Rob Oller's Second Thoughts: Will Aaron Rodgers succeed or bomb out like Joe Namath?

Related Topics: Joe Namath, Aaron Rodgers

As Aaron Rodgers heads to the Big Apple, it will be interesting to watch whether the 39-year-old quarterback pulls a Tom Brady or Joe Namath.

If the former, good for Jets fans, who through saliva testing have been linked ancestrally to Cleveland Browns fans. If the latter, well, bad for all of us.

I am weather-beaten enough to remember how another Broadway quarterback ended his career in 1977. Joe Namath spent 12 seasons with the Jets before heading west to Los Angeles, where the 34-year-old with two bum knees resumed his career with the Rams.
