AR.... He is still playing.

AR, he plays with his head. BF was tough and had alot of heart, at least back in the day, but he played on adrenaline. Holmgren was always getting down on him for getting bored and throwing rocketballs. Aaron Rodgers plays with ice in his veins. He's clutch when it counts, as you can see by his 3rd down efficiency. He does everything the right way too, from his mechanics on the field to his conduct in the locker room and off the field.
Now as for offensive coordinator? I'd take Holmgren from back in the day over today's MM. I'm more of a high percentage, fundamentals guy.

I’d take Rodgers. He’s the ice man. It was a joy to watch Favre scramble around, see the look on his face in replays when he was looking for an open guy. But Rodgers... it’s just scary how calm he is on every down. He’s like an assassin. Favre may have had a rocket arm, but Rodgers’ arm is a spinfusor .

What about...

...this guy? I know it’s impossible to compare, but whatdaya think?

1. Starr.
(gap)
3. Rodgers.
4. Favre

5 championships.

That said, I won't be surprised if he passes Starr some day. But until Rodgers gets at least 2 more rings, that gap stays for me.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Agreed of course that Starr is the best ever.

If accuracy is a skill, Rodgers is well above Favre.

Favre is top 50 all time if you look at average performance.

Rodgers is top 10.

I think the biggest difference is that Rodgers prepares like his life depends on it. Favre wouldn't prepare if his life depended on it.

If Favre worked as hard as Montana or Rodgers off the field he would have been best ever on the field.

It is a true testament to Favre's talent that he could be top 50 all time without even trying. Too bad he only tried for 2 years in his career. '07 and '09.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
