you can say top 10 QB but better than Manning/Brady/Vick/Brees/Big Ben?

Brady would die in Green Bay, while Rodgers would more than excel in NE.

Well IF Vick didn't have legs & IF Brees didn't have a left arm & IF Big Ben got convicted for rape, he'd be the second best QB in the league, in my opinion.
But on a serious note, I think Rodgers could be the 3rd best. Mobile QBs like Vick don't win Superbowls, so I'd rather have Rodgers over him & I think he's certainly better then Ben & I'd say it's a close coin flip between him & Drew, but Rodgers has more up in his future.
Don't sleep on Phillip Rivers though.
EDIT: Oh & Matt Ryan.

while I'll admit he's sucked ass in certain Philadelphia related games this year (and a few other games), Eli Manning has something that Rodgers/Rivers/Ryan may never have so you can't leave him out of the discussion either. it's a shame the Giants most likel will miss the playoffs (unless GB loses and NYG win)
i hate the Bears, i hope they win next week though
.:DaYg0sTyLz:.:
1-Patriots
2-Falcons
3-Saints
4-Eagles
5-Steelers
6-Ravens
7-Bears
8-Jets
9-Packers
10-Colts
The NFC is completely up for grabs. I think any of those teams cant beat any of the others. I think the Packers will beat the Bears next week and get in. It likely could set up a rematch the following week in the wildcard game. For some reason I still cant take the Bears seriously though.
The AFC, I pretty much feel like its the Pats and everyone else right. Pittsburgh or Baltimore could MAYBE go in there and beat them...but its gonne be tough. I dont see the Colts doing it this year, and I think the Jets might get bounced out in the wildcard game.

Brady would sit down with his coaches, like they all do, & tell them what plays he comfortable running with. If we're going to play fantasy island over here, we don't have to make it beyond unrealistic. They would run those plays in practice & maybe two pre-season games & realize it doesn't work & scrap it.
Let's be honest for once, you use to say "He won rings because he had the best defense, a good run game & the best line"; that was nearly 10 years ago. Now he has an average defense, statistically they are below average, most certainly worse than the ring years, he a solid, but nothing special run game & his offensive line is aging, still pretty damn good, but isn't as good as it was 7-8 years ago. & yet somehow he's putting up BETTER numbers with less help. That physically makes no sense.
I get it, you're mad he gets the shine & doesn't have to do as much as Peyton Manning. But if we're going to play fantasy world where the QB has to play the system of the coaches, Bill is running the same offense & if he had Peyton, he would make him run the same plays & you'd be here shitting on Peyton.
Can I admit Tom Brady wouldn't have as great the numbers if he was somewhere else? Of course. But do I think he'd be jobless within three weeks? No, he'd still play well. But at the end of the day he isn't anywhere else & he'll continue to put up the great numbers & numbers is what defines sports in this World.

The Packers don't have the personnel or the coaches to run the Patriots system. he o-line isn't as good. There is no Wes Welker to squeeze in short in the middle plays, or a Ron Gronkowsky type to block for screens and runs. Brady doesn't have say on what plays are called or what the offense should be like. McCarthty has his own system it needs a gunslinger to work right. Why would McCarthy change his whole style and trade for completely different players to accommodate Brady? You could argue that wit the current Packers D the NE style offense would be ideal for a Superbowl team, but you'd need Wies or McDaniels to set it up. But then why spend money on Brady when Kyle Orton can give you the same numbers? Orton and McDaniels playing wit that Packers D would be ridiculous.
My point is that QBs for the Erhardt-Perkins style offense are a dime a dozen. Finding guys to set it up is the tricky part. Aaron Rodgers is a special talent. Tom Brady is not.
