Aaron Rodgers Responds To "Mac Jones On The 49ers Could Do What Purdy Is Doing" Take | Pat McAfee

I want to get back to what I was asking you about Brock Purdy, though. You put him over last week and talked about him, and you talk about how the quarterback is ultimately the guy that has to pull the trigger and put the ball there, so it's not just the coordinator. Dan Orlovsky said, you put Mac Jones over there, he'd be doing the same exact thing that Brock Purdy's doing, and Dan probably has a reason to say that, but I feel like that's everybody's opinion that doesn't like Brock Purdy. They just think it's Shanahan's offense and yada, yada, yada. This dude makes seemingly every right decision quicker than any young quarterback has in a long time. I guess C.J. Stroud is another guy to kind of throw into that thing. Why is that the thought, and do you think Brock Purdy hears any of this whenever he's going about his business throughout the week? Oh, I hope he does. I hope he does, because that's just a little extra fodder, a little extra motivation on the shoulder. I'll tell you what, man, I don't know how you watched that film and come to that conclusion. I know there were a lot of so-called experts on the network that you're repping now. Whoa! Whoa, don't throw us into that whole thing! Whoa! No, nobody on your show. I mean, you guys all have educated opinions, but you're all so open-minded to not be having all the answers. You know, you constantly are talking about how you guys are, well, you personally, how you're not the smartest in the room. All of us. All the time. And I'm not claiming to be the smartest in the room either, but I will say that when I watch Brock Purdy, I see the guy making some big-time throws. And he made a couple the other night that were incredible, throwing over the top of guys, throwing around guys, moving up in the pocket, keeping his eyes downfield, making plays. And yeah, Kyle's a great play caller. And kiddo, you know, I saw him on the show yesterday, he's a great player. He throws a fantastic, you know, Swiss Army knife. And CMC is one of the best, if not the best, running backs in the league. And the Lion is great. And on and on and on. At the end of the day, one guy pulling the trigger. He's been making a lot of really good decisions. You talk about interceptions, he doesn't have one yet on the season, I don't believe, right? No. This kid, you know, he was drafted with the last pick. There's some motivation. I remember we played him in the preseason that year, and he came in and he took them right down the field. I remember thinking like, that's pretty cool for that kid. You know, last pick in the draft, might have a chance to make the team. You know, Alan would say there's a lot to that Iowa State mentality, I'm sure. You know, how they raised him out there. I know Ty doesn't like that. Yeah, he'd be wrong, but that's okay. But I would say that's probably a pretty fun city to hang out in, right? Ames? Yeah. Ames is the armpit of America, you bet. What is your problem? Ames is a good place. They got good people up there. You want to have fun in Iowa, you go to Iowa City. But that's, you know, that's neither here nor there. Well, I'm not going to Waterloo. I mean, not according to Brees and not according to Alan Lazard. But anyway, listen, Brock's done a great job. I hope they keep shit-talking him. Just for his sake, just give him a little extra motivation, because that's always fun. But I think he's quieting people every single week. I love it. And he's getting paid $940,000. They can do so much with that. And he's living with a roommate, I saw. Yeah. He's got a roommate, and he's doing the ride-share program as well, or something like that. He's probably having it, because if you think about the taxes out there, $940,000. Making like $200,000. And then rent in San– Living paycheck to paycheck. This guy's clearing $14,000 this year. Slicing and dicing. Maybe he's a part of a co-op, and they have some sort of barter system for goods and services and stuff. Just to cut down other ways to save money. Who knows? Yeah, I wonder how it's all working. Hey, we hope you survive this year off the field. This is old school. Guy's got two, three jobs to play in the NFL. That's how much he appreciates this thing. FaceTime from Orlovsky. Let me see. Let me see if he answers. Obviously, Aaron did. Hey, we're live. We're live. We're still live. Okay. What? I did not say. What the fuck did I say? I thought that's what you said. I read the headline. That is what he said. He said it. I didn't say that, dude. I didn't say that. I never once said Mack Jones would be playing like he would be better than Brock Purdy. I didn't say that. I said he would be playing like that. Like that. Oh, okay. What is that? Like Purdy? He's mad. Hey, you're doing great. You're having a hell of a run, bro. I just watched highlights of you from your career. You're incredible. That was pretty good. Yeah, it was pretty good. The Walmart commercial was awesome. Everything's going good. You look good. Everything's good. Nice throw. More pants this week? Good luck. I think we'll have to rewatch the film to see what happened. What'd you say? I think we'll have to rewatch the film there to see who's right, who's wrong, who's putting words where. You know what I mean? What? Why can't I just? Like, why does it have to be, oh my gosh, Danilovsky hates Brock? Oh, is that what's happening now? My gosh, dude. That's what he said, right? It's not disrespectful to Brock Purdy. I've never once said one disrespectful thing about Brock. When he played last year, I was like, this dude's really good. He's really good. I can also say Mac Jones would be playing like that. It doesn't mean he'd be playing as good. It doesn't mean. Like that. What do you mean? Like that. I'm sorry, I might not know English. Like that, aren't you saying? Yeah, he could be just as good. He would be Brock. No, I don't know. I have no idea if he would be just as good. I don't know if he'd be playing MVP level football. Like that, he'd be playing. Dan! Hey, listen. All good here. Now, Aaron did take it as a chance to say some stuff. And to be honest, I forgot he even went after you because, I don't know if you heard this, him and RFK Jr. are going to be debating with Tony Fauci and Travis Kelsey at some point. I completely forgot about what he said. I apologize that we put you right in the middle. Here's Getup, by the way. Run for president. Listen, we just learned it. But Getup said if Mack Jones was in San Francisco, he would be playing like Brock Purdy. Quote. That's what it. Dan, that's your show. Quote, unquote. No, it's not. That's Mike Greenberg's show. Remember when people were saying if Lamar Jackson was in Kansas City, he'd be playing with the Holmes? No. I don't remember that. Remember? Dan, it feels like you're in a tough spot right now. You lose! It's alright, Dan. Remember, Walmart commercial. Awesome. Yes. Equalizer 2 promo. Awesome. The shoulder thing. Equalizer 3. Equalizer 3, you're right. That one was also sweet. Yeah. The shoulder thing is moving. Doing numbers. Ice cold Dr. Pepper. Moving. You're voicing over in a Toy Story movie. Awesome. You're killing it. I hope you have a good afternoon, bud. Well, it's going to be better than yours. I appreciate you, Dan. I will be watching at a film. Is he mad? He should be mad at Get Up, not us, because they quoted. They put the quote out. No, Dan quoted Get Up, too. I mean, it's an absolutely horseshit argument. I said like that. Yeah, same thing. Brock Purdy is playing at an MVP level. Sounds like a Schefter situation from yesterday. If Mack was playing like that, he would be playing at an MVP level. I said something bad, but I never said it. I'm Brock's fan. Now everybody's saying I'm not Brock's fan.
