You need to incorporate ypa and sacks into the equation.

Brady has also benefitted greatly from the division he plays in as well. Quick name the second best AFC East starting quarterback since 2001 who didn’t play for the Patriots.

Rodgers is currently suffering from the same fate as Peyton when he was in Indy. He’s consistently carrying an average roster to the playoffs and his front office takes it for granted and doesn’t make the necessary moves around him.


Like firing their HC?


Several years too late. McCarthy was stale and lived off that one SB.

Rodgers is the best. No one comes close.

The MSB used to jerk off when he would throw 4 2-yd TD passes in one half against the Lions. I'm glad my friends on here have evolved.

Swiss cheese defense, an average at best O line, and a couple of freak injuries.

The same could be said for the NFC North. The best QB Rodgers has had in his division would be Brett Favre for all of one season. Cutler routinely gave easy wins to the Packers and Stafford has dealt with a worse front office than Rodgers.

The nfc north has had the bears make a super bowl, the lions make the playoffs, and the Vikings make the nfc championship game since Rodgers has been a QB

The afc east has had a team win a special olympics bronze medal once while Brady has been qb

Bears made the super bowl before Rodgers was a starter and the Vikings made the NFC Championship game with a backup QB when Rodgers was injured.

I believe the Jets made a couple runs in the postseason during Brady’s time.

Cool. That doesn’t change the fact that other teams in the conf have been good and competitive.

2008: bears and vikes ahead of pack
2009: vikes
10: bears
11: lions 10-6, bears 8-8
12: bears and vikes 10-6
13: bears 8-8
14: lions 11-5
15: 11-5 vikes
16: lions 9-7, bears 8-8

Feel free to list the same for pats.

2015 - NY Jets 10-6
2016 - Miami 10-6
2017 - Buffalo 9-7

I really had no idea that any of these teams were good during the last few years but thanks for making me look into it.

My question becomes what great dynasty has kept Rodgers out of the Super Bowl. Brady has had to deal with the Manning and Big Ben for most of his career along with the runs from the Ravens. You could argue that the “Legion of Boom” was his greatest adversary but only faced them once in the postseason. He was knocked out twice by Kaepernick, lost twice to aging QBs playing for Arizona, bested by derpy Manning and lost to an offensive juggernaut in the Atlanta Falcons. Somehow Rodgers has never faced Brees in the playoffs.

You just made our point. Thanks.

The patriots division has been far, far weaker.

So why hasn't it translated to more championships?

None of his teammates or coaches actually like him, maybe? The guy comes across as a total jerk.
