Jets have such good receiving weapons. They finally got them loose today.

Honestly good for them. A big offensive performance is always welcome in Jets town, as rare as it is. Good for Devante
I'm really curious if they bring Rodgers back next season. I know some are down on him but who else would they use? I suspect at the end of the season his stats will look good.

Rodgers has been fine. Not good. But fine. Massively better than anything else they've had at QB lately. Certainly good enough to win with. He just gets blamed because he's not what he once was. He's nowhere near the main issues on the team (terrible defense, lots of drops, a kicker that cost them three games, bad clock management, and egregious penalties [of which, earlier in the year, a lot of the penalties were delay of games on him])

I think he also gets blamed because people don't like him for various reasons.

If I'm the Giants, I'm trading the top 3 pick for a haul for a team desperate for a QB. They need so much besides a QB.

Trade down two or three spots for someone who desperately wants Hunter or Shadeur for an extra 1st round pick and take Ward.

Interesting view. I think many others will agree. I do wonder though if they will be tempted to draft Hunter since they have a glaring weak spot at CB. Can Hunter play 2 sides of the ball in the NFL?

If the Giants like a QB, and trade down for a haul instead, fold the franchise.

If they don't like a QB? Go for it.

The Giants have 7 losses by 1 score. Add an average QB and the season would look very different. Not quite a playoff team, but not far off.

I disagree. This team is more than a QB away from being a contender. They still need at least two CB's and NT in case Lawrence doesn't want to reup.

Its the age of parity. One score games are the norm. Few teams are that far away from making the playoffs or missing the playoffs. Dallas won the division last season. Minny had a bad year. Philly looked horrible in their wild card game. SF came close to winning a Superbowl. Things change fast in a season.
