No, I simply meant from a physical standpoint he has very little improvement left to make. Peaked is an adjective meaning approaching or constituting the maximum. By saying Rodgers' physical development has peaked, I was saying he is now developed as a passer. I do not know why it has such a negative connotation, as a person can reach their peak long before going into decline.

We're not talking about the connotation but about the denotation of the word. Look it up, man.  :P

A peak implies a point. A point implies an upward angle followed very quickly by a downward angle. *shrugs*

Yes, LTF, I'm being a dick.

Your referring to the noun, whereas I am using the adjective. You should pay extra close attention to those italicized letters next to the word next time.

Yuck I hope he hasn't reached his peak. He's good but still, I'd like to think he has room for improvement.

He's got years before he's reached his peak. A RB peaks in his late 20s. A QB peaks in his early 30s nowadays.

As QB he definitely hasn't reached his peak, but from a strictly physical standpoint he pretty much has.

What does that even mean? You don't think he could be stronger or faster? Or do you mean you don't think he can grow any taller? I don't understand.

I really didn't put that much thought into it. Didn't think it would offend you so much.

You could offer your own comment on the Cutler-Rodgers debate, instead of merely over-analyzing mine.

Please do not try to get into a pissing match with me when it comes to grammar. I am an insufferable grammar nerd. You will lose every single time.

You said, "Rodgers has appeared to have peaked though this year."

The word "peaked" in the past perfect infinitive phrase "to have peaked" is not an adjective at all but rather the past participial form of the verb "to peak."

And even you had been correct in your assertion that you'd used "peaked" as an adjective, the adjective still has precisely the same denotation as the verb. "Peaked" means "having or rising to a peak."

So the point stands: if he's peaked, he's about to decline. If that's not what you were trying to say, use a different word. 😛

beast (15h) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere
beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.
beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?
