First of all, Aaron Rodgers DOES air it out long fairly often. To the extent that he doesn't more often, though, I think that is the result of line blocking or the lack of it. Have you ever noticed how quick the pass rush is on him - compared to Brady or Peyton or a lot of other QBs? Oh, we don't get overly many sacks because Rodgers eludes good and (despite whining to the contrary) has a quick release when needed. However, just dropping back and having all day to throw it 45 or 50 yards down field? That just ain't happening, and it isn't because of slow receivers.

BTW, I'm a little conflicted concerning uffda's fairly SHOCKING comment that he'd prefer Marshall and Jeffrey over Nelson and Cobb. I was gonna give it a "homer" reaction or point out the Bears record and recent history compared to the Packers, but then again, I too kinda wonder "what if?" Aaron Rodgers had targets like that.

The bottom line is, we have the best QB in the history of the world.

And btw, Starr was the best ever.

I grew up watching Starr, and great as the Packers were then and great as Starr was, he wasn't even close to Aaron Rodgers.

And how many rings per year is Aaron averaging?

Someone please explain to me why this is still used as an argument more than a decade after one had to start reconciling it with the fact that Trent Dilfer and Brad Johnson have more rings than Dan Marino.

TRENT FUCKING DILFER and BRAD FUCKING JOHNSON. The argument is invalid.

I would like to add that Daryn Colledge has a ring and Dan Marion does not. Thus, Colledge should be in the Hall of Fame.
