Aaron Rodgers Criticizes Media After Playoff Loss

Aaron Rodgers recently expressed his frustration with the current state of media coverage in the NFL during his appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, lamenting the decline in football IQ and the rise of opinionated commentators who often lack relevant experience. This commentary came after the New York Jets were eliminated from playoff contention following a 36-32 loss to the Miami Dolphins, marking the team's 14th consecutive year without a postseason appearance. Despite throwing for 339 yards and a touchdown in the game, Rodgers was terse when questioned about the team's long playoff drought, stating, 'I've started for one year, so I'm a part of it for one year. It's disappointing.' Fans reacted to his responses with mixed feelings, reflecting on the Jets' dismal history since their last playoff berth in 2010. While some blame Rodgers for the team's struggles, he emphasized that his role in the situation is limited due to his short tenure. The Jets, currently at 3-10, face an uphill battle to finish the season positively.
