I've posted it elsewhere but I think Brady's defenses in the playoffs gave up 30+ points a total of 7 times over his entire career? Rodgers' defenses have averaged giving up over 30 over his career. So no, I don't have to give a QB credit for consistently having an elite defense. I give that credit to the coach and defensive players.
Okay, I personally say make claims post info at least so for anyone reading here is some figures from Brady and Rodgers games in playoffs:
