the next couple years.

By comparison, estimated cap space for AFCE teams with # of players signed:
2024 (est CAP = $256)
Pats: $107 - 54
Jets: $16 - 56
Fins: -$32 - 55
Bills: -$25 - 56
2025 (est CAP = $282)
Pats: $217 - 31
Jets: $122 - 45
Fins: $101 - 32
Bills: $55 - 32
2026 (est CAP = $308)
Pats: $286 - 13
Jets: $184 - 24
Fins: $166 - 11
Bills: $129 - 17
Oh, for sure., at least for the Pats. Going to be hard for the Bills, Jets, and Phins cap number to decreaseThe thing many seem to forget looking at these numbers is the fact that many thinks change as the teams extend players.
