Is Aaron Rodgers GROSSLY overrated?
http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/...ck-experiment/
I watched the entire GB/Det game and I must say...Rodgers has not gotten better at getting rid of the ball. He's got a lot of Alex Smith in him in that regard. He takes a TON of unnecessary sacks. It's bothersome. He also missed a wide open Jordy Nelson when trying to come back on 4th and 5 with a terrible pass 3 yards behind him in a clean pocket... He's had 1 good playoff run. So has Joe Flacco. Why does everyone think he's the best QB in the NFL? I think he's top 5, certainly. But I also don't understand how Tony Romo is a choker, but Aaron Rodgers is not? I have been grossly unimpressed with Rodgers this year...and in all honesty, the last few postseasons...super meh. I've said this for a few years now, but...I'd take Russell Wilson over Aaron Rodgers and at this point, I don't even think it's close. Also, Rodgers is nowhere near Peyton Manning (obvi) or IN HIS PRIME Tom Brady, let's be honest. |

He has a long way to go before he matches Peyton Mannings record of choking in the post season.

I'm just amazed Dom Capers still has a job.... he's more responsible than anyone else for their lack of playoff success since 2010.

I would venture he also has a metric shit ton of 4th quarter losses as well. More than his comebacks. They are basically a .500 team his entire career so why does it matter he has so many 4th quarter comebacks when he has so many losses and contributes to the hole they are in anyway? The number one goal should be to not get behind in the 4th quarter because you are going to lose more than you win, even if you do pull it out of your ass on occasion. |

If you take away Rodgers' 2010 postseason...is he even better than Phillip Rivers? I'm being serious. Rodgers is really, really good...when he throws the ball it's magnificent...but he's nowhere near Peyton or Tom. He's closer to Phillip Rivers then he's ever been to Peyton Manning. Time to face the facts.

The Packers were very good on both sides of the ball that year. The Packers offense ranked ninth in yards per game, tenth in total points, & fifth in passing yards. The defense ranked fifth in yards allowed and finished second in least amount of points allowed (240, second best in team history), sacks (47), and interceptions (24). The Packers never lost a game by more than four points, and never trailed by more than seven the entire season, becoming the only team since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970 to accomplish this. All six of their regular season losses were by a combined 20 points. I still think Rodgers is one of the best qbs in the league. |

I feel like Aaron Rodgers isn't the same guy now that he doesn't have Driver, Jennings, and Finley. He's still good obviously

If Alex Smith had an arm he would be Russell Wilson.
