Aaron Rodgers Legacy

GNewGiants : 1/22/2022 11:09 pm
IMO, it takes a massive hit. Another playoff loss at home as a favorite.

I think the break up happens this off-season.

exactly choke?

I don't defend Rodgers, but I didn't see Rodgers choke in that game. Sometimes the other team wins. For example, in SB XLII I didn't think Brady choked for the highest scoring offense in NFL history only scoring 14 points. I felt like the Giants D played lights out. Kind of like how SF did today.

And some facts, in the playoffs in his career Rodgers is (before today) 65% completion percent, 45 TDs/13 INT for 5600+ yards and a 100+ rating over 21 games

in those 21 games he's had a rating below 90 just 3 times (and one of those games in the year he won the SB).

That does not sound like the guy I'd blame and call a choker for the team results in the playoffs. Sometimes you can look at the QB stats and pin it on him, I don't see it.

Come on PJ, he didn't do a thing outside of his opening scripted drive. SF shit the bed in every single aspect except ST's in the first half yet were only losing by 7 come halftime mainly because of the ineptitude of the GB Offense. He then got handed the ball with 4 mins left at home in a tie game and went three and out. This was the epitome of Rodgers yet again choking

No one said he was terrible. But there have been too many times he had the ball to win the game and didn’t come through. You can’t blame the surrounding cast like others are when that cast is the reason why you won MVP(s).

He didn’t get it done tonight. Plain and simple.

Exactly, a clutch Qb wins that game going away

the whole team didn't get it done. Like I said, sometimes you have to give the other team credit.

He is 10th all time in playoff wins.

And has as many or less playoff losses than Favre, Roethlisberger, and Peyton

It does not seem to support the narrative/hate

Agree with MAB, it definitely seems like people don't like him as a person so they really want to make him out to be a loser.

He's a first ballot hall of famer, has a ring, multiple MVPs. and a decent playoff track record in the main area he can influence (offensive stats)

Is this a bad 80s sitcom?

Nobody runs away from a game thread. Get ahold of yourself. It’s a shitshow of 250 posts of people rambling and posting hot takes of specific plays. Who is going to have debate on that? And I posted there later too - still trying to understand the packers thought process in calling Time twice at midfield.

I found your post lame and theatric. Obviously a man’s 20 year career isn’t defined by one divisional round drive - even if he didn’t have no time to throw like he did on this one. Obviously

But I just assume you’ve been drinking so I get it. Deebo was theatric tonight too and looking for a show. You two have that In common. Congrats.

To Jones ? Jones broke stride because he’s not a WR - knocking him for that is absurd.

You call it broken coverage - I call it a defense biting on a team deep in its own end on 3rd and 5 or whatever to end a half. It was a smart play call that happens all the time in this league.


He broke stride because he had to wait for the ball. Or do you think Rodgers anticipated he was going to stop and intentionally threw it short? It was definitely a blown coverage, the CB was expecting safety help.
You know a guy is an all time great

when the knock is he's only won one Super Bowl. I don't get the sheer joy people get in dumping on a player of this caliber for not winning more titles (or not winning a title at all).

I guess the vaccine thing adds another element this year but it's long been a BBI tradition to piss on QB's like Rodgers, Peyton and Rivers when their team gets eliminated.

I know this is emotional for many of you because of Rodgers personal beliefs, but if that wasn't Aaron Rodgers are you really blaming the QB for that loss? Really? That game is on the QB?

He completed almost 70% of his passes with a few drops.
AR is an all time great  
Producer : 1/23/2022 12:35 am : link
but he was pretty blah tonight. It's weird that a QB that has so many last minute heroics during the season seems to come up short a lot in the playoffs.

He still has some time to win another title or two, but the playoffs are a bit of a blemish on an otherwise stellar career.
And Brady has 7

I actually like Rodgers personal beliefs even though that’s a crucifiable offense here. He wasn’t good enough tonight. This is multiple playoff gmds where he couldn’t throw a 30 on the board let Alone a 20. His feet deserve to be held to the fire

montanagiant : 1/23/2022 12:47 am : link
On what game Rodgers has had during the playoffs where he decided to be the man and carry his team to the promised land?

What game with time running out and the season at risk where Aaron Rodgers decided enough was enough and by God, he was going to win the damn game? That he was going to put his team on his shoulders like all great QBs do and get the win?

After you do that look at how many times he had home-field advantage and didn't do shit. He just played a team that the cold obviously affected them in the first half. An Offense that had 40 yards passing in the 1st half that he marched down on their Defense with his first possession like they weren't even there. That he also got chunk plays on his second possession but screwed that up when they got close.

How on Earth do you only get 7 points in the first half with that debacle of an Offense on SF?

These are simple questions that you should easily get since you are the "Pro-Take" about GB on BBI

His legacy looks a lot better if that had gone differently.

LakeGeorgeGiant : 1/23/2022 4:36 am : link
is when he wins it's because Rodgers is awesome, and when he loses it's everybody else's fault. This is what he believes. This is what his fanboys believe.

He is obviously a talented player, but he is not a leader, and thusly he is not a winner. The proof is in the pudding.

This guy couldn't hold Brady's jock strap.

When he loses he points fingers. He blames the coach. It's never his fault.

On that last drive you could argue that the throw to Cobb was not so great and could have been picked. Or you could argue that the DB made a great break on the ball.

Worth saying twice? Probably

How can a player of his caliber constantly come up small in the biggest of games? However, he did not give up 10 points to a blocked punt and a blocked field goal.

I guess there is a reason Tom Brady is the G.O.A.T.
He should go to Tennessee.

Coaching staff. Green Bay got up quick and I was thinking a potential blow out was in order. They hung in there, made some huge ST plays and kept battling even with a horrible turnover.

SF was the more physical team. In the playoffs, this tends to play well.

It was tough sledding offensively for both teams and SF made a couple more big plays. In this game it just came from Special Teams.
It’s incredible how difficult it is to get the 2nd SB

I’ve made this point and will continue to do so, the 2nd super bowl title has proven to be very difficult to get. Peyton had to go to Denver to get it, and he was along for the ride. Russell Wilson has yet to do it, Rodgers hasn’t & Brees was unable to do so.

With that said, Rodgers puts his team in position every year. Come playoff time you are going to run into big time defensive teams. That’s what happened today. The blocked punt was a killer for them.

Blaming personnel? Well same personnel he’s going to win a MVP with.
Has the best WR in the game, and excellent RB and let’s not act like Lazard is chop liver.

The fact of the matter is the Rodgers is a top 5 player in the game. He played at home. His defense dominated. And despite the STs ineptness, all he had to do was score 14 points.

If you watch the game, he was confused all night. The 49ers were disguising defenses that led to him holding the ball. He never used his legs either. As one of the best in the game, he didn’t get it done. I don’t care if he completes 2 yard passes. He made one great play where he had a guy open by 50 yards. But he didn’t make the plays needed to win.

So outside a busted coverage. He had 19 completion for 150 yards. That’s not stepping up. It’s not a good game. He takes the brunt of the responsibility.

How many teams in history have won despite a blocked FG and a blocked punt returned for a TD in the same game?

How many QBs lose a game where the defense surrendered 3 points for the first 59:59 of the game?



That is the most insightful comment about the game. Special teams plays like that are absolute killers and 99% of QBs can't overcome that.

The defense gave up 3 points until the end. The blocked punt happened late in the 4th. What about the first 55 minutes of the game when the defense dominated and kept giving him the ball?
Holy shit

The hate is real. And lol at people thinking the poster was serious with Jimmy g played lights out comment and gb special teams was great. R E L A X. Would like to see anyone go lights out in that weather. Honestly
Feel bad for the guy, everyone just was waiting for him to lose. I’d take him on my team in a minute.
He may not have lost the game

but he sure as hell didn't win it either. When you're in the discussion of all time guests you gotta do better than 10 pts at home as the top seed. He's gotta be better to be in that conversation and to dispell some of this postseason narrative. And while the circumstances of all these home playoff losses are different and perhaps even explainable (running into an unstoppable buzzsaw juggernaut QB in Terminator Mode in 2011, for example...) they all conspire to create a narrative.

I actually happen to like Rodgers, I think he's an interesting guy. But he added another unflattering chapter to the book last night. I don't think it's even debatable.

So you just ignore the front 4 dominating the packers line? Narratives are great. You say he’s confused but did he drop the big time 3rd down pass to his tight end who was open for a 30 yard gain? Did he fumble the ball on the second drive at midfield? Confused right. Jesus people use words they don’t even know what they mean. He wasn’t confused. He had big time drops in bad spots and a defensive line who was in his face all night long. Go back and watch the game.

Has 1 SB win thus far

And he’ll go down as one of the all time great QB’s. Great legacy if you ask me.
Yeah, pretty good legacy  
trueblueinpw : 1/23/2022 8:25 am : link
If he never throws another pass he’s still a lock for the HoF. Probably first ballot. I feel asleep for the second half of the game last night, but even if he spent the second half jizzing on himself in the locker room I’d say he’s on of the best QBs I’ve watched in 40 years of pro football.

Don’t forget that the Niners got paid to play last night too. Gotta give Shanny and his staff a lot of credit.
Very strong legacy bit now these playoff disappointments  
NYGgolfer : 1/23/2022 8:36 am : link
are part of the calculus. Will still make the HoF with ease, but measuring him against the best of all-time will have these shortfalls to account for in the discussion.

He and his Packer teams clearly left a few on the table by not even getting to another Super Bowl.
Next to Brady the best of all time
