Tiki and Tierney rattled off some predictions on Friday, trying to peer into the crystal ball and give their picks for the Jets’ 2023 record depending on which quarterback is starting for the team next season.
Of course, the list began with Aaron Rodgers, the team’s top target, though one that Tiki has said is a “pipe dream.”
“If Jets get Aaron Rodgers, their regular season record will be: 11-6,” Tiki said, while BT countered with 12-5.”
Here were the rest of the picks:
Derek Carr: Tiki 10-7, BT 11-6
Jimmy Garoppolo: Tiki 10-7, 10-7
Ryan Tannehill: Tiki 8-9, BT 10-7
Baker Mayfield: 9-8
“I dont think Baker’s terrible,” BT said. “I don’t want that scenario for us, but he’s not a terrible player.”
What did the exercise reveal? For Tiki, it showed that the Jets don’t need to splurge for Rodgers.
“I think the marginal benefit of Aaron Rodgers makes him not worth it to give up whatever it is you have to give up,” Tiki said. “And it’s short term.”
