Rodgers most impressive qualities?

[RashanGary]

Another thing Rodger does that is pretty damn shocking for a player of his experience level is that he almost always seems to throw to the right spot. How many throws do you see into triple coverage that aren't in the last minute and a half of a losing game? Watching Tavaris yesterday was an eye opener just how good Rodgers is at diagnosing the game.

Scroll to the bottom for his deep throw splits:

Those are actually not bad.

Aaron Rodgers = 17 of 53 with 5 TDs and 6 ints over 20 yards

Brett Favre = 11 of 44 with 4 TDs and 7 ints over 20 yards

Peyton Manning = 21 of 67 with 5 TDs and 5 ints over 20 yards

Eli Manning = 14 of 55 with 4 TDs and 3 ints over 20 yards

Jay Cutler = 19 of 62 with 5 TDs and 5 ints over 20 yards

Better than Favre and pretty similar to other top QBs on throws over 20 yards.

You're becoming the anti-homer and its pissing me off. Was the "better than Favre" really necessary? I'd hope a kid in his physical prime is better than the guy who has appeared washed up throughout the season.

Jesus Christ man, make up your mind already. One week you are pointing out how Rodgers is a journeyman QB and Favre is playing great, and that with him the Packers would be so much better, the defense would be so much more amped up to play, and the special teams would be knocking people's heads off. Next you're telling us he's appeared washed up throughout the season, the same day you're telling us Favre obviously still has his legs.

WHICH IS IT??

Whichever suits his argument and bashing at the particular time.

What the hell are you talking about? How many times have I stated how great Rodgers physical skill set is? It's the mental aspect that is lacking. Favre is over the hill. That is COMPLETELY unrelated to Rodgers. He is playing like a 15-12 quarterback, as I went through and listed, and hardly anyone disputed.

JSOnline has an article right now with the headline that Rodgers is playing at the level of the 19th best QB in the NFL. I think thats too low, but all of you homers who think top 10 are just nutzo.

He's being outplayed big time by Matt Ryan and Cassell certainly, and one could make an argument for Flacco as well.

WTF is the point of this Zool? I hardly even come around this place anymore. Idiotic comments like this and drama is exactly why.

Holy fuck you guys are sensitive. It said his better qualities and no one here said anything about his fancy hair or his physique. But whatever I guess you guys have lost all sense of humor.

And the POINT of this was a joke. If I had meant anything other than that by it, I would have stated it directly. Its not like I post back handed insults or anything. I feel like I'm usually really direct about insulting someone.

Your point?

Really nice when the mods here are even calling posters out.

And the same goes for you. I was making a joke how you always used to comment on the "finer qualities" of some of the players and their physical appearance. And to lump me in with some of the shitbag of idiot posters(and you few know who you are) here is kind of insulting.

[rbaloha1]

1. Ability to make all the throws

2. Respected by teammates

3. Always looking down field despite pressure

4. Scrambling ability

5. Classy dude

[Zool]

6. Tight pants.

Your action was in very poor taste. And believe me, I'd know

I would ask how you know how Zool tastes, but I think that one answers itself. Instead, I'll ask "How does he taste?" Like olives? Buttered bread?

I don't come here much either. But for me it's overreactions like this and a complete loss of perspective and humor on the board as a whole that have soured my experience - the Packers section in particular.

I don't think it's an overreaction. I mean those of us who support Favre at all are always getting called out for things and I'm tired of it.

And like you of all people should even talk about people overreacting. Should we bring up your cry baby antics about the PR game this year? Then there was the whole mod thing.

Anyhow, Merry Christmas, Skinbasket

Fine. To answer your damn question, Rodgers will never be the NFL's sexiest man, but dayum, he has beautiful eyes

Actually, I think it was Monday night, we ran into him and his brother Luke at The Bar. I guess alot of his family will be at the Lions game from what he was saying. At least you know they had no problem getting a ticket, LOL. Tix are going for dirt cheap for this game.

Rodgers has been good... good enough that I'm all the way up to wait and see mode on him.

The offensive scheme puts everything on the QB - everything. That is to say, you'll never win a SB with Trent Dilfer, or Jeff Hostetler running this system.

For the Packers to have a chance at a title, good isn't good enough at the QB position, the QB has to be great, has to be the deciding factor more often than not. No power running game to fall back on; no shut down defense to rely on.

Don't know if Rodgers can ever be that good - to carry a team that needs to be carried... can't rely on championship calibur defense to be played by the Packers any time soon. Pretty tall order for any QB.
