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.

I don't see Chris Harper muscling his way onto this roster. Unless Janis can't catch.

Face it, the championships argument will always be used when it supports your claim and dismissed when it does not.

Just as some fans will continually tell rival fans to quit living in the past in one breath and bring up any number of past accomplishments from their team in the next.

Whatever works to your advantage I suppose.

I wonder if it works with other positions as well? Was Max McGee a better WR than Calvin Johnson? He must be, he has two rings has two SB rings to megatron's zero.

I'm aware it will probably never go away, but it's not going to stop me from dispising it as an argument. It's, at best, intellectually dishonest, which is I suppose the point you're making about whatever works to your advantage.

I know we are off the rails again but Otto Graham is commonly offered up as one of the best ever (I still say Unitas). The problem with such arguments is that you are comparing different eras and not taking into account a lot of other factors like matchups and the rest of the team. Is Brad Johnson or Trent Dilfer greater than Dan Marino?

Pittsburgh fans commonly discount any championship that takes place before the Super Bowl era like winning it all with a much higher talent pool doesn't count.

Brett Favre was not responsible for stopping Terrel Davis. Otto Graham never faced Deacon Jones. Dan Marino never got to hand off to Hornung and Taylor.

Tarvaris Jackson also has a SB ring. He's clearly among the greats.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Gosh, did I ignite this "RING" firestorm? And just by commenting that Aaron Rodgers is the greatest QB in this history of the world? Actually, I didn't even word it right; I shoulda said Rodgers WILL BE the greatest QB in history by the time he his done. Right now, that honor goes to BRETT FAVRE!

Jump Ball hahahaha.

I say again, Bart Starr was the hero of the team I loved growing up. However, who you have playing with you and coaching makes a huge difference in winning championships. It also makes a difference who is playing against you, including how many teams are even in the league.

I would take Aaron Rodgers 10 times out of 10 over Brett Favre even if Aaron's career was already over today.

beast (5h) : Oh yes, sometimes they make using a cellphone tough. I just wanted to make sure it was the correct article, & thank you for pointing it out.

jdlax (6h) : I can't believe one of my teams went out and wablammo just up and acquired one of the best players in the world overnight

dfosterf (11h) : I do very much appreciate when Beast and others pick up my slack 😊

dfosterf (11h) : I accept Beast's admonishment regarding my failure to link stuff I reference. I simply never learned to link from my cell phone.

beast (11h) : That's not what your she said 😌, she said keep going 😏

Mucky Tundra (14h) : Anything over 4 hours means he needs to get to the hospital

Mucky Tundra (14h) : Someone might want to check on Hafley and make sure his erection has gone down

Zero2Cool (16h) : LaFleur texts "bleep me I cannot sit down"

Zero2Cool (16h) : YouTube has had me last hour or two lol

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Ugh this trade happened right as my shift started and it's killing me

Zero2Cool (17h) : Parsons wore 23 in high school.

Zero2Cool (17h) : Packers just cost Lions more money with Hutchinson too huh

Zero2Cool (18h) : That is fair by me.

buckeyepackfan (18h) : Kenny Clark is the player, 2 1st rnd picks

Zero2Cool (18h) : umm... what?

wpr (18h) : I am stunned

Mucky Tundra (18h) : RICKEY SCOOPS WAS RIGHT AGAIN!!!

Mucky Tundra (18h) : ITS HAPPENING

buckeyepackfan (18h) : DEAL IS DONE

buckeyepackfan (19h) : MICAH IS COMING TO GREEN BAY!!!!!!!!!

wpr (28-Aug) : Me do-ed it gooderly,

Zero2Cool (28-Aug) : Bahah, I was like WTF why isn't anyone posting on PP.com ... oops no one has permissions

dfosterf (27-Aug) : tell her I reckon

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Micah Robinson cut. Probable PS player tomorrow. Has to call mom back and t

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : New site so much better. Might make switch and deal with it.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Mecole Hardman to our practice squad

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Unfortunately he doesn't seem ready to be an emergency QB.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : As a Canadian and a follower of Canadian University football. I am rooting for him

dfosterf (27-Aug) : I bet a lot of us will follow the Taylor Elgersma journey with interest. Personally, got a Kurt Warner vibe goin' on. I like him

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Not sure if either will be claimed though.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Tune or Hooker would make sense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Clayton Tune cut by the Cards? Don't know if that's the guy, we shall see

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Per Bill Huber, the Packers will not be bringing back Taylor Elgersma or Sean Clifford on the practice squad, so a new third quarterback

Mucky Tundra (27-Aug) : Schefter must have deleted his tweet

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Hopefully Jerry reaches under the seat cushions and ashtrays of his jet and scrapes up the 45 million apr and spares us further nonsense

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Have to admit the PO'd Cowboy fan videos would be fun to watch. Problem with draft picks is half their fanbase barely knows what that is

beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah

dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work

dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n

packerfanoutwest (27-Aug) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.

dfosterf (27-Aug) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : what is Schefter saying?

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He was getting Dorito infusion therapy

dfosterf (27-Aug) : He's outta shape. Why, just the other day I saw him splayed out on the trainers table
