Has the highest career QB rating of all time.

Although the stat is not official, because QB stats are only official with at least 1500 attempts.

Rodgers: 96.9

Nothing can be said. He is our future, and the future is bright.

Can fans discuss too?

Rodgers is on his way to elite status among his peers.

Manning has been playing since his rookie season. He came into the league ready to start. A-Rod had to wait awhile and, of course, was injured during two seasons even as a backup.

He's showing everyone that he was the quality QB that most anticipated. It is the Packers great fortune that other teams did not need a QB on draft day in 2005.

The funny thing is that so many teams that passed on Aaron Rodgers DID need a QB. Several of them really needed one and a few others could have used one before we ever needed him. Sure, these teams still had other needs that they were attempting to take care of, but the QB is the most important player.

Teams like Detroit and Cleveland, who consistently passed on drafting QBs high until very recently, are great examples of teams that should be kicking themselves. Might Aaron have failed with those teams?

Perhaps. But he has elite skills that I don't think most QBs possess. Guys like Brady Quinn and even Matt Stafford.

I thought that they became official at 500 completions.

Detroit needed WRs. Like the Thanksgiving Day game, it should be standard for the Lions to draft a WR with its first pick.

I think Rodgers would have failed with those teams. No way was the guy ready to play his first season. Probably wasn't ready to play his second season either, though he was much better.

Aaron is THE example for what can happen with several years of seasoning. That three years he spent behind Favre was the best time he could have spent. He has developed into a really, really good QB. We're lucky to have him.

I agree, letting a QB slowly adjust to the speed of the pro game is definately an advantage. MM took the time in the offseason to let him learn the right way to watch film and breakdown a D, he learned the O the way it was meant to be run instead of running for his life playground style. I can't believe more teams don't do this with young QB's.

Until he goes down with a broken "X" since his pocket presence still sucks and 50-60 sacks is gonna catch up to him/us before you know it

I completely agree. I don't think ARod would be the QB he is today if he had gone to one of those teams and been put into a situation where he was starting from day one. His time spent waiting has been invaluable to him.

More Bush League antics in calling out other posters not in this thread

Everybody is wrong at times; it's a good thing most prefer to take the Barry Sanders route

[digitaldean]

Thankful the Packers have a long layoff till the next game.

Even against the Kitties, A-Rod looked pretty beat up after the game.

Amazing the abuse that kid has taken behind that line this year.

[Bossman641]

Very very impressive numbers from Rodgers. I could not be happier with our QB situation.

BTW, how about that throw to Driver? 70 yard toss!!
