Both Peyton Manning and Tom Brady have had the luxuries of playing behind solid OLs. I wish as a team, we'd make that a priority for Aaron. I know this issue has been addressed elsewhere and I'd rather not this go off topic but it needs to be said.
Aaron has only started 3 years now. I want to see that number closer to 12-14 years when he retires. Most importantly, with at least a pair of SB wins in there. Would love for Aaron to be considered a better QB than Manning when he retires.
1500 passing attempts isn't that much. the fact that Rodgers can attain that level with less than 3 full years of starting really shows that. However, if we increased it past 1500, we'll lose a lot of the older players who played back in the days when teams primarily ran the ball. Some of those QBs played for well over a decade and only got 1500 attempts. Some of them are in the Hall of Fame.
Take Sid Luckmann for instance. HoF QB, yet he didn't even throw 1800 passes. He played 12 years.
Or closer to home, our very own HoF QB Arnie Herber only threw 1175 passes in 11 years.
