In a few years time he won't even be in the top 2 for all time best Packers QB.
Eric Maynor is the worst basketball player I've ever seen.

I wouldn't go that far.
Rodgers has to play at a elite levels for years to sniff farve IMO.
But farve is not the best all time...

A's over Royals. Lester and experience will prove that he's worth the trade.

Tigers winning it all. Tigers are, imo, peaking at the right time.

Rodgers is already the best Packers QB, but Favre is 2nd.

I think Rodgers will be elite for a while. He's still fairly young and the Pack organization do a great job of drafting and developing talent around him. He's already matched Favre in the Super Bowls won category and he won't come close to the interceptions record.

He probably won't come close to the TD record either.
Idk he's young but he has to stay healthy.

He hasn't achieved anything farve hasn't to already crown Rodgers 1st is premature.

Farve 1x champ
3x MVP
Most passing TDs all time
Most INTs all time. (Lol)

But like I said Rodgers has to prove it for another decade

He's also passed for more yards in Super Bowls than any other QB. It's not his fault they lost two of them.

He'd probably be my pick too.

He's got about as good of an argument as anyone else.

Impossible to really "prove" who the GOAT is though.

Most "great" quarterbacks are chokers. Warner isn't one.

No, he always played his best on the biggest stage.

This doesn't make sense. You can't be a great QB if you're a choker.

None of the super elite QBs have ever been chokers, they just happened to be human and had failures like anyone else.
