Aaron Rodgers, like Brett Favre, is moving from the Green Bay Packers to the New York Jets. A-Rod’s predecessor believes the 39-year-old will have a successful time in the Big Apple.

15 years after the Green Bay Packers traded their franchise quarterback, Brett Favre, to the New York Jets, the Packers have once again traded their franchise quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, to the team from the Big Apple.

If Favre has his way, A-Rod will be successful with the Jets. “Aaron will do great,” he told “ESPN.” “He’ll handle the transition as well as anyone. He’s an intelligent and instinctive person – on and off the field. In other words, you won’t be able to surprise him very often. “

And continued, “I think he’s the best at making the others around him better. I’d rather not bet at all than bet against him.”

Favre himself got off to a bearish start with the Jets in 2008, reaching the AFC’s No. 1 seed in November, but then an injury scuttled any playoff plans.
