Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers passes Brett Favre in NFL jersey sales

Aaron Rodgers of the Green Bay Packers has eclipsed his predecessor, Brett Favre, in off-the-field jersey sales, too.

The most valuable player of Super Bowl XLV rose to No. 2 on the NFL list of most popular player jerseys over the past year, according to a preview of the rankings obtained by Game On!

Rodgers sits behind only No. 1 Troy Polamalu of the Pittsburgh Steelers on the list which is based on sales at NFLShop.com from April 1, 2010 through March 31, 2011.

Favre ranked No. 1 the previous year. He plummeted to 14th place this year.

It's the first time Rodgers has had more jersey sales than Favre, who retired from the NFL in January.

Drew Brees of the New Orleans Saints, Peyton Manning of the Indianapolis Colts and Tim Tebow of the Denver Broncos round out No. 3-5 in the Top 5 list.

Other big shifts: Tebow, who ranked No. 1 through November, finished No. 5. Packers linebacker Clay Matthews, who didn't crack the Top 25 last season, finished 8th -- ahead of quarterbacks Tony Romo of the Dallas Cowboys and Eli Manning of the New York Giants. Despite his dog-fighting past, Michael Vick of the Philadelphia Eagles rose to No. 6th from 20th place.

The Packers, Steelers, Cowboys, Chicago Bears and New England Patriots were the Top 5 teams for total merchandise sales.

OK, my big question is why are so many people buying Tim Tebow jerseys?

Funny that Favre's ahead of AP even though Favre's retired. Wonder how Vikesrule feels about that, considering VR went into hiding when Favre was QB'ing his beloved team.

You know, Burt Facre.

Miles is cute, according to my wife, so lots of women and guys who like pretty men buy his jersey.

Not that there is anything wrong with that.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

It's just all the cheesehead wannabe's jumping on the Packers "we were lucky to be in the playoffs, let alone the fluke SB win" bandwagon.

Only thing more fickle than a cheesehead is a cheesehead wannabe.

....And ZS, I hope your legs grow together. :wickedfart:

There are a lot of college football fans out there, and Tebow was a fantastic college player who is now in the NFL. That's my best answer.

wpr (9h) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
