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.

I feel like his O-line has been plagued with injuries and has been generally shitty the last 2 years.

Hasn't been the same since it was alleged that he like to double-check his live-in personal assistant's sausage.

Also - Romo chokes often and always.

Romo has the most 4th quarter comebacks of any quarterback over the last 4 or 5 years. Don't remember for sure the stat. I'll try to find it.

**** ya, he is.

Jewish Rabbi 09-22-2014 11:27 PM

On the topic of Rodgers... How many of that ****ers' touchdowns are 60 yards or more? I feel like it happens a lot, which is more luck than anything.

It's like anything else. Give him the Niners or Seahawks defense, and watch what happens.

I wouldn't go that far. There aren't many guys out there with his ability, which is why I hate when people compare other QBs to him. You could find posts comparing Geno to him, which is ridiculous. His release his off the charts fast, and his throw velocity is ridiculous. Just the mechanics of his ability are amazing. The ball comes out of his hand different than other guys. I still don't think there's been any QB the last 25 years play better than he did during that Super Bowl run, and then that following season where they went 15-1 or whatever it was.

He gay.

Yes, i agree that he's over rated. But i wouldn't take Russel Wilson over him. Russel is slightly better, glorified Alex Smith.
