And yet, he makes plays like the MVS bomb. A highlights camera showed Rodgers' face in the pocket. His eyes make 5 reads with the ball in his hands before winding up for the throw. 60 yards in the air.

Does this mean Mike McCarthy = Mike Holmgren?

If Rodgers would have had Holmgren as a coach (or Holmgren would have had Rodgers instead of Favre), they'd have 3-4 rings. Of course, if MM and Rodgers would have had a player like Reggie White, they'd have more rings too.

he is awesome, come on - you know i think about the candor of the interviews with macaffee, can't help but think there's got to be some P.O. factor with the local gb reporters that they can't get into AR like Pat can.  Dude gave a 25min interview, I don't think I've seen that before AR Tuesday's on that show...I like just getting to know AR in a shoot the shit kind of way.

Favre only played one more season under Holmgren than he did under Sugar Bear. Throw in that Rhodes year and he's 50% Holmgren before you get to his two years with MM.

It was obvious that Favre was physically talented as soon as you saw him play, but he didn't begin to get the mental part of it until the end of 1995. It was that Chicago game that year where he seemed to make the leap. In the last 6 regular season games of that year, the Packers were 5-1 and Favre threw 21 TDs against 2 interceptions. If you include the next two years (the Super Bowl years), the Packers had a stretch where they were 31-7 in regular season games and Favre threw 95 TDs against 31 TDs. The rest of his career, Favre had a 413/305 ratio. The Packers pissed away 3 years in Favre's prime (1998-2000) when Holmgren was barely engaged on his way to Seattle (1998), Ray Rhodes was head coach (1999), and Sherman was cleaning up Rhodes mess (2000). Favre threw 83 TDs and 62 interceptions in those 3 years. He was never really the same after Holmgren left. He was one of the top 5 QBs I've ever watched from 1995-1997 and was essentially a slightly better version of Jay Culter the remainder of his career - a physically talented guy who could make all the throws but who even in his good seasons would lose games for you with boneheaded decisions.

Favre with that 1995-1997 stretch removed. 413 TDs/305 Int. 1.35 ratio

Culter career. 227 TDs/160 Int. 1.41 ratio.

Couple days old but wanted to point it out on X4.

Some more Ho-Hum for ya...

You guys all think about that....

Mike Evans, Godwin, Gronk, Brate, Rookie WR (forget his name) vs. Adams, MVS, ESB, Lazard (NOW), Tonyan.

Lily Zhao is cool

Brady has better weapons but Rodgers is a much better QB.

Brady also has a good defense behind him. Brady without BB is 7-5, BB without Brady is 5-6. It should be obvious that it wasn’t one or the other that made those SBs happen, it was the combination.

Meanwhile MM is 3-8 without Rodgers, and Rodgers without MM is 22-7.

But....but...but last night I heard the Monday Night Goofballs say Russel Wilson was the greatest deep passer of all time.

Not certain which rookie you’re referring to, maybe Tyler Johnson. But you left Antonio Brown off your list.  And Scottie Miller.
