Aaron Rodgers isn't fair


Swarly

Recommended Posts

I don't think I've ever seen a quarterback playing at his level before.

Yes, that includes 2007 Brady and 2003(or was it 2004?) Manning.

The guy is just UNfugINGREAL!

72.9% completion, 2,869 yards, 9.7 YPA, 28TD / 3INT, 130.7 QB rating

The 9.7 YPA is by FAR the most impressive to me. To have a 72.9% completion is absurd enough, but to do it while throwing down field and not just dink and dunking(I'm looking at you, Matt Ryan).. fug. We could be watching the greatest season by a quarterback in the history of the NFL.

I have him on one of my five FF teams. The team has only won twice. :(

Sadly, he's not superman. Oddly, I have Cam on three of the teams and all three teams have seven wins thus far. :)

I am 7-3 with him on one of my fantasy teams. After Sun...I was behind by 27 points and between the 2 teams, there was only 1 player left to play. I had Rogers. He got 28 points and the win.

Brady in 2007 was actually better (these stats through 8 games):

Yards: Rodgers: 2,619; Brady, 2,431

Touchdowns: Brady, 30; Rodgers, 24

Interceptions: Brady, 2; Rodgers, 3;

Completion percentage: Brady, 75.2; Rodgers, 72.5

OB rating: Brady, 131.1; Rodgers, 129.7

Yards per completion: Brady, 11.51; Rodgers, 9.88

First I'll address Rodgers. The dude is on fire, but he did get to learn behind one of the best QB's of all time in Favre. A lot of his success stems from watching Favre do his thing. I mean when I sit down and watch him play, he plays just like Favre did. He's an extremely hard worker as well, and then the natural talent just puts people in awe. I'm not too sure what happened between him and Favre but it obviously wasn't good. It's a shame if you ask me.

Now in to GB's defense, or lack there of...

Anybody else think it's sad that WE have been the closest to beating them when we still had a pretty much injury free defense?? If they go on to be undefeated I'll literally throw up!

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
