14 in Green Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 I’d take the one Super Bowl win and the playoff appearances in a second. The next decade will be very interesting, with so many teams seemingly having found young FQBs. It will be fun seeing how championships are carved up between guys like Goff, Wentz, Mahomes, Watson, Trubisky, Darnold, Mayfield, Allen, Rose, Garaffollo, Wilson, etc. it’s looks like we could be about to witness a Golden Age of Quarterbacking.

joenamathwouldn'tcry Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Looks okay to me. Especially the regular season. The playoffs are the playoffs, {so I've been told} so you've got to get there first. I would take our chances with this kind of result. Is the playoff mediocrity an indictment of Rodgers, McCarthy, or maybe a little of both; just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbatesman Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 The thing that’s always struck me is that Rodgers’ record in tight games isn’t so hot. PFR says he’s only got 14 fourth-quarter comebacks, which is fewer than far younger (and far lesser) QBs like Derek Carr and Andy Dalton and even Ryan Tannehill. Ditto game-winning drives. Rodgers has 22, which puts him in league with Dalton and Joe Flacco; Eli and Matts Stafford and Ryan are all in the 30s and Roethlisberger, Brady, and Brees are all in the 40s. Weird.

The Crusher Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 2 hours ago, T0mShane said: I think what the league needs to do is exempt a percentage of QB salaries from counting against the cap because it’s ludicrous to have an elite QB go out on a football field every week with cut-rate guards, tackles, and receivers because the team can no longer afford to pay anyone else. Teams shouldn’t be financially punished for drafting and developing an elite QB when they’re ready to compete for titles. It’s stupid and rewards bad teams for not being able to find a decent QB Now that we have probably found one I couldn’t agree more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodgers is just a different dude, mentally. I’m not sure if he’s just an introverted genius-type who happens to throw a football well, or if he’s just a straight-up loon that nobody really likes. When you’re not producing comebacks and 4th quarter numbers on par with Flacco and Matt Ryan, with that kind of sample size, there’s really something missing with the guy.

Jets86 Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 If I wanted to win my fantasy pool, I take Marino & Rodgers. If I wanted to see a team win a championship, I take Namath & Montana. Aaron Rodgers is the Wade Boggs of Football. Wade would get a few hits every game. With the game on the line, he rarely came through. But the stats would look pretty enough that he would get a pass.

I'd be curious to see what drives they take into consideration. I think impact scores in Q4 & OT would give us a clearer picture. For example, in Arizona a couple of years ago for either WC or divisional round, IIRC he led two game tying drives in the 4th quarter only to have the defense give the lead back and eventually lose it in OT. I don't think the stats you've posted accounts for those, whereas an impact score would. Similarly, an impact score would show how vital he was to putting the Packers in position to win the NFCCG in Seattle 3 or 4 years ago but the defense and ST lost the game. This was the game where ESPN was trying to show off their "analytics" and posted the packers win probability at over 90% because they were up 2 scores with something like 3 or 4 mins left, only to have defensive and ST blunders and seattle walk off with a win. I don't think Aaron even got to see the field again and they went home while Sea went on to lose the SB on the malcom butler play. There were also three games this year where Aaron didn't even get an opportunity for a potential game winning/tying drive at the end because of defense/ST/his supporting cast fumbling the ball away.

Yeah, both are flawed stats for sure, especially for a guy who’s played with some mediocre (or worse) defenses. As just raw numbers though, they do seem kind of odd.

Just wait a year or two after he retires, when it’s not quite so obvious, Brady WILL sign a very lucrative lifetime “personal services” contract with the team to act as an “ambassador” to compensate him for the discounts over the years. Part of the terms is he’s a Pat for life. It’s alteady a handshake deal with Kraft. Hence the Grappalo move that angered Bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a question you could basically ask a fan of any team I think.. "You will have a record setting, arguably top 5 QB in the history of the NFL. You will win 1 Super Bowl. How do you feel?" And I'm not saying the answer to that question is "good!" or "bad!"... I can understand why asking the question in the first place maybe leans towards me criticizing Rodger's and the Packers results, but that's not the case. I'm just interested to hear people's thought processes and such. It's fun to see how people tick. Can’t imagine an answer other than “a Super Bowl would be amazing” from Jets fans older than 25.

Beerfish Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 No i disagree about the QB exempt idea. The cap is monstrous as it is. 1) Do not give out the big deal to the one off QB who is not really a franchise guy (ie Joe Flacco). Kirk Cousins to a team whose coach wants to run 35 times a game. 2) Spend wisely. Look at the jets biggest contracts lately, revis, mo wilk, tru johsnon, all bums. As for Rogers, great Qb but also a tad over rated. He has the same # of super bowls as brad johnson and flacco etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
