Official Favre vs. Rodgers Statistical Analysis 2008 Thread

[SnakeLH2006]

I officially hate this poster now ...

Who me?

Yes. From a posting standpoint.

I'm sure you're a strapping nice, young man but you just press all my annoyance buttons like every day.

The late night used to be mine (and Lurkers) to kind of rumble through posts ... now it's just a barrage of the Snake and Brett Favre Official threads bumps and rants.

Sorry bro to take over "YOUR" late nite rants, cuz that's when I have a chance to post, so don't go all Ocho Cinco.. Don't read them then I guess. I'm posting up shit for the masses for something interesting as I'm a Pack fan like you and have no alterior motive.

As far as Favre's QB ratings I'm not broadcasting insanely gaudy QB ratings as obviously that has risen since the mid-90's. Get a grip and realize this was a friendly thread comparing Arod to Favre in 2008. You don't like my posts, then don't post, as I'm only trying to get some arguments either way without malice for this year for either QB or this thread.

And to get this thread back on topic....this has NOTHING to do with Brett's past QB rating, just a friendly comparison with Arod vs. Brett THIS year. I don't give a damn what Brett did in the past regardless of erroneous posters, this is thread is about this year. Who will have the most wins/better rating...there is nothing underlined/imposed with this topic. This is WAS a friendly topic on those two issues so please continue. Damn.

It's hard not to read them.

They are everywhere in excess.

Keep posting though. I know everyone else really enjoys them... it's *only* me.

They are everywhere with quality content more often that not!

Keep posting though cuz my shit is weak and I have nothing better to do than patronize someone smarter than me who has the chance to post up late, as that shit pisses me off. The damn if someone can post later than me cuz my PackerRats niche is fucked...I mean just fucked. WTF do I have to offer. I know everyone else really enjoys them and I look insignificant.

I'm not here to hate or judge, unlike you. Then quit. Damn, why keep posting? A friendly topic went awry because of your insercurities. You are hardcore tho, yo. Way to keep morale up.

Where's the stat comparison between the two today? I'm curious to see Rodgers QB rating after the first two games.

Where's the stat comparison between the two today? I'm curious to see Rodgers QB rating after the first two games.

Here's the ongoing update after week 2:

Rodgers (2-0):

SPLIT CMP ATT YDS CMP% YPA LNG TD INT SACK RAT
2008 42 60 506 70.0 8.43 62 4 0 1 117.8
Projected 336 480 4048 70.0 8.43 62 32 0 8 117.8

Favre (1-1):

SPLIT CMP ATT YDS CMP% YPA LNG TD INT SACK RAT
2008 33 48 375 68.8 7.81 56 3 1 5 104.1
Projected 264 384 3000 68.8 7.81 56 24 8 40 104.1

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Perhaps the most surprising stats is the sacks IMO.

Rodgers has been lights out thus far, but his sacks have really been a testament to his O-Line doing well and his elusiveness. Favre has looked pretty rusty in the pocket at times as I've seen all 4 games thus far.

The first game? Yes. The second game? They didn't play that well, and Rodgers bailed them out on a number of plays.

Thus they did well in the last game, but his elusiveness did him better to get a better play.

Back from popular demand...Here's the stats from 4 games thus far as I like Arod and hope he starts and like Favre no matter where he plays. What a stud game last week though. Here's the stats going into Week 5:

Rodgers (2-2):

2008 78 126 961 61.9 7.63 62 6 3 9 91.4
Projected 312 504 3844 61.9 7.63 62 24 12 36 91.4

Brett the Jet (2-2):

2008 87 124 935 70.2 7.54 56 12 4 10 110.8
Projected 348 496 3740 70.2 7.54 56 48 16 40 110.8

My take:

Interesting stuff not meant to spur animosity towards the Arod faction vs. the Favre faction as I support both, yet we can assume Brett stays healthy and throws for 30 TD's at least with a good QB rating. Even if Arod stays healthy my guess is that D-coordinators have a grasp of Arod on film now and we need Grant to do SOMETHING despite the shoddy O-Line play else his rating drops more. Favre is unpredictable as all hell in a good way, thus throwing 6 TD's being on the cusp of 39 with a bum ankle in a foreign offense. Pretty good for an old dude with a saggy butt, eh JH?

Well, the statistics now will be a little off until AR has his buy week.

Then, it will be back on track for comparisons. While I think it is pointless to compare, is the two players I like and it's just like anything. Why every season did I compare Favre's numbers to Brady/Manning? Because it's interesting to look at. Naturally, a 16 starter for us starting for another team is going to draw people's intrest in stat comparisons.
