Flynn had 2 good games in GB.

Leaves, gets beat out every where he goes.

Returns to GB.

Now, if he succeeds in Rodgers's absence, then maybe there is something to the system. That's all I'm saying.

Brady gets criticized for the year of Cassel, Rodgers should get the same treatment.

But, Rodgers doesn't just do well in GB, he excels. In fact, he excels so well, that he's coming off the greatest 2 season stretch for a QB in NFL history. His career numbers are:

186 TDs
50 INTs
66% COMP
105 RAT

The way he protects the ball, and the throws he makes, alone make it obvious that he's not a system QB. Couple that with his numbers, I don't see how anyone can think he's a "system" QB.

the odd thing is, it's not like he's played poorly. He's just too old to be a prospect and he has no real upside. But look at his numbers this year in two games and one start:

22/34, 64.7%, 246 yds, 7.24 Y/A, 83.7 RAT

Not elite, but not bad. Look at his rate stats. If he had enough attempts to qualify, he'd rank 6th in completion percentage, 16th in Y/A, and 18th in passer rating. He's essentially a mediocre starter in a market in which everyone is looking for either a high end starter or a project.
