The Packers have won their first two games, but Aaron Rodgers isn’t playing well—QBR 36, putting him at 24th in the league. Coupled with a bad season (6 wins) last year.
Is there something up with him? An injury or something I don’t know about? I always really liked watching him play.
How Little Bill got Brady to take below market value and the union let it happen I will never know. Biggest scam in football history.
He was also hurt almost all of last season.
Rodgers can definitely suck it. He was our best hope to make the eagles lose in 2017 but he had to go on and get hurt again. I will always hold him accountable for that miserable Philly run, that and the overrated - pathetic Vikings defense of 2017.

Giving Brady the TB12 storefront in Gillette with no rent charged is a pretty creative way to circumvent the salary cap.

According to many he is a surefire HOF'er, yet he hasn't even thrown for over 50,000 yards. Wake me when he does - if he lasts that long.
For an extended period of time he was playing QB well enough to be in the conversation for GOAT. But he hasn't got a bunch of rings, and it's beginning to look like his career is going to carry a whiff of disappointment when it's all said and done. But y'know, he could have a late-career run like Elway and it could look entirely different.
Again. Wake me if he ever breeches the 50,000 passing yard benchmark. So many on BBI debate that Eli isn't a HOF'er, but Rodgers is a sure thing.

He's at 43,356. You seriously think he won't get to 50K?
Yeah, that matters. That's like saying your car is better than mine because you have more miles.
Try some significant numbers. Like 341 TDs to 80 INTs. A 4.26 TD/INT ratio. A career 70+ QBR. Career leader in passer rating of 103.
Guy is from another planet.

He's, like, a season and a half away from 50,000. And only nine QBs have ever done it in NFL history. Fouts, Montana, and Unitas didn't come close.
Why are you so hung up on 50,000 passing yards?

Packers have really failed him, although it seems like they've finally put a good team around him.

There is no guarantee that he'll stay healthy enough. While he has gimped around on a bum knee, he also has a collarbone made of glass and a history of concussions. 7K yards isn't a gimme for his playing style. But go ahead and cast his bust.
He did lose about 10k yards (conservatively) to the bench when he waited three seasons behind Favre. I don't think it's fair to throw his counting stats out there without at least acknowledging that context.

Are you honestly trying to make the case that Eli is/was a better QB than Rodgers overall?
I honestly don't think there's a single person outside of Giants fans would consider Eli more of a HOFer than Rodgers.

Are you saying Rodgers won’t end up in the HOF? You wanna throw some cash down on this? I’ll be on record for making any bet you want to. Assuming our old asses are even around to collect

I'm not equivocating the two players and their resume. Just pointing out that he is overrated among fans. I'm not saying he isn't a good player. But before firing up the forge to cast his bronze, perhaps people should wait for him to accomplish a few more benchmarks? Or not.
I'm not going to go back and forth with his White Knights as they defend Rodgers. My mind is made up. He is a good player. A great player would have accomplished more. I'll wait until he does.

Recall you took this silly position against Rodgers a month ago or so and were basically laughed off the thread. And it’s obvious it has more to do with your trying to prop up Eli as you display your lack of objectivity.
Rodgers is plain and simple a great QB in almost every facet of his game.
Why go at this again?
Usually Diver reserves this level of disdain for players whose parents are outspoken, but Rodgers doesn't even really have any sort of relationship with his parents from what I recall, so I'm stumped on this one.

He threw for 4400 yards last season despite a tibial plateau fracture and a sprained MCL that nagged him all year.
I mean anything is possible but it's curious that you're phrasing it like it's a 50/50 proposition.
Only on BBI is reading comprehension so difficult. I never said Eli was a better QB. I'm not equivocating the two players. Eli has accomplished more in his career - yet is a borderline HOF'er.

There it is...
Rodgers isn’t all that because Eli has 1 more ring and threw for more yards thus far.
You’re a chucklehead...

It wasn't really a low blow - all in good fun, DD. I apologize if it didn't read that way.

I know. I didn't take it that way. Only my biggest fans would remember my stance on Apple and Fitzpatrick's moms.
Statistically speaking since 2008 he's:
TDs: 2
TD %: 1
int%: 1
rating: 1
wins: 5
yards: 7
yard/game: 9
Yard/attempt: 4
Yearly he's near the top in positive stats and the bottom of the negative ones.
Anyhow, ignoring stats, I don't know how you watch this guy and not see how special he is

Gisele makes $10 million yr and their net worth is about $580M , so Tommy can take a little less yo help Bill preserve his SB Legacy. Anyway, don’t know of any rule that prohibits taking less money. Tommy will make it up on the back end . No tears ðŸ˜
Rodgers is a generational talent. Stop using the word if you don't know it when you see it.

I also thought I read somewhere that Kraft makes huge donations Brady's foundation or charity (whatever it is).
Between him and his wife they are probably running in the home stretch of becoming billionaires.
