Rodgers has had a solid year but I think that contract paying on the potential he can move into the elite class. With that contract now, he's overpaid but so is Romo.
He's thrown for fewer yards that guys like Campbell, Pennington, O'Sullivan and Orton but he has thrown for more yards than #4. He's 7th in the league in TD passes, 10th in completion percentage and 7th in QB rating. Statistically, he's in top 10 or 12 in most categories...that's not in the top tier of QBs but he's done well for himself in his first year as a starter.
One thing I'll say about the Packers this year is that I expected more from their ground game and in turn, would aid Rodgers but they are 23rd in terms of yards per game. Grant has had a major letdown of a season after last year's breakout season.

mdouche,
Are you a fan of every team who fields a kal player?
P.S. Titans 16 - Pack 16. Titans will win this one.

Bironas choke. Course, I'm in Thailand and watching via ESPN Gamecast so I'm not sure how he missed (block, bad snap, etc). Regardless, Titans get the flip. They win. Pack gets the flip...flip a coin.

Bingo. Bironas wins the game. Rogers loses another.
My Titans won't go undefeated, but they are in damn fine shape to make a run in the playoffs.
Rack the Titans.

I'm hoping the Titans stay unbeaten and the Lions stay winless until Thanksgiving...it would be too funny if the Leos screw up the double perfect seasons with a win on national TV. It might be the only way anyone would watch that game...an 0-11 team vs. an 11-0 team.

I'dbe willing to root for that scenario simply because the Titans would be 11-0. I'll support a close game but not a loss.
