At the very moment you are reading this, Aaron Rodgers is better than Brett Favre.

Right now, who are you taking at the quarterback position for a game tomorrow? Who do you trust?

Frankly, it's easy.

Favre was turnover prone yet again with two more picks in the Jets' horrendous loss to the Raiders in Oakland. And Michael Huff should've had a third pick in overtime. Favre's pick at the end of regulation didn't have a Jet target in the state of California. The Jets are 3-3, and Favre has been reckless with the football in losses to New England, San Diego and the lowly Raiders.

Rodgers, meanwhile, is wowing everyone in Green Bay with his toughness and excellent play. He was sensational in back-to-back wins at Seattle and last Sunday at home in what turned out to be a laugher against the Colts. Rodgers has been brilliant delivering the football to a bevy of targets while protecting the pigskin. In talking to Rodgers last week, he agreed that the win in Seattle was his best performance of the season.

Rodgers told me that his "take a deep breath" moment wasn't the win against the Vikings in Week 1. It was in the nationally televised preseason game against the Bengals when he played well and the fans gave him a standing ovation. Rodgers said it became the team he was responsible for piloting.

And then there is Jay Glazer's FOXSports.com exclusive that said Favre called Lions coaches before the Week 2 matchup to give them exactly what Green Bay runs. That's bush-league. There are players in that Green Bay locker room that would've run through a brick wall for Favre.

Who do you want as your quarterback? Who do you trust? It's never been so easy.

...those were Drew Brees stats his first year in New Orleans

He was also coming off of major shoulder surgery. The new system excuse is tired. It was an excuse for maybe the first couple of weeks. After that, no. I know stats aren't everything but Favre has 11 picks (leads the league as of this post) on the season and is on pace for 25. Rodgers is on pace for 9. Favre has also been extremely inconsistent. Outside of the Arizona game he has 9 tds and 10 ints. I don't care how you cut it that's not good. Do I think Favre is playing as poorly as those stats suggest? No. But I do think that Rodgers has outplayed Favre thus far.
