Why are we comparing Rodgers to Favre?

If you still can't get figure out why Rodgers is the Packers' starting QB then look at it this way.

Rodgers is 26.

Favre is 40.

I don't get the stat comparisons between Favre at 26 and Rodgers at 26. They played in two different eras. How many 4,000 yard passers were there this year? How many 100+ QB ratings were there? The DB's can't do anything in this era of the NFL. Teams have figured that out and all they do is throw (and it works).

Thats why I laugh when people say that Favre is having his best season ever. He's not. In 1995, Favre had 4400 yards and 38 Tds (and 13 ints). I think that year no one had a 100 Qb rating, not even Favre. Now you have 6-7 guys at 100 Qb ratings.

I'm not saying Favre is better than Rodgers (at 26 or at 40 for that matter), I'm not getting into that, I know better because both sides are emotionally attached to their positionsbut IMO you cannot compare the two eras.

Also IMO Favre's best year BY FAR was 1995. How is this year his best year ever, because he threw less 6 less INT's and had a higher QB rating??? The Qb rating is a joke, especially now because the offense can complete 3-5 yard dinky passes at will because the DBs cannot play physical.

I really thought all the Favre/Rodgers stuff would be done by now. What is left to be said that hasn't been said a hundred times already? I don't think it matters who our QB was yesterday. We don't win that game with the D we put on the field.

But it will NEVER be done..

And some wonder why people snap and get nasty when it comes to this shit

but I do know this..The Packer haters bring up Brett and what he COULD have done here more than what the Brett haters bring up

Rodgers is not Favre


Favre is not Rodgers


Why is it so hard to leave it at that. I feel pretty lucky to have seen Favres entire Packer career, and now Rodgers. And back Dickey before that.

I wouldn't trade Rodgers for any combination of players and draft choices right now. I can't even conceive of a trade I would make involving Rodgers.

(And I'm one of those who thought/thinks Favre got hosed by Thompson and, especially, McCarthy.)

If he doesn't improve over this year, Rodgers is going to be damn good. And if he does improve, it's a gonna be scary. Hitchcock-quality scary.

In my opinion he is as good, right now, as any other quarterback playing. And if he continues to grow? Well, anyone remember what Ron Wolf said about Favre sometime in early/mid-nineties, something to the effect that he'll do things no one ever did before? Well, that's the way I feel about Rodgers right now.

For everyone *but* Packer fans.

Because I think the only thing Packer fans need to worry about at the QB position are injury and the possibility that they will not be able to afford Rodgers' next contract.
