Is Aaron Rodgers Overrated?

[SJ76]

True and Bradford has a stronger and more accurate arm.

 

[Rock Strongo]

It's hard to win rings in the same era as Brady and Manning(s).

yup, but he had his chances.

14-1, 12-4, 11-5 seasons...playoffs. weapons galore.

Do defenses gameplan more for Rodgers or Bradford?

There's your answer to the real question of the thread.

 

[PnkPanther]

The only argument I agree with is many Packer fans try to have it both ways

Packers are awesome with the best...etc etc etc

But when they lose, those guys are bums, Rodgers did what he could. Or they find some scrub who barely played in pin the loss on him....Or the refs, they love to blame the refs

Last season when GB was slumping, it was a team effort, but Rodgers was also looking mortal. I know in the Vikings loss early in season he was missing throws he usually made in his sleep. He got hot and so did the team.....


From week to week he can be the greatest QB ever carrying a bunch of shlubs on his shoulders, or surrounded by great players.....

I've heard many of our 5th string WR would start on most teams

Regular season record means nothing once you get to win or go home.

 

[Ickey Shuffle]

He did look a little shaky a year and a half ago, but he looks just like his normal self now.

unfortunately not enough weapons on defense though

you'll get that from homers that can be found in any fan base

True, but I'd argue one group takes the cake

 

[megalodon30]

Has anyone made the "system QB" argument yet? Just wondering.

Muh Matt Flynn!!!

Both.

Duh.

 

[chf]

Both.

Duh.

Heh.

 

[TJL]

In what universe could Aaron Gawdgers be overrated?

 

[TJL]

If this question was centered around Drew Bree's, it would have my attention.

Rodgers can lead even a shitty team to the yoffs, Brees has had multiple terrible seasons and is much more of a stat padder than Rodgers.

 

[Rock Strongo]

yup

other QB's have carried awful defenses to superbowls. i saw the pats do it once in 2011.

 

[kburjr]

Actually Rodgers is 33. So there's a whole year age difference which of course puts them in totally different stages in their careers.

I see Cowboy B is reeling in a lot of folks with his trolls on this board, too.

Correct. Rodgers doesn't turn 34 until end of the season.

Cowboy B is the fish here.

 

[kburjr]

I like watching the Pack play 17, 18, 19 games a year.

 

[Lions=TeHsUcKs]

It was actually a year ago.

 

[SoCalWizFan]

Matt Ryan and Aaron Rodgers are at 2 different stages of their careers.

Try to not let the facts escape you.

Ryan is 32 & Rodgers 33. Granted Rodgers has a few seasons on him, but they are basically at the same stage in their careers & I could easily see them retiring at about the same time.

 

[SoCalWizFan]

If Ryan is the current best QB then why could he not even get his team to score 3 pts after the midway pt of the 3rd QTR in the SB when that would have clinched the game? No doubt if that were Rodgers (or some other QB that you don't like due to your agenda) you would be making a big deal of how that unfolded.
