I think great QBs make adequate to below average lines look just fine. Peyton did it his whole career.
Rodgers is a CP darling, and gets every excuse. His statistic in close games is atrocious, and the sample size suggests it's just not some simple anomaly.
He's a top 5 NFL QB, imo...but honestly, he's closer to the Rivers/Romo tier than the Brady/Manning tier (and I'm talking Brady in his prime)
2010 was a long time ago.
