I think Jennings is making him look a bit better than he really is....

I think it goes both ways. Of course a good reciever is going to bring out the best of a quarterback. And the more good recievers the better the QB is going to look. Look at Peyton Manning. Now he has a lot of talent by himself, but he also has great recievers, makes him even better. I dont know so much that it makes the quarterback look better, I think it makes them better...

Good point. One thing I've admired about the Colts offense over the years is the hours put in outside of practice by Manning and his receivers to be the best they can be together. They didn't just coast by on talent alone, but they put in the effort to maximize their talent.

I think was Roddy was saying was this....

Gregorious = God. God + anyone, makes them better.

Why would we think that Gregarious would EVER miss a ball intended for him....or someone else..... or anyone else.

I just don't get it.. this is the same receiving corp and line as last year.. so maybe the receivers have been bailing out QB's in Green Bay for a while. ;)

Of course it takes two to tango.. so giving him props isn't out of the question..

We have talented receivers that is for sure but the guys flinging the football for the past two years definitely had just as much to do with it.

The pass to Jennings in this game for the TD reminded me of the Favre to Jennings pass vs. KC last year, except into a smaller window (tighter coverage), 5 yards longer, and with a hurt shoulder.

So I'll tweak Roddy's statement a bit and say Rodgers' playing makes him look better than he really is. ;)

Favre put his deep passes in a way that the WR can still run. Rodgers doesn't seem to do that. When he completes a deep pass, the WR gets tackled immediately.

I've discussed that before. I don't know whether you actually crunched numbers and watched game film to make that statement, or you're going by memory, but I recall off the top of my head a number of situations where Favre did not "hit his man on the run" on a deep pass, during last year alone.

So... lemme see if I've got this straight... I'm a little slow, so you'll have to forgive me. Age, you know. So what you're saying is: Favre - awesome, Rodgers - average and lucky? Is that it?

At least you're consistent - consistent like a broken record, but consistent.

Would it seriously kill you to just let one thread complimenting the kid go untouched by your consistency? You could start like 50 of your own in the Favre section if you wanted, you know.

Damn you Ted Thompson!!! Why couldn't we still have sh*t receivers on this team so we could make an appropriate comparison between Rodgers and Favre!
