MRW Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 he holds onto the ball too long b/c he does well when he's rushed out of the pocket to create a play. downside of that is he gets sacked a ton, whereas peyton just throws it away. I also saw him, several times in the game yesterday, feel pressure when he still had time and run out into a sack. The contrast with Warner was evident - Warner rarely moved side to side, but would step up, avoid the pressure, and deliver a strike. Rodgers is dangerous when he gets on the move, but sometimes he's dangerous to himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not syaing he is the best QB in the league, im simply passing the idea that he may be and getting repsonses. It takes the mind of the Bills for awhile atleast. To raise a question are some QB's products of good systems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R. Rich Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Ben R. I've often thought - with no substantiation - that the word has long been out to not ever try to bust Manning into little pieces. Ben is such a clutch QB, it's unreal. I don't know if there's a QB in this league I'd take over Roethlisberger in a 2 minute drill type situation. Whether it's the Super Bowl or a regular season game, whether he has ample time to throw (haha!!) or has 2 or 3 guys hanging all over 'em, he still finds a way to keep plays alive and make clutch throws. In that respect (just that one, I'm not talking totality here), he's a lot like his childhood hero and the guy whose number he wears, John Elway.

Conch Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 If TE had a better line, better receivers, a quicker release, a stronger arm, better instincts, a more aggressive style, a nice touch on short and deep balls, a good running game, better game planning and if he wasn't afraid to throw downfield he could make this list. http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/style_emot...fault/flirt.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozymandius Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Green Bay has no line? Check out their sack numbers before and after their tackles returned from injury. That's when his season really started to take off. Rodgers is pretty good but definitely dependent on the line (like every other QB). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
