Rodgers and Favre

During the Green Bay - San Diego game today, I heard an interesting comparison between Aaron Rodgers and Brett Favre. Green Bay receiver Donald Driver, in his 13th season, has played with Favre and Rodgers. Driver appreciates how Rodgers does not put his receivers in situations that can get them hurt. Rodgers is extremely accurate and he rarely forces passes into dangerous areas. Favre, the ultimate gunslinger, was more apt to put receivers in a compromising situation by putting the ball in positions that required receivers to have to go and get it. Driver's career has been extended with Rodgers at quarterback.

As I have said before, I loved Brett Favre as the Packers' quarterback. But Aaron Rodgers is an amazing quarterback. At this point in the NFL season with Green Bay 8-0, Aaron Rodgers is running away with the MVP award.
