I disagree with this statement. The Packers grossly overachieved last year in my opinion and he is stepping in with enormous amounts of pressure with basically the same team. Plus, he has a passer rating of 91.2 so far this year. You can hardly blame this team's struggles on him. In a few years would be the better time to evaluate him on whether or not he "is a bust." He is in the top half of quarterbacks in the league in my opinion in his first starting year.
I certainly don't think he's the second coming of favre (did I just say that? LOL). You can certainly do alot worse that Rogers if you ask me... Vince Young, Tavaris Jackson, Rex Grossman, Cullpepper, and on and on.
I'm not sure how many years he got on that big contract with GB, but its certainly going to get interesting if he doesn't play to expectation
hno:
funny people sh** on VY, yet he took a very crappy 0-3 Tenny team and almost led them to the playoffs. no one can say he inherited a great defense and great running game...the team was absolute crap and getting drilled.
next year, he leads Tenny to the playoffs.
he's winning the first game against jax this season when he goes down with injury and suddenly he's terrible.
yes, his throwin motion isnt good. but he's still a WINNER.
now the mental problems he has now I cant comment on. no idea what's going on there, but crapping on VY at every turn is wrong.
i agree with the poster who says you have to be "rated" to be overrated. This was the first year for him and he's doing OK but he still has a long way to go to becoming a good QB. still makes mistakes and bad throws

I don't think bust is the word but is he the answer for Green Bay to get back to the Super Bowl, don't think so. Rodgers has flashes of brilliance but I think he's only a slightly above average quarterback.
Right now the Packers are not playing good football and they had alot taken out of them last week in a game they should have won after coming back

This isn't the same team. Lost some key linemen during the offseason, injuries in the secondary cost the Packers a few early games, and losing Nick Barnett for the season hasn't helped either.
They aren't a great team...but I think it's ridiculous to call Rodgers a bust at this point in time.
How can you possibly rate a first year starter before his first year starting is even over? :think2:
Pack has major problems in the trenches...on both sides of the ball...Rodgers has done very well when you consider he doesn't have a line...or a defense.
Geezus...tough crowd.
