Quote from: QaZ on October 10, 2012, 05:00:34 PMouch, sounds like someone feels quite offended. While i don't think it's my responsibility, i still say sorry for, if this makes you feel better, lolOK, let's recap, you said rodger is better becauce he has a ring, unlike freeman. If this is not what you ment, this is what i read.What ever, i think the packers should be quite pleased with rodgers, with or without the ring. i'll take a QB 1 lucky play away from a ring. I do not try to make rodgers look bad, just putting things in perpective, nor do i try to say freeman would have won all those PO games aswell.I even mentioned we could have CHOKED at NO in week 17.But again, what would be your view on rodgers if K2 does not draw that flag. Did he choke on that 15-1 team? Vs the #31 D? Would he just be FF star then? Carried by the WR that got M Flynn 6 TDs?Putting things into perspectiv,reminding how things can go. While Rodgers still is the same great QB, better than Freeman. But the doubters would be there, epsecially after that 2-3 this year. But ask yourself why, because he did not get that favourable(BrEn) call? He's still the same QB, just without the chance to proof his greatness.If i would have want to be a 'little punctuation nazi', i would have pointed out how you americanized my quote. Even PRs spell checker does not ignore BrEn, i'm not apoligiSe for my education. When i say it was a coincidence you messed up my quote, i ment it. To proove the point, 1 single incident should not make the whole story. 1 ring does not make great QB, 1 missed FG does not make Flacco a scrub last season. For the record i'm not pleased with freeman if he beats out dilfer, and even this is a big 'if'.When we wanna analyze QB play, let's held them accountable for what they control, and not for a few .... coincidences. Freeman lead a come back drive vs the giants, because M Willams missed the ball and was lucky to see it bounce of the CBs helmet into his alligator hands. Did Freeman missplace that ball? Thats what freeman should be credited for, or blamed for, in case of not seeing a wide open VJax 2 drives earlier. If the giants kick a FG instead of scoring a TD right after, does Freeman become a better QB, because he would have had 1 less INT?Sanchez stinks in the regular season, some said they would have won with freeman(or tebow), actually sanchez played pretty well in the PO, one of the reason they made to the AFCCG twice, still he was lucky to get into the PO in 1st place.What about Eli? Did he and his team just got hot in the POs, twice now, or are the constant under achiever? Some just say Eli is elite, while Peyton get 10+ wins year in and year out, with only 1 ring. bur yeah, lets keep it simple. Marino is a scrub, even his records are gone no. Funny how Brady and Brees did not win it all that year either. And here we are again, Freeman had ZERO 300+ games in 2010, and i was quite pleased with him then.Rodgers is more accurate. Rodgers can read a defense. Rodgers can play well in consistent games. Rodgers knows when he can force a ball into tight coverage, and when not to. Rodgers has excellent pocket awareness/presence....am I seriously having to point out why Rodgers is better...smhI'm not offended it at all. I don't get offended when it's obvious that someone doesn't know WTF they are talking about. That arouses no emotion in me.Rodgers one lucky play away from not having a SB? Wow. Your perspective if awfully flawed. That #31 ranked D was total yards..which is hardly a good barometer for measuring success or failure. If they honestly had the 2nd worst defense in the league...they wouldn't have have on the SB. Once again, perspective flawed.Post is pretty hard to read after that point...and you kind veer off a bit.Have fun with your coincidences.

Since receivers have been taller than and able to outjump CBs and safeties? You new or something? Did you happen to catch Mike William's 2010 season before they started jamming him at the line?
Yeah, there was a whole list of 'em. I'm sure you've got them memorized.
Rodgers just had one of the best seasons for QB last year and consistently has good games/seasons. I have no clue why you're trying to devalue him.

Again, what would be your view on rodgers if the flag does not fly? How much does he seperate himslef from a guy like Stafford or Flacco?. I'm not hear to defend Freeman, just wanna point out how a few sexy wins make a QB look better. letting people ignore looking at the actually play. I'm far from calling for Rodgers head, the exact opposite is actually true.
Actually the problem isnt that Freeman stinks. He is average. He puts up good numbers just often enough to make you think he is better than he is. Bad and great are convincing. But mediocre makes you live with the delusion for too many years. He is just good enough to waste our time and not good enough to get us where we want to go.

I'm not hear to defend Freeman, just wanna point out how a few sexy wins make a QB look better. letting people ignore looking at the actually play. I'm far from calling for Rodgers head, the exact opposite is actually true.None of my posts have been strictly about yards. I never responded to the OP. Yards don't tell the whole story. I don't think Freeman blows because he doesn't throw for 300+ very often. I think he blows for a myriad of other reasons...now a direct result of him sucking would be a lack of good statistical performances...but that's not why he is a bad QB. Same thing with Rodgers. Rodgers has great QB attributes. The result of that was a SB title. He isn't great because of that title.My view of Rodgers is not skewed by a singular event that was one of 1000's of instances that occurred thoughout the 2010 season that led to games resulting the way they did. You are choosing to cherry pick one play and say luck was on Rodgers side. That's idiotic. One could argue that every QB(and team) that has ever won a SB has had a little bit of luck on their side. Sometimes the ball bounces your way, and sometimes it doesn't.That's something that you density is preventing you from seeing.

I have no clue why you're trying to devalue him.Devalue? Just reminding you of how he would be critized for just being a FF star , a choker, if he would not have been so lucky in 2010, beside playing a good season and PO then. I'm not taking this away from him. But all this, without luck would have been pointless. The same guys glorifying Rodgers now would compare him to romo then. Talk about how Flynn might bring similar results, without choking a 15-1 season.You act like i would pick freeman over rodgers, as if i think a ring less rodgers would been like freeman. I'm not here to defend freeman.

Rodgers missed a game that year and flynn loss wouldn't we be considered lucky if we made the playoffs? People thinking Flynn can produce like rodgers?lol
Before the ring, Rodgers was the best third down QB in the NFL. Now if you can't understand that, there's no point in trying to explain anything to you.
