Rodgers won't win for the same reasons Marvin Harrison never won.

The only thing Freeman should have downplayed about our team was how well Rodgers has been doing with a craptacular offensive line.
Yes, they have shaped up the past couple of games but if you were to look at every quarterback on the list, they have a great offensive line + weapons surrounding them.

Unfortunately, he did take the Favre/Rodgers angle but he sorta had to.

It is interesting that the majority of the MVP 'candidates' play their home games in a dome. Hmm.

What you say? Controlled/Warmer climate = ability to be more consistent?

And this is the shame with Rodgers: He's mostly ignored in the media's MVP discussion because many in the press are in the bag for Brett Favre. So many writers have fetishized their Favre slobbering, they refuse to see just how great -- yes, great -- Rodgers is currently playing.

After all, if you're fetishizing Favre, how could you dare say anything nice about Rodgers?



How can anyone take an article serious with writing like this?
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

The writer brought up a few good points. Although, I don't think Rodgers is being ignored because of any one player, more so because he's only a second year starter and people haven't had time to get a boner to fantasize about his every move, yet.

He's largely ignored because he doesn't seek attention and the reason I mentioned previously.

I don't take many of these MVP articles too seriously. I find that most of them are bias, just like this guy.

Urgh. Did the article really have to go on and on about Favre? I'm really getting tired of the comparisons and stopped reading after about the 3rd time they mentioned his name.

Aaron isn't 3rd. He's about 4th right now behind Brees, Manning, and Favre. Like it or not, Favre is 2nd in the NFL in passer rating and is #1 in TD vs INTs. Brees is #1 in rating and #1 in TDs thrown. Brees and Manning are leading undefeated teams.

The bummer about Aaron has NOTHING to do with Favre and everything to do with our team "only" being 8-4 while there are still 2 teams that haven't lost yet.

I don't like the comparisons either, but it is the elephant in the room. He's stating the obvious. Some people still view Favre as Mr. Packer and it's hard to give a lot of credit to Rodgers when Favre is still playing at a high level.

I personally think Rodgers is ignored because of that and well because Minnesota put a whoopin on the Packers in the first half of the season.

However, you could argue, had GB won those games, Rodgers is probably No. 2 in the MVP voting right now.
