After Goff and Cousins, he is easily the 3rd best in that division. No doubt.
I wonder who Vikings fans would rather have - Cousins after all these years or Fields?

I agree both those two are top-half of the league types

hard to say with Fields - guy didn't have a whole lot of help last year

In all seriousness....

At least with Fields you still have hope he has more of a ceiling. Cousins effing blows..his 5 yard pass with it being 4 and your entire season and you need 8 yards to end last season is all ya need to know bout him. Goff is intriguing...he was good last year and did make a SB. If I could choose between the Goff and Fields, I ain't choosing the Vegan. I want my QB's eating any and everything with faces and feet. Thick slabs. Rare.

I completely agree (though it might be hard to level this with your QB eating charred well done steak slathered in ketchup like a 6 year old)

Goff seems like a good leader, too. really have never heard anything bad about the guy.

I have been a Cousins defender for his entire career, but I think we've seen his ceiling.

As a lifelong Packer fan, I thought he was one of the greatest players ever- maybe the best. But his skills are eroding and he costs too much money. I wish him well but Jordan Love looked good when I saw him, and this frees up $50 million to spend on much needed roster improvement.

I can't wait until Rodgers takes the Favre route and goes to the Vikings after the 2024 season.

Just completely deflate the Packers nation.

I think he's done in GB

he's either going to be a Jet or retire.

wouldn't be at all surprised if he walked away from the $59M he's got due to him.
Yeah, I agree and he is just kind of his own guy, he is fine doing things how he wants and I don't think he cares about anything/anyone but himself, I don't mean that in a bad way either.

He's a different type. A California hippy. But he's a smart guy and a competitor. I also liked how he stood up to the NFL and the lame *** Nazi covid ********.

Someone should tell NFL GMs that in between George Blanda and Tom Brady, there was a half-century of 40-something QBs who couldn’t play dead in a Western.

Most talked-up, hyped guy in the league. It is hard to watch the games due to the announcers and post and pre game gush over him. It's like he's got dirt on every one of them, and if they.say one thing that isn't glowing, he's going to go public with the info. It is really strange.

Yeah, but that was before they decided to not allow anyone to touch certain QB's.

Officially (so far) a near identical career to Brett Favre. Both played in and won 1 Super Bowl.

Pro bowls: Favre - 11, Rodgers - 10.
MVPs: Favre - 3, Rodgers - 4
Favre: 4x passing TD leader
Rodgers: 2x passing TD leader
Favre: 3x first team all pro
Rodgers: 4x first team all pro

Somehow, both go to the Jets after a long and wildly similar Packers career. Amazing.

Both started 15 seasons with GB
Both are 2 of just 5 players to win MVP twice in a row
Both listed at 6’2” 225lbs (Wikipedia)
Both barely recruited out of high school
Keep in mind Jordan Love was the same draft pick as Rodgers (24) with again, zero P5 offers out of high school.

Just more coincidence in your NFL

There might be coincidences but Favre and Rodgers weren't close to the same. Dual-threat from Mississippi with a rocket arm but poor decision making. Kid who spent all his time playing football in the bay area and was in contention for the #1 pick. Favre liked his painkillers and whiskey, Rodgers likes his psyadelics.
