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. 😛
