You can easily make a case for Aaron Rodgers being the best player in all of football. Rodgers has already won his first Super Bowl and Most Valuable Player award in his young career.

Rodgers is a precise pocket passer that also presents multiple threats, including rolling out of the pocket to pass and also the ability to run for first downs when receivers are covered down field. This presents a difficult challenge for defenses to defend, as the threat to run or pass is presented on every play by the quarterback.

There is a reason the Packers are Super Bowl contenders year in and year out and it’s because they have the best signal caller in football. Rodgers makes any team a contender and will one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL for years to come.
