Ranking the Seahawks opposing quarterbacks from yecch to yass

You knew he would be the one

1. Aaron Rodgers. As if there could be any doubt. There isn’t much new to write about Aaron Charles Rodgers, is there? Let’s see… was his worst season 2008, his first year as the starter? He “only” threw for 4,000 yards, 28 touchdowns and 13 picks. Or was it his 2015 campaign, when whispers started that he was starting to show his age? Rodger threw for just 3,800 yards, 31 scores and 8 interceptions. Yes, those are his “bad” years.

Rodgers has had eight seasons of passer ratings over 100, including his ridiculous 2011 campaign that earned a passer rating of 122.5. I’ve played seasons of Madden on easy mode and didn’t get that kind of rating. When you throw 45 touchdowns against just 6 picks you’re going to look pretty good.

Next: Is Pete the best coach in the division?

Here’s how good the Packers quarterback is. Passer rating isn’t perfect, but it’s a pretty darn good measuring stick. Rodgers career rating is 103.8, the best career number ever. Russell Wilson is number 2, at 98.8. The gap between Rodgers and Wilson is the same as the gap between Wilson and Kirk Cousins (and Kurt Warner). Warner was electric for a few years, but people forget that after his All Pro year in 2001 he was really pedestrian for six years. Aaron Rodgers is Kurt Warner at his best, but for ten straight years, not three. Rodgers is simply the best.
