He's an all-time great but why are we acting like he's still the league's best QB or even in the top 3? Everyone fears the greats but all we can judge them on is their performance and Rodgers is not going to suddenly torch us for 450 yards and 5 TDs. It's a team game, QB will not win this game alone, not with how balanced we are on both sides.
Does the team with the best QB win the SB ever year? Hell no.
He can still make some crazy ass plays happen so he's always super dangerous but yes this season he has not been the guy who strikes fear into teams.
Very real argument to be made that Jimmy has had a better season but we'll see what happens Sunday.
Hopefully we make him look like a rookie again but it's a tough ask to do twice in one year.
No way he lays another egg like last time but I think that the weapons on O we played last week against the Vikings are superior to what GB has.
GB can put together 2-2.5 strong quarters, then they seemingly run out of gas. There is a reason this is a 13 win team with the lowest point differential ever (some of that is on our beating but it is still low regardless).
We have played more mobile QBs who were just as good at passing (Wilson), we have played superior pocket passers (Brees) and we have come out on top. I don't think Rodgers will surprise us. Perhaps some roll outs like the Rams did to us, put him on the move more but with Kwon back, some of that underneath crap should be taken away.
I like the matchup. I hate playing great QBs but it's the NFCC, we were going to play someone great. At this point in their careers, I fear Wilson more, I think that playing Rodgers is the lesser of the two evils.
