Trent Dilfer said Rodgers

[longtimefan]

This was one of the greatest, if not the greatest game a q/b played in the SB

 

[VersusTheMoose]

Big compliment, I don't have the stats in front of me but it isn't that far off.

 

[red4tribe]

It was very good, but I can think of a few that top it.

Montana against the Broncos in 1989.
Williams against those Broncos in 1987 I believe.
Steve Young against the Chargers in 1994
Troy Aikman against the Bills in 1992.

Just a few off the top of my head.

Though, perhaps, if you take away the drops it would have trumped all.

 

[VersusTheMoose]

The drops would have added a lot to his numbers, but the outcome is all that matters.

I agree....I dont think it was..

But if those werent drops...Yeah he could have had 400 and 4 tds

 

[Claymaker]

Probably top 10, but I think Trent is a little caught up in the moment. Those Super Bowls Kurt Warner played he was amazing...sad for him those 2 pick 6's he threw cost him arguably 3 championships.

This SB was good, but Steve Young in SB XXIX was unbelievable. Throwing 6 touchdown passes is hard enough to do in the regular season, and Young did that in the biggest game of the season. Doug Williams also gets my respect for throwing 5 TD passes in a quarter in SB XXII.

 

[Crazy Packers Fan]

Those were great games, but were they under so much pressure? Losing a long-time receiver in the first half, having little run game to back him up, in a close game? Sure, Steve Young's 6 TDs is unbelievable, and maybe Kurt Warner's XXXIV and Tom Brady's XXXVIII are better. Still, it has to be ranked highly up there.

 

[GBMuskies]

Wasn't Phil Simms 20 or 21 of 22 in a SB? Not flashy, but that was a hell of a game.

 

[red4tribe]

Yeah, I'd put Rodgers' performence in the top 10 for sure but certainly not the best ever.

 

[Reverend Conehead]

John Elway against the Falcons in 33 was a great performance. Joe Namath in SB 3 was a massive upset.

Funny you said Young...He said that besides 2 passes in Chicago, he saw one if not the best q/b performances in the playoffs

 

[Murgen]

For the playoffs Rodgers has been off the hook!! If you consider the SB a road game, doesn't that mean Rodgers has already passed Farve as far as wins on the road?

 

[bubbahotep]

If you go by the ranking of the defense he played against compared to the other great games by QB's, it's definitely top 5.
