And maybe 4 additional MVP awards and six more First-Team All-Pro nods.

Rodgers isn't on Young's level running the ball. People seem to have forgotten what a great runner he was, he looked like a skill position player in the open field in his younger days.

Rodgers is a scrambler, Young was a running quarterback who could throw.

still waiting on an explanation of how rings somehow makes him or anyone else a better QB

You rarely heard this before Dan Marino. How a team accomplishment reflects on individual talent, I'll never know.

So, if Joe Montana played on these modern Raider teams somehow his individual talent is dimished?

Doesn't need the ring, longevity would add to it though.

No one has played QB at a higher level over a 6 season span or whatever it is compared to Rodgers...almost to the point that it's not even up for debate.

ESPN won't hype him as much as they have with Manning as tGOAT. So Manning will probably be thought of as tGOAT because of that

People forget that he's already kinda old.

People act like he's some 27 year old young gun.

I guess because Manning and Brady are so old and are both still at such a high level it makes Rodgers seem like a kid.

Despite the total yards and TDs, I may have to actually give Rodgers the nod on this one. Very very close though.
