And if you get the Jetts past the first round of the playoffs 3 or more times you are a Jetts legend. That fanbase is desperate and loyal.

There is nowhere else that Carr has the potential to become a local god in the way he can with the Jetts. Hell, he doesn’t even have to win a SB there. But if he does then he gets statues and babies named after him.

Incidentally, I think this is why Rodgers will want to go there as well. Aaron seems so preoccupied with his ego and his legacy that the chance to be a franchise’s brightest star since Broadway Joe Namath in the 60s & 70s will have a strong appeal to Aaron; and Rodgers probably thinks he would be a bigger star than Joe (he wouldn’t).
