Killing time waiting on the Last Dance tonight. Been watching a couple packer friends online have a debate about which QB they would rather have to start their NFL team.

So what say you CFMB? If you could have one of these guys to lead your NFL team which one would you pick and why?

It ain't a Young vs Fultz debate, but I guess it will have to do.

Favre did the most with very little help. He was an iron man in an era when it was perfectly okay to try to kill the quarterback.

Favre. Rodgers doesn't have the balls Favre had.

If we are judging totality of career then it’s Rodgers.

If it’s pre Jets, then it’s Favre.

Favre had the best statistical season of his career with the Vikings at 90 years old. He was a Peterson 10 fumble game and a Saints bounty from going to the Super Bowl.

I like and respect Favre more but Rodgers is better.

The ceiling would be higher with Rodgers. The floor would be higher with Favre.

By everyone’s recollection he would not teach Rodgers shit.

Jbi11s top QB arms of all time.

1. Mahomes
2. Rodgers
3. Marino
4. Favre

To be fair, Favre didn't even know how to read a defense. He just played.

If Favre didn't say a word to him, he still got to watch a top 5 quarterback prepare and play. That's teaching

How are you defining top arm here? Strength, accuracy, touch?

Yessir all of the above.

I gotta admit Rodgers and Marino are prolly interchangeable.

Mahomes has been great, and I am a huge fan of his, but there is no way that at this point in his career you can have him listed as 1 all time.

IMO the greatest arm of all time right now is Marino. He had it all.

Now in discussion of Favre and Rodgers. Favre wins strength. Rodgers wins accuracy. Touch I think is probably a toss up between the two with maybe a slight edge to Rodgers. But if I had to a QB to lead my team of these 2 guys it would be Favre all day. Favre's intangibles are better than Rodgers

Young Rodgers Arm strength to accuracy ratio was the best I’ve seen since Marino.

I think the SB win puts him above Marino.

Favre had one of the strongest arms ever, but his accuracy was very meh.

Idk, it’s all subjective.

Author:  Jbi11s [ Sun Apr 19, 2020 4:07 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: Favre vs. Rodgers

Also, I’m calling it early.

Mahomes has the best arm ever.

Idk if it’s even close.

Definitely subjective which is what makes it fun.

If we are just talking arms then superbowl wins really do not matter.

Rodgers channeled Peyton Manning's lethality when he had Matthews, Nelson, Cobb, etc at full strength.

Favre was great despite playing with "guys" after Sharpe broke his neck.

Who you’d want for their career is pretty close. If it’s who would you want at their best it’s Rodgers.

Post subject:  Re: Favre vs. Rodgers

Rodgers was in a clear path to beat Favre but Rodgers has only had two great seasons since he turned 30. It's pretty close now unless Rodgers turns it on or Favre unretires.

Post subject:  Re: Favre vs. Rodgers

Id also say that winning a Super Bowl and making it back to the Super Bowl the following year gives Favre the edge comparing careers.

Post subject:  Re: Favre vs. Rodgers

+1.

It's hard as hell to make it to the SB. That's why I consider those Buffalo teams of the 90s to be exceptionally good even though they struck out four times.

I'd take Rodgers, but only if there were no women left on the planet.
