REALLY 6th?? Just now on NFL network

OK - but he is #1 on the $100,000 Pyramid and in our hearts. If he won SBs like he does game shows, they would rename the SB the Green Bay Open.
The Top 100 has become a joke. The players vote in early December, and I'll wager even fewer vote for this than the Pro Bowl. And, oh yeah, re the latter, the players get paid and a free vacation and maybe a yellow jacket down the line based on THOSE results. Not some talking head exercise. I do like the video packages though. Ed and Steve Steve Sabol still live on.
Need I remind anybody how Rodgers blew the league away just before that December timeframe and certainly thereafter? Best all-around QB play I ever saw.
Despite my rational protests, I'm okay with AR12 being only sixth. He's always looking for some chip to knock off of the collective's shoulder (s).
I didn't realize five guys passed Rodgers on Goldie's list of boyfriends.
Well maybe I am in the minority on this kind of stuff but a players poll and a power poll are about the same thing to me and that is useless. I am more concerned with the team fielding a better defense than if he is #6
A WR or Def. Player should never be ranked ahead of a top-tier QB.
It's a stupid list & I laughed when I saw Rodgers at #6. Especially when the 5 players "ahead" of him would secretly admit Rodgers belongs ahead of all of them.
The worst travesty is Dak Prescott at #14 overall. He shouldn't even be in the top 100
FYI...Davante Adams was #101
We know it's not 5 players better than Arod right?!?! https://t.co/DZaXQa92ey

Dying laughing I was 101 on the #NFLTop100 lol ������

But he is #1 in game shows and in our hearts. Right?
Same thing every year. You ask 31 GM's which player they'd take today if they could pick any player in football and 90% plus would take Rodgers. (Speilman would take Johnny Manzeil)
You ask the fans of all 32 teams and 75% of those fans would quietly take Rodgers in a heartbeat. There might even be some Pat fans that would trade Brady in for AR. 100% of Viking fans would privately take AR in a heartbeat while telling you publicly that they'll never repeat the Favre mistake again. They are such a petty group of dooshbags.
Disappointed Arod made the top 10. Can you imagine the size of the chip if he'd come in at #16?
Yes. Rodgers Behind Dak would've been fabulous.
I'm sure all the Matty slush fans are PO'd he isn't higher than 10
Hard to imagine how far the Falcons are gonna fall this year after that collapse in the Super Bowl. Look what happened to the Niners with a much less monumental choke.
If Rodgers was on the Falcons last year, Anyone think the Falcons still choke?
That choke is all on MattY Puddles.

So many more things doomed the niners after that loss. ATL may self correct a bit lower but they're still a young team, maybe even still improving on D. We'll see how injuries treat them this year.
If Steve Sarkisian can stay sober for the whole season they may be alright, or he may screw up the whole offense.

As long as the chip is a log he can't lift - I guess we will be alright. Personally, I think we should turn football into a TV game called "Super Bowl or Bust". AR would probably win it 3 straight times.
Time to change "Super Bowl or Bust" to "Super Bowl or Dom"?

I agree he shouldn't even be in the top 100 he was decent but he wasn't the second coming of Joe Montana last year like the media wants you to think. I guess when you play for the Cowboys (the most over rated sports team of the last 20 years) you get extra votes.
I missed the media calling him the second coming of Joe Montana.
I don't think The Heckler was claiming some in the media compared Dak to Montana, but the slurping in '16 was prevalent.
Oh no I wasn't saying they called him the 2nd coming of Montana only saying the ball nuzzling makes it feel like they think he is the next one.

If you asked Belichick if he'd take Rodgers or Brady, he'd take Rodgers.
The simplest way to think about it is to predict what would happen if the two guys switched teams. Brady is an all-time great, but there no way the Packers win 10 games or get to the conference title game with Brady. He doesn't have the physical ability to run for his life like Rodgers does. Put Rodgers on the Patriots in place of Brady and they don't lose anything.
Actually, all we'd really have to do is to trade DCs. Let Dom Capers run the Patriots defense and Belichick run the Packers defense. That would be more than enough.

True!

The word "dynasty" comes to mind if this were to happen!
Is Fandame the Joan Collins or Linda Evans character?

There - fixed that for you.
Super Bowl or Dom.
From Elisha Twerski....
Ten QB's in NFL history have thrown 300 or more TD passes. Aaron will be the 11th (has has 297).
However, Aaron will be the first QB to reach 300 TD's before throwing 100 INT's. When Tom Brady reached 300 TD's he only had 115 INT's. Easily the best ratio of all the QB's that got to 300.
It's actually not out of the question Aaron might reach 400 TD's before he throws 100 INT's. That's becasue Aaron has only thrown 72 INT's in his career. More than 40 fewer than Brady when he reached 300.
6th on the list my ass.
Well, Kalil Mack, he hit the QB really hard that one time.
ChilliJon posted:It's actually not out of the question Aaron might reach 400 TD's before he throws 100 INT's. That's because Aaron has only thrown 72 INT's in his career.
Based on his pace it's probable that he will accomplish that. He's averaged 8 INTs per year since becoming a starter in '08. Based on that he should reach 100 INTs in 56 games. He's thrown 33 TDs per year in the same span, so in 56 games he should have 412 TDs.
Rodgers, he's pretty good.
Holds the ball too long.
No 4th quarter comebacks.
Needs to take more chances.
Misses too many games.
Aaron Rodgers 2017
2 TD's - 28 INT's
Fra-Gee-Lay!
