Former Jets offensive lineman Willie Colon examined Rodgers on his performance of late while still maintaining the same type of personality.
“That’s who Aaron Rodgers is. That’s who he’s always been,” Colon said after the game he dreams. “He just covered that up because of the way he’s been playing. You can be smug and cocky when you’re winning MVPs, and you’re balling. You can make every play on the court, you can be smug. The problem is it.” smugness and his game don’t match.

“The problem going forward is if you’re a Jets fan, you’re damn right to be angry. We all have the Zach Wilson era. And Joe Douglas and his regime told us that once we get Aaron Rodgers, the bad times will be behind us.
“That’s not the case. If anything, this is an ultra reset. So yeah, if you’re a Jets fan, you should get fucking mad at Aaron Rodgers because if we give you the ball, the Aaron Rodgers, in game-winning situations, this is Kobe (Bryant). This should be an easy W for us. And our defense isn’t terrible.”
Colon, a Super Bowl champion with the Pittsburgh Steelers, also criticized the decision-making, citing the Jets going 1-5 after firing Robert Saleh and not doing too much to inspire fans with the offense despite they had Davante Adams, according to Terrible announcement.
“…I’m looking at a quarterback who will one day wear a gold jacket,” he added. “And he’s the worst in the NFL. If you’re a Jets fan, burn the whole damn thing. Burn the whole building, nothing makes sense. Everything is worse than before.”
