As a seasoned gamer who’s seen more than a few football seasons come and go, I must say that the timing for Netflix’s new docuseries, “Aaron Rodgers: Enigma,” could be a tad better. The New York Jets finally won another game in Week 15, but let’s not forget the team’s lackluster performance this year, and Rodgers’ role in it.
The upcoming Netflix documentary series titled “Aaron Rodgers: Enigma” is set to release on Tuesday, December 17, and the timing couldn’t be worse, given that his New York Jets team has underperformed significantly this year, much like Aaron Rodgers himself. Despite two consecutive good games, the overall performance of both the team and their quarterback have been a major letdown in the 2024 season.
The continued production of a docuseries on Rodgers by Netflix highlights his significant influence. Although he is now 41, which is quite advanced for a professional quarterback, and it’s been some time since he was among the top in his position group, he continues to generate headlines due to his off-field actions.
The show Aaron Rodgers: Enigma primarily delves into his unique perspectives, rather than scrutinizing his recent subpar performances. Instead, it highlights some controversial views he expresses (with a particular instance of misinformation), which sets him apart from many. Despite this, there are numerous individuals who share his line of thinking, creating a divide that keeps him in the spotlight.
Netflix’s Aaron Rodgers: Enigma is not for those who are easily annoyed
The trailer showcases the quarterback hurling football passes, as expected, yet it also highlights him engaging in a discussion with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., known for his controversial opinions on healthcare. Notably, Rodgers publicly expressed skepticism towards vaccines when it came to COVID-19; for example, he misled the media during the 2021 season by stating, “Yes, I’ve been protected” when asked if he had received the vaccine, implying he was immunized.
The answer is intentionally not an answer at all. One might also, if they know nothing about Rodgers, think the quarterback is dumb because he seemingly implies, using the wrong word, that he has received the vaccine. He didn’t, and he later tested positive for COVID-19 and was forced to miss a game.
Besides being a key aspect, his over-the-top arrogance and indifference towards public opinion are characteristics that drive Rodgers. If these traits grate on your nerves, it may be best to avoid the docuseries as you might find yourself getting quite irritated. However, if you’re intrigued by complex individuals and want to watch a three-part series, you won’t be left feeling let down.
One intriguing aspect of the show could be delving deeper into Rodgers’ perspective on life and football, particularly his spiritual side. Director Gotham Chopra accompanies Rodgers on a transformative psychedelic journey. Whether what you witness is authentic or a carefully crafted performance by Rodgers remains to be seen. To find out, you’ll just have to watch and make your own decision.
