Eli was garbage until the last 4 games of that season. Finished the year with 20 TDs, 23 INTs. 56% comp rate. Nice 25 INTs this season too.  Point is, Difer is not the only mediocre QB to win a SB. Brad Johnson won a QB too...and even Mark Rypien's SB-winning season was an exceptional season in his career. He never matched those amazing numbers again. It happens a little more often than people mention. Of course, there are always star QBs who win in bunches (Montana, Bradshaw, Brady) who fill up the list of SB-winning QBs, making it APPEAR that a star QB is a necessity to win it all. Most of those QBs also have dominant defenses on their sideline too, as do the Dilfers of the history books.

| Re: Super Bowl XLV This may have been hit somewhere else, but I just was thinking about it today and wanted to pass along: How close do you think Aaron Rodgers was to being a Redskin? The Packers selected him one spot ahead of where we took Jason Campbell, and I mean I'm sure there was a lot of debate for Green Bay as to weather to take him or not... I just thought it was kind of interesting. I know Campblel was Gibbs guy, but Rodgers was also projected to be long gone... just something I was thinking about..... Also looking through that draft board... was Rogers (Carlos) the best player taken in the top 10? Maybe Antrelle Rolle, but I think otherwise he actually might be. Thats a pretty weak top 10 for 2005

Mind you Gmanc those are not my words, but the writer does make some indisputable points.

| Re: Super Bowl XLV Like a seed in soil without much nutrients, Aaron Rodgers have not developed and produced as well as he did in Green Bay. Sure, he would have developed some, but not to his maximum capabilities.
