Rodgers would have been a first round bust with the 49'ers.

A different Offensive coordinator every year on a rebuilding and unstable team.

The first two years Rodgers was a very poor QB. I let being bad as a rookie go but little improvement in year 2 really angered me.
I remember I used to ask is he heir apparent or apparent error?

Had they drafted a good tackle in 2005 instead of Rodgers they would have been a better team and not had the great 2006 draft.

Since 2005 I have come to trust Ted Thompson.

So these what ifs never can isolate one variable and say what might have been because there are so many things that happen and keep happening.

I agree. While Rodgers has an amazing amount of talent and intelligence, he is a product of his environment. He was pushed in the right direction in GB from day 1. If he went to SF he would have been a starter right away and it would have gone similarly to how it went with Alex Smith. Sitting for the first 3 years in GB was huge for him. He learned a ton by watching and studying instead of being thrown into it and learning by trial and error.

Possibly sitting home like the rest of us, waiting for the Championship game.

Depends who we replace him with. Flynn did a great job against a Behemoth New England in an away game. Our QB coach does very well at preparing his guys. But yes, not having Rodgers is something that I don't want to think about.

If we don't pick Rodgers.. it is truly hard how to predict the last 3 years would have been sculpted.

Or he would have choked in the NFCCG by tossing up a duck.

I wonder what would have happened if Rodgers started in '07. He proved ready to step up when he out played the old guy who got knocked out of the Cowboys game.

With another year starting under his belt, maybe we get a first round bye and home field in the the playoffs last year.

Who knows.

Hey, it worked, though it took me awhile to find that icon. It's buried in amongst all the others, right next to the all-important skull and crossbones. Thanks for your patience, guys. I'm no good at this computer stuff.
