Of course he's not a fraud, he's still top 5, just not better than Brees. Rodgers get's more credit than Brees for a few reasons.
1. He plays for a "storied" franchise. (who gives a rats ass, Cowboy's QB's also get this benefit regularly)
2. He's taller.
3. He's had a bigger arm.
4. He's more fleet of foot.
5. His annoying national endorsements probably play a part.

That being said, as the video clearly shows statistically Drew crushes Aaron in just about any meaningful statistical category (especially accuracy, to me the most important one) and Drew brings to the table several thing Aaron is not good at : leadership, willing to sacrifice for his team, not a diva.

He did play hurt so not sure on the sacrifice part but he is no Brees. He had no WR's last year. Lots of times, right in the numbers and butter fingers.

He's still a good QB. I would take him over Ryan and Brady this year but career no. Brees hands down.

Officiating always have gifted GB and Rodgers, quite the theme last year in the final moments of many games.

I dont know Drew has a Hella lock on that. Saying something you don't believe to appease a group. Drew is at the top

I'd like to believe that if I were in Brees' shoes I'd refrain from wearing a name on my helmet that makes a martyr out of a criminal but he's in a tough situation. The entire team put that clown's name on their helmet so Brees followed suit to avoid another blow up. Inevitably, that chicken**** Jenkins would bring the issue to the media and the team would have to deal with that drama again... right before the season starts.

I don't think that it's a stretch to say that Brees is selling his soul in hopes of winning the Lombardi trophy in February and then becoming an announcer for a tv station next season. What a dumpster fire year for him.

I think it was several things. First I think his wife got scared that the people would be in front of their home and threaten them and their kids. Second I think he was worried about not being invited to work as an announcer/analyst, and lastly I believe he was worried the team wouldn't heal.

Either way I think he is a giant P and have 0 respect for him now. I have literally 0 interest in the NFL. I haven't even looked at any info. I honestly am hopeful the Saints lose often. Sorry to the fans I've known on the board for so long but I have no respect for any of them anymore. The players not the guys here.

I primarily refer to Drew as deep throat now for how he pleased MJ

The team discussed boycotting practice and as a team they came up with the idea of placing a name on every player's helmet as opposed to missing a vital practice. It was all or none. I respect the fact that they want to win for each other. If it pisses off some closed minded individuals then fine. Those individuals just need to grow a pair.

You're quick to label people "close-minded" for not thinking like you. That's called irony.

Regarding Brees, he's still my favorite football player. He's in a bad situation and has to make his decisions based on politics. I hate to see the guy that brought so much hope to a region have to placate the mob in order for some semblance of peace but here we are.

Still my favorite player, as well. Sometimes placating a crowd is the best and most honorable thing to do. Close minded people do not understand that. While I made my response to your post I wasn't necessarily addressing you. Understanding other viewpoints is also an honorable trait. It is also possible for individuals on either side of an issue to be equally right.

I'm just looking forward to the beginning of the season so you and I both can watch our favorite player hopefully lead us to another Lombardi. You take care, iceshack. Life isn't easy these days.

Thought we were talking about Rodgers here but things seem to have shifted a bit. Anyway Rodgers is a good QB and I agree with Beastmode I would take him over Ryan or Brady. The one thing I notice about Rodgers is that it's all about Rodgers, don't get that team leader feeling from him. When things start to go wrong for the Pack he looks like a spoiled child whining on the sidelines.
Despite all the craziness and uncertainties this off-season has seen I still see Brees as a better motivator and team leader. Looking ahead this will most likely be the strangest season we will see even more bizarre than the Strike Season back in 1987.

THe other option is Brees is a man of character, ambassador to this city and he wanted to show unity and be understood as someone who cares, was taken wrong and doesn’t have a racist bone in his body

What he said when he said it was insensitive

HOw little it takes to despise the person who nearly singlehandedly brought the Saints to a position of prominence and pride.

Truer words have never been spoken.

Okay. Maybe an over response, but you are dead on, Audiotom.

He's not better then Drew. He's a good QB.

Fraud? Neaux ...

Likeable guy? ... probably not but he is still a damn good NFL QB.

He was throwing darts against a good Vikings defense on yesterday.

Hopefully the Saints secondary is up to the challenge ... he'll be in the dome on 9/27/20.

Exagerated praise for Rogers is b cause the announcers (former players) hated Favre for beating them for so long. They jumped on Rogers bandwagon to stick to Brett. My personal view - the guy can play above average but is a real ass. Not in Drew or Manning’s class.
