Brees vs Rodgers - Season and Last 5 Games

[BRHornet45]

oh look, updated stats

http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/stats/p...r?&_1:col_1=10

Rodgers 120.1
Brees 109.1

Brees 41.6 passing attempts a game
Rodgers 33.8 passing attempts a game

Hmm I wonder why Brees has more passing yards?

and like I said it is much closer. LOL at you pointing out that because Brees passes the ball more is why he has more yards ... no Sherlock. that would be like me saying "hmm I wonder why Rodgers only has 6 interceptions! its because he doesn't throw the ball as much!"

but its hilarious how you IGNORE the fact that Brees is much more accurate and it is even more impressive considering how much he does pass. oh and you brag about Rodgers only having 6 interceptions, yet ignore the fact that if he passed the ball as much as Brees does then he would have more interceptions as well.

[BRHornet45]

I actually like Brees. But to say he's better then Rodgers based on passing yards and completion percentages if flat out laughable.

You sir win for "Best Troll of the Day"

lol wow you are weak ... not even worth responding to anymore.

I never once said that Brees is better than Rodgers based on passing yards and completions alone. when did I ever say that? you putting words in my mouth is not helping your cause. I have said from the start that it is a toss up right now as to who the MVP SHOULD BE. the stats prove that Rodgers shouldn't be a shoe in for the award. 6 weeks ago? of course! ... but Brees has been the absolute best QB and player in the NFL in the second half of the season.

oh and thanks for the laughs with all of the going back and quickly editing your post when you realized you had the facts wrong. lol classic.

I didn't ignore anything. Brees is more accurate. But your main argument of Brees > Rodgers is because of passing yards.

Rodgers averages one INT every 80 throws. He has 110 less throws then Brees. Do the math.

Two games still to go. I expect Rodgers to have a better QB rating at the end of the season. You can throw yards, completion percentage, TDs...but all of that is factored into the QB rating. So Rodgers is higher for a reason.

NFL Records that Brees will (or already has) accomplish this year:

11 (and counting) games of 300+ yards in a single season

7 (and counting) games of 350+ yards in a single season

highest completetion percentage in a single season

passing yards in a single season


Aaron Rodgers NFL records this season:

?

oh, but he has 2 more wins and a few more td passes and a few less picks

All those records yet he only has 420 more yards then Rodgers despite passing 110 times more. Interesting.

Great article posted by the way

if the Saints win out and finish 13-3 then Drew Brees should be the MVP hands down, bar none. the amount of records that he has broken this season and other team accomplishments are unbelievable.

I would hope that the media and voters see it that way when they are deciding on a QB who breaks 4 NFL records in a single season or a QB who breaks none.

[BRHornet45]

wow I never realized just how many times Rodgers has been sacked this season and he has a damn good offensive line. He has been sacked 36 times! that's the most amount of sacks of any QB ranked inside the top 20! Alex Smith is the only QB ranked inside the top 20 QB's in the NFL who have been sacked more than Rodgers with 39 sacks.

Rodgers - 36 sacks
Brees - 23 sacks
Brady - 24 sacks

I think the Packers lost 2 starters on the O-line in todays game.. I think one broke his leg and is out for the season.

[BRHornet45]

which only means that even more sacks are to come.

well at least Rodgers may have a chance at beating one QB record this season. anyone know what the record is for a QB getting sacked the most in a single season? lol

[Darth_Pelican]

No but I am sure that Archie Manning is up there lol

[BRHornet45]

lol truth bomb

Both QBs have good lines.

Rodgers does have more rushing yards and rushing TDs...just thought I mention that since you brought up sacks. Sacks could be either because his pocket skills are inferior to Brees OR his line is inferior to Brees OR his receivers are inferior and lack better seperation skills then Brees receivers. Without analyzing every game tape there is no way you or I could determine that. So I'm not really sure what you were getting at with the sacks.

[BRHornet45]

I just googled "quarterback sacks records" and immediately Aaron Rodgers named popped up lol. some from this year, some from previous years ...

Packer Quarterback Aaron Rodgers Season Sack Record | Will He Beat Phil Simms?

"After eight games, Rodgers holds the most sacks of a single quarterback this season at 37. At this rate, he could reach up to 71 sacks for the season "

http://www.lambeaufieldticketsfan.co...rs-season.html


David Carr holds the record for most QB sacks in a single season with getting sacked 76 times in 2002. lol ...

[BRHornet45]

well Brees is also nearly 4 years older than Rodgers and isn't going to run the ball as much as he did years ago. same thing with Brady, Manning (well he never really did), etc.

Rodgers has 207 yards on 53 attempts with an average of 3.9 yards per carry

Brees has 68 yards on 17 attempts with a average of 4.1 yards per carry


son this is just like your passing argument. Brees has rushed the ball 36 less times than Rodgers, yet has a better yards per carry! if he had ran the ball just as much then he would have more yardage!!! lol ... come on, neither of them can run the ball.

[Darth_Pelican]

Yeah Brees doesn't run often, but when he does, it looks like this

[Pelicans78]

Rodgers has the edge right now, but it's not over.

[fevertrees]

sons did you not read my post either?

I said the important categories which is Touchdown-Interceptions. Nobody cares about total yards sons

Brees had more TDs and less interceptions than Manning in 2009 but apparently that didn't matter then. Rodgers will win simply because the media has declared it since the start of the season.

excellent point

like I said ... the MVP award very rarely ever goes to the most deserving player

[LnGrrrR]

I knew the record had to be David Carr. That guy absolutely got mauled. I remember the new Texans took that Olineman Tony... Boselli? Something like that. And he ended up not even playing.

[Ghazi]

Rodgers is on a better team, has a better passer rating, more TDs, less INts, and more yards/attempt. Brees only edges him in yards (this stat isn't really relevant, just means the Saints are a run and shoot BS passing team) and completion %.

Rodgers > Brees

Louisiana

[Pelicans78]

I rather Rodgers win the MVP. Doesn't matter to me. Manning won the regular season MVP in 2009, but Brees won the Super Bowl MVP that season.

Besides, the Saints should run the ball down their throats with all the RBs they have. All 4 of the Saints RBs would start on the Packers.

[BUMP]

lol at him having 2 more touchdowns meaning he is better according to you.

lol at you also ignoring the fact that he has less interceptions as well.

Boselli was from Jacksonville, I think his shoulders were already falling off at that point.

[TIMMYtoZO]

Both qbs are stat padders who need homefield or always needing a lead in the 4th. Rodgers failed when trailing in the 4th and brees is nothing special when he is not playing at the superdome. Eli can win anywhere and knows how to win when trailing in the 4th.
