A very good article... Just showing facts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strat1080 Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 But you also have to factor in the weather conditions. This was the same argument from 2011 with Brees vs Rodgers. You can't just do a straight up comparison stats vs stats against a guy playing outdoors in the North in November and December vs a guy playing in domes. The only outdoor games Ryan played in during that span were in Los Angeles and Carolina. Rodgers also faced tougher defenses during that stretch. During that stretch Rodgers played two snow games at Lambeau Field and a game in Chicago with a -15 wind chill. It was so cold players decals were falling off their helmets. Its asinine to do a straight up comparison between the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything points to a Falcons victory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, Rodgers tends to be at his best when being trashed by the media. He's got that Tom Brady chip on his shoulder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different situation but the argument has nothing to stand on other than some correlation. It's why the game is played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
