    So without Rodgers the Packers wouldn't have given up all those points?
    Without Rodgers they would have scored MORE points?

    Please, he's the reason we had CHANCE considering how our defense played.

    realpackerbacker do you really think Favre would've brought us a better record last season? If so you're a fool. No QB except Rodgers could've played that well behind our pathetic excuse for an o-line. Don't believe me, just think about Favre playing behind that line: a 40 year old who's about as mobile as a turtle trying to make plays with less than a second to throw. Every game would be as punishing as the Saints game. Favre would have either been sacked more or made more wild throws under pressure causing more ints.

    Aaron was HANDED the job. He didn't beat Brett for anything. Ted made the decision prior to 3/4/07...why do you think Brett retired and came back? To show up Thompson! Man why does nobody get this!

    You're right I did say 'look at the record we probably could have had' meaning with Brett had Ted not shafted him...and forced him to retire then out of GB when he decided he wasn't gonna let Ted write the final chapter of his career. I can only assume because Teddy F'ed everything up!

    And you're right...I AM a troll I DO post inflammatory things here...I'm sorry that I'm not a TT butt-kissing lemming like the rest of the posters here. I'm sorry that I can make informed decisions based on what I hear from ALL media outlets not just the Milwaukee and Green Bay media. Sorry!

    Did I cheer Brett to beat the Packers? No.

    You want stats: Favre has won more games since the start of the '08 season than Rodgers.

    Favre has won more playoff games than Rodgers.

    Favre by himself has lost the same number of playoff games BY HIMSELF as Rodgers.

    Favre has had a .500 or better record each season in both 2008 and 2009. Rodgers had a 6-10 record in 2008.

    Aaron is no more than a cross between Don Majikowski and Jeff George. In 2 years he'll be at the very least out of Green Bay if not the league. Graham Harrell will more than likely be the starter once that happens.

    Rodgers accounted 1/3 of his sack totals last year...why? Cause the man can't count to 4. Now maybe 1/3 is a bit high, but the point remains he can't count to 4.

    As far as 2 of the games you quote as being "Favre's fault". The Atlanta game as stated in a previous post, which had you read you'd know this I said the Atlanta game was lost because the D Coordinator forgot to scheme to keep tabs on Michael Vick. If it's the game I'm thinking of Vick ran all over Lambeau. How can that be blamed on Favre?

    As far as the Eagles game....for the THIRD TIME....4th and 26...the defense fails to stop Philly...they convert...momentum shifts...and yes Favre threw the pick. Fine I grant you that, but they probably get stuffed anyway, and have to kick and Philly runs it down their throat anyway.

    Where as your boy Rodgers...has the ball in OT against the Cards last year
    *i.e. Pack has momentum* Rodgers drops back to pass, and fumble fingers McGee drops the ball...causing momentum to switch 1 or 2 seconds before the WINNING TOUCHDOWN is scored on the same play!

    As far as pinking me...Mods...go ahead and do it...BUT...if Rodgers fails to win the superbowl THIS YEAR (His 6th year in the league) I get re-instated back to my normal colors and I get an apology from ALL of my detractors, and all members of the AR fan club who have bashed me thus far. I think this is far as Brett won his superbowl in his 6th year. If you guys can agree to these terms pink me...if not stop threatening it.

    Also my recommendation would be to stop throwing stats at someone who has a stat for any stat you can throw at him.

    Favre would've been sacked 10 less times maybe 15 and here are 2 reasons.

    1. Rodgers can't count to 4...just watch he hangs onto the ball past 4 bananna/mississippi/whatever.

    2. I can almost guarantee you that o-line would've blocked for Favre. At times, and I'm not JUST saying the o-line I see guys that used to kill themselves for Favre not giving Aaron the same. To me he doesn't have the confidence and respect of his players. And it's guys you wouldn't expect.

    This is just speculation you dreamed up to try and make your point valid. You would just like to think this is true because that's the way you feel. You can't guarantee anything.

    #1 St Louis 6 ints....Minnesota playoff game 4 int..AND per your own criteria that you use Rodgers to blame in Arizona, you have to say Giants playoff loss..So by my count thats 3...Not one

    #2 Unless he has a career ending injury your full of ****...This is what makes you a troll and we are not having it..how in the hell can you claim to be a Packer fan but admit to being a troll?

    #3 "they probably get stuffed anyways" stop the SPECULATION....Brett had the ball and tossed an int..Just like Rodgers did...That is you being two faced...You blame Rodgers for choking, but with same situation Brett does it, you pass it off as it isnt an issue...

    #4 See last statement of #3

    And taking your pink off...You are not pink now are you?

    Brett started for 6 years, Rodgers hasnt..Why is that so hard to understand?

    Once Rodgers has 6 years starting which is 2013 then lets revisit this SB thing

    Here are the flaws of your two reasons:

    1. Even if Rodgers can't count to 4 he should've thrown the ball away. Of course you may think that Favre would do the same but instead he'd throw a risky pass somewhere that could get INT'd. Just as its likely that he could get a completion, Favre has as much risk to cause a turnover as Rodgers does at taking the sack.

    2. You can guarantee that O-line would have blocked for Favre huh? Because of the confidence and that everyone loves the guy right? So this affection for Favre would've kept Clifton healthy and Mark Tauscher would magically rehab from his knee a lot sooner perhaps, am I getting that correctly? Puh-lease... Our O-line has a lot respect for Rodgers and vice versa, please read: Rodgers won't rip offensive line | National Football Post. Rodgers even advocated the resignings of both Tauscher and Clifton during the beginning of FA.

    Favre doesn't own the most important stat = multiple championships. Starr is the greatest QB in Packer history with 5 NFL championships. Favre is a stats hound. BTW, the greatest player who ever played in GB was Don Hutson. Favre was great in the regular season but stunk it up big time in the playoffs. If it wasn't for Desmond Howard and Reggie - who I think should've won that MVP! - Favre would still be ringless. He has a history of tanking in big games. I'll never forget his performance in 2001 against the Rams! :-p Nobody is saying Rodgers stacks up to Favre but we are saying he has all the tools to be just as successful. If he takes after #4 and repeatedly screws up in the playoffs then the Packers have a problem. You deny it but I think you hate AR cuz he replaced your hero. How sad for you to have this much hatred for a guy who just plays football. Seeing you are such a big Favre fan, what in the h3ll are you doing on a Packer forum? We all cheered ourself hoarse for him when he played for GB but he now plays for a hated rival. I find it curious that you don't find that repugant in any way so you can't be a realpackerbacker no matter how much you protest. You, sir, are a fan of a player, NOT the team.

    One man does not a team make. Brett was not the only reason the Packers won a Super Bowl and if AR wins one it won't be solely due to him either.

    Here are some QBs who have won Super Bowls:
    Trent Dilfer
    Brad Johnson
    Earl Morrall

    Here are some QBs who have never won a Super Bowl:
    Dan Marino
    Jim Kelly
    Fran Tarkenton

    Which group would you rather?

    My point is comparing Rodgers and Favre based on whether AR wins a Super Bowl in the next 3 years is silly. But, it sure would be nice and very possible.

    I am excited about the next 5 years for the Packers. They have a great young QB and a deep, young team around him. Whether they are fortunate on the injury front and get a break here and there remains to be seen. But I like their chances.

    noone forced brett to retire, This whole situation has just brought out a side of brett that we never got too see before. He doesnt Care about Green Bay, Legacy, his Super Bowl win here or any players he played with at GB or anyof that. Brett Favre Cares about Brett Favre and thats IT period. Brett Favre is a DIVA, he's not friends with his teammates, he wants private locker-rooms, he wants to skip training camp. What were the packers supposed to do, trade a-rod? tell a-rod yeah your gonna sit in your contract year, cause theres a chance this old man wants to play again. Not too mention if brett would have stayed in GB he would have had a horrible season like he did in NY, he has been declining since 98' and everyone knows it. His vikings numbers doesnt mean he would have done that here in GB. Vikings fans are about to see the real side of brett this year, watch him throw 10 ints the first 5 games see how fast the vikings are to get rid of him.

    Agree, but it doesnt take a team to lose a game, just one guy.

    What's his won loss record through 30 starts...YOU suck it!

    Oh...and since one of you wise-*** mods have pinked me...you took the wager for the rest of the group...WHEN Rodgers fails...the rest have to pay up and admit Rodgers is a choke artist...at which point I will be re-instated back to normal colors.

    I also expect and demand to NOT be labelled a Packer hater...BUT I can do without that for now...as long as that's part of the deal. When Rodgers fails to win the Superbowl THIS YEAR *year 6 of his career, same year Favre won his superbowl* I am to be re-instated back to the level of fan dom I WAS at and the rest of you AR fan club members and TT Asskissers are to be turned pink AND put to the level of Packer Hater. Whichever mod pulled this ruined it for the whole class...thank him or her whomever it may be!

    know what??

    Its OUR rules if we wanna pink you up we will :) We dont need to take on a bet ( even if your bet is flawed cuz you wanted 6th YEAR others wanted 6th year STARTING=2013) but it doesnt matter...We wanted you pink--so you are until your ways change..

    And technically...majority of the mods agreed not just "one"...in fact you were nominated to be pink back in April, but few of us stuck up for you until this weekend....

    If you dont like it, well you know the drill

    So let me make it clear.....THERE IS NO BET WITH YOU...You were deemed a Packer hater by your posts, so be a MAN and wear your pink label with pride
