Aaron Rodgers Makes It Easy To Forget About You-Know-Who

Posted: 8th January 2010 by Aren Dow in NFL
Aaron Rodgers starts his first playoff game and, really, his legacyáSunday against the Cardinals. The postseason is where careers are cemented; Peyton Manning was seen as merely a good quarterback because he fell apart in big games before finally winning the Super Bowl. Dan Marino is quickly fading because of his lack of success. Which is why I would love to have Rodgers win his first playoff game. It would start ...

When Ron Wolf held the 213th pick in 1999 Draft, he might have known he was getting a special player. Wolf probably did not expect that player, however, to break records held by the 90-year-old franchise. Once the ball softly rests in Donald Driver's hands for the first time Sunday, he will break the record for the most receptions in Packer history.áThe reception, which will be number 596, will move him ...
