I've checked multiple sites (NFL.com, CBSSPORTS.com) and they say the same thing. Aaron Rodgers has the highest quarterback rating in the NFL after Week 8:

Top 10 QBs---------------Rating
1 Aaron Rodgers------------110.4
2 Peyton Manning-----------109.3
3 Drew Brees---------------107.6
4 Brett Favre----------------106.0
5 Donovan McNabb---------103.2
6 Ben Roethlisberger-------102.6
7 Matt Schaub---------------100.5
8 Tom Brady------------------99.9
9 Tony Romo-----------------96.8
10 Phil Rivers------------------95.9

I'd trade it for some wins (and I'm sure Aaron Rodgers would also), but still congratulations are in order. He's thrown 14 TDs and only 2 Ints. And to be doing it with the protection he's had so far this season (31 sacks) is simply amazing (only 2 other quarterbacks have more than 20 sacks--Cassel (KC) 23 and Russell (Oak) 24, not the kind of company I'd want to be keeping.

3 QBs hav 16 TDs and 2 have 15, but none of those have as few Ints as Rodgers.

Woo hoo!

That is really all fine and dandy, but I would like to see Rodgers throw a few more INTs along with a dozen or so more TDs. He needs to start taking a few more chances. Of all of them sacks, I would figure that there was more than likely a small window on some of them that he could have gone for.

Neither would I. Nothing kills a team quicker than turnovers. The top guy in the league has 16 TD passes. Aaron's only 2 behind that. That's pretty good.

14 TDs, 2 INTs and 4-3

I would glady take a couple more INTs for 16-20 TDs and be 5,6 or 7 wins.

Well, OK. Even if I'm the only one to say it:

Way to go, Aaron! Woo hoo!

That's a tremendous group of quarterbacks listed there in the top 10, and you're friggin' leading the list.

Woo hoo! Way to go! That's awesome, dude!

We're 4-3, and it's not the QBs fault. Cut the man some slack.

Man, this place is just getting too depressing. One of our players is not only mixed in with the elite at his position but is ahead of them all. Go back and look at those names on that list.

Is this what we've degenerated too? Whining about our top-of-the-league-rated quarterback? Who's in his second year as a starter??? Who's playing behind a line that does things like give Jared Allen a clear, unabated shot at the QB??? Who's doing it without a running game to slow down the pass rush???

Our record is not Rodgers fault. Go look at the Derek Anderson/JaMarcus Russell's of the world and be saying your prayers every night that nothing happens to Rodgers--because if it does, our season is SO over...

Man, I've got to go...this is just way too depressing...

I agree, I don't blame our loses, on Aaron, he is playing pretty darn good football.

That doesn't mean that things couldn't be different. Aaron keeps playing like he is, and I will be very happy. That doesn't mean that I can't think if he took a couple more chances here and there, that he could be better.

He is too busy running for his life or laying on his back to take chances. He is already taking plenty of chances by playing behind that oline 😛

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.
buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.
beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal
