Is Aaron Rodgers Better than Favre?

[Rey Negro]

Did Brett play in the same era as Rodgers?

YES HE DID. and he threw picks especially in big moments

If u put prime favre in this era he'd do exactly what he did in the 90's...

Throw picks.

Rodgers is a better decision maker no matter what era were talking about.

Stop saying this. Its irritating. Favre wasn't in his prime since the 90s and he still had probably his best year in 2009. I feel almost stupid that we have to make this distinction to you.

 

[Mvpbrodie93]

His best season was 2009.

And Arod this year is shitting on it, just like he's shitting on Favre's 3 year MVP stretch 95-97.

It's really not as hard as your making it, Rodgers now is better then favre has ever been.

Aaron Rodgers got the Packers off to a 9–0 start in 2011. Rodgers played the best half of a season in his career, throwing for 2,869 yards, 28 touchdowns and just 3 interceptions, good for a passer rating of 130.7. These numbers earned him the NFC Offensive Player of the Month award for September and October, and FedEx Air Player of the Week four times (Weeks 4, 5, 6, & 7). Through week 10 of the season, Rodgers has had a passer rating of at 110 or greater in every game, the only QB in NFL history to accomplish this feat.

Threw 8 games

Brett Favre, 1996:*

158/271, 58.3%, 1965 yards, 7.3 Y/A, 21 TD, 6 INT, 97.5 QB Rating*

Rodgers through week 8*

192/265, 72.5%, 2619 yards, 9.9 Y/A, 24 TD, 3 INT, 129.1 QB Rating*

Come on son

]And rodgers is on pace to blow any favre season out of the water... So what's your point?[/B]

You pointed to interceptions... And I showed you Arod is the least intercepted QB of all time.

Again no one has been able to tell me why he's better then Arod. What does favre in his prime do better then Arod right now?

All I get is legacy, career and 90's Memories.

One season and he's better? I'm just gonna say this and its a wrap, i can tell your kinda young cuz niggas always try to bring up that its based on memories and nostalgia...Tony Romo has had a better season than Jim Kelly, Troy Aikman, and Johnny Unitas has ever had. A couple of good seasons doesn't all of sudden make you greater than someone who's remained a great quarterback over a longer period of time. Thats whats wrong with people nowadays..thats why you have people putting Obama who just got here on the same pedestal as Malcolm and Martin. We live in the "now" and don't respect history in all aspects of life.

Some niggas dont get excited over who ESPN is dickriding. Some niggas have more respect for Legends.

Yall Green Bay fans are disgusting. Brett should be God status FOREVER up there for the 20 years he kept yall bullshit town in the headlines. First second you get a QB that has one magical year yall start putting him over yall King. I swear I will DIE LAUGHING if Aaron Rodgers ever leaves Green Bay in free agency.

 

[Mvpbrodie93]

@DMV

Not one season 2009 to now Rodgers has been dominant. Especially in the playoffs. He just does it better and more efficiently.

Why do people think one year? He's been GREAT from 2008 till now and is WAAAAY more clutch

And since this thread has gone 11 pages and no one has told me what favre does better I think people agree

I appreciate history, but if your better your just BETTER. I'm not the type of dude that waits to see if someone is better.

Let me ask u something.... If you see a guy come into the league and is better then Jordan at every aspect of the game, has a better year then Jordan ever had and wins the chip, youd wait 6 or 7 years to say he was better? Even tho that one year he was better then Jordan ever was?

I wouldn't I call it how I see it.

Its simple:

Sayin Aron Rodgers SHOULD go on to be better all-time than Favre = AGREEABLE.

Sayin Aaron Rodgers WILL be better than Brett Favre- = prisoner of the moment-ish, too soon, but i see why you say it

Sayin Aaron Rodgers IS better than Brett Fvare, right now = Your mic is now turned off.

Co-sign shit is disgusting. I'm not gonna sit here and act like Aaron Rodgers isn't turning into a fucking monster but, can y'all wait at least another three seasons before you start putting him over a legend to see if his play is still consistent?

Cosign...I see alot of deflecting goin on in here....Point blank, Favre doesn't do a single thing at the position that Rodgers doesn't do equally OR better.....I understand what niggas sayin bout the legacy and longevity and that's cool, cuz it obviously gives Favre the nod over Rodgers from a CAREER standpoint just cuz of the fact that his career is already over and the numbers he amassed are off the charts cuz he played for 20 years.....But, if you argue that Rodgers isn't playing better football right now than Favre ever played at any point of his career, your either blind, a hater, or don't know what the hell you talkin bout...His skill set and decision making kills Favre's and I don't even think that's debatable....Favre cost his team the game many times with that gunslinger mind frame in 4th quarters....Most notably to me, when he threw us into the Super Bowl wit that pick to Corey Wester....That's the reason I'll always like Favre, so I'll never talk too much shit about him lol.......But anyway, this discussion is gonna be laughable in a few more seasons when ya'll finally start seeing what's been obvious.....

Cosign all of this fam. Until someone makes some real arguments I'm done with this thread

Right...b/c what i posted just REAKS of those things...??? Nggas man

Shame on me for havin a unbiased, rational view on this shyt smh

The ngga is on pace, but he's a pup dude. Daunte Culpeeper was on pace to be a great...Drew brees was JUST Aaron Rodgers 2 years ago...

 

[CoolJoe]

Earlier on 1st and 10 they did the best 16 game stretch of each players career(I'm guessing it was their best stretch).

Favre had like 49TD/7INT in his best stretch, while Rodgers had 42/7INT(Rodgers shit obviously includes the 9 games he's played this year, and the last 7 from last year).

That 49/7 ratio is something serious haha, I was surprised as fuck.
