Aaron Rodgers, the most complete Packer QB ever?

Expect A-rod to win 3-5 super bowls. While never matching Favre's amazing stats, A-rod's future potential post season success vaults him over BF and Starr.

Glass half full....well....glass overflowing! Greatest QB ever then.

Study the roster -- second youngest roster with the best players signed -- let the dynasty begin!

Don't get me wrong man.....I'm loving this time and am bullish on the Pack to be serious contenders for...who knows? Lots of things can happen on the way to the forum. Enjoy it....worry about a dynasty after they win another SB. You know it's not easy......but this team is looking set for a run.........

No one's ever going to worry about a dynasty. We're excited about having a good chance at winning another one and I don't want to wait a year (or two) to enjoy dreaming about it.

It's the player's jobs to be focused on winning. I'm just along for the ride.

How is this an argument between Favre and Rodgers? Starr is by far the best Packers QB ever. Starr was absolutely great. Favre was great, but flawed and well, Rodgers is still young in his career. Nobody knows how good he's going to be, so he can't really be included in the conversation. If you only put in what Rodgers has done, then there's no way he is the best Packer QB ever. If you go on what he's going to do, well, should of could of would of arguments are flawed and useless. He could have more superbowls to come or he could kill his girlfriend next week and end up in prison. It's the future, its uncertain and undependable.

This should be a conversation comparing Favre to Starr and Starr is by far the all and out winner.

Wise words.
Until somebody measures up to Starr, he remains the king of Packer quarterbacks.

A large part of the problem was this : Favre always gave you a chance to win - even against better teams, BUT : he always gave you a chance to lose - even against poor teams.

AR's wrs aren't any better than bf's during his mvp years. sharp, brooks, freeman, chmura, jackson, rison, levens, bennett, etc.

good discussion about the qbs in this thread though.

I suppose I should have said that the teams under Favre's years had their strength in the RB and TEs where Rodgers' is in the WRs as far as the passing game goes. That would have been consistent with the premise that you can't compare the athletes between now and then as they have improved so much.

Tough to measure up current guys to Starr when #15 played in a league with a dozen teams.

A lot easier to win titles then than it is now. IMO, 3 SB wins in today's free agency era is just as impressive as what the 60's Packers accomplished. The NFC has sent 10 different teams to the Super Bowl in 10 years. That is a remarkable statistic in a 16 team conference. Parity really does reign.
