I get the rule changes and stuff but there's still no way I would take Favre over Rodgers.

I think it’s basically impossible to compare quarterbacks from this era to previous’. The average passer rating is up ~15 points.

I wouldn't say not in the same league. Just not as good.

I grant Favre was good, but nowhere near as good as Rodgers.

Rodgers is just on another level.

I would also agree that Favre wasn’t quite as good as Rodgers. But I wouldn’t say he was “nowhere near as good” or that Rodgers was on “another level.” I think it’s much closer than you give Favre credit for. How many QBs have won 3 MVPs?

Some of it's in what you value.

I put a premium on accuracy. Favre was always more of a general vicinity guy, with occasional lasers and occasional "what the hell was that?"

Man why'd they have to put the hurricanes right now.

Yeah I’m kinda annoyed the Rams made this a game, was hoping it was enough of a blowout that I wouldn’t be missing anything watching the Canes... oh well

Granted, but Rodgers is a pretty physical guy too.

I'm primarily talking about just how much different the passing game in general is between the two eras. The protection QBs get, the protection WRs get, how much tougher it is to cover, the more spread out attacks, etc. It's just a different game now.

      I am high, but that’s besides the point! The blue line is not good right now. I’ve said it all year. I don’t think this group meshes well. Slaven has been just OK Niki up and down Miller up and down ghost and Walker have been your most consistent guys. Maybe it comes together more towards the playoffs

      I was expecting to see more cap room moves by now, which may be to suggest that we are not going to be that aggressive.  I have mixed emotions about that (because I think we have 3 needs on D and 3 needs on O--starters).  If you look to the draft for 3 starters, that is ambitious.  We need 6

      Yeah we shouldn’t be competing with teams, bidding wise, to sign a WR. There will be one for us and our budget.  I keep saying, how many balls will there be to go around anyway? One thing good I will say for this offense is the ball has been spread around at times. Seems like I remember seeing a large number of guys have caught passes in a game. Or been targeted at least. 3 RBs 4 or 5 WRs 2-3 TEs type of stat lines. 10-11 guys.  Not every week but that happens.    As far as WR in general, we need the smaller agile and quicker component to compliment what is there. After that it should be about depth, having good backups for the starters so we can run things consistently still, if a guy is out for a week or two. That is especially important in game where you have to finish the game with who you made active.
