[QUOTE="Cal2GreenBay, post: 106560, member: 682"] I'm sold on Rodgers because he had the same precision and fearlessness I saw from Montana/Brady in the bay area. The way Aaron went into southern cal and beat USC once and then almost beat them twice sold me. he made 23 straight completions against their top ranked linebackers and threw the ball right at the shoulder of his receivers where the defender couldnt' get it. That's uncanny. I feel that accuracy will translate into the NFL. If he gets time to bond w/Jennings and the other receivers we'll see that kind of accuracy. Well about his downfield throwing, he can throw it 50plus yards w/ease and his ball doesn't flutter like Alex Smith does past 40. Aaron's not as strong armed as Favre, but it's accurate and has zip on it. Yes he'll be more Bart Starr-ish than Favre is. I hope when he does get famous in GB that he keeps sporting that Tom Selleck moustache..that was hilarious. Regarding Tedford. Jon Gruden and Tedford spoke at length about his offensive strategies and the pro translation of the same offense. McCarthy and Tedford spoke about it too (they spoke about this because they wanted to know how much was Tedford's teaching and how involved Aaron was involved in the plays..to see how much Aaron was really doing and wasn't having it done for him from Tedford) Tedford hired a new offensive coordinator named Mike Dunbar who ran a spread offense at Northwestern that put up big number. He's combining his offense w/the spread to create a hybrid attack that has caused problems for a ton of Sat teams(w/the exception of Tennessee) This hybrid attack is being used w/the Atlanta Falcons w/Michael Vick(alhough he's too dumb to run it right). Dunbar's offense mixed w/the west coast offense is a new age offensive attack that Tedford is mixing up. His main nemesis in college was NOrm CHow and the USC offense. To see if Tedford's offense will work..we'll have to see how Chow's and Tennessee's pans out. Also Chow and Tedford's offense has protection packcages to withstand the elaborate defenses in the NFL. Guys like Steve Spurrier did not have that in his offense. That's why the pro defenses were laughing at Spurrier's offense when it came into the NFL Tedford isn't that pompous as Spurrier and is more cerebral. I feel Tedford is the nextgen Bill Walsh and Aaron Rodgers was the prize pupil who could make it translate on the field. That's why I think they would succeed. Hmmm..Cal's great RB Marshawn Lynch is coming to the NFL in two years... If he got drafted by GB and Mike McCarthy doesn't pan out then.. who knows.... [/QUOTE]
