[QUOTE="neilfii, post: 355040, member: 3821"] There can be no arguing that Favre was a great quarterback. I think the future will prove that Rodgers is a great quarterback. I believe, however, that the Packers will be far more successful under Aaron Rodgers than they were under Brett Favre because I see a huge difference between the two. The difference does not lie, however, in their skills, their abilities, their talent, their knowledge, or even in their preparation (though I believe Aaron to be far more dedicated to preparation – physical and mental). The huge difference I see between the two is that Favre got his teammates to believe in him while A-Rod gets his teammates to believe in themselves. Favre had his teammates convinced that he could rally them and win the game with his heroics. A-Rod has his teammates, whoever they are – starters or substitutes – believing that THEY can win the game. A-Rod, in that sense, reminds me of Michael Jordan. MJ was not only a great player, but he made everyone around him, BJ, Scotty, Kurr, Kukoc, all them, better players. It is a confidence not in one person, but in the team; not in one man’s ability to win, but in the team’s ability to win. That mindset, that trait, is what allowed a team with over 25% injuries from opening day to the post-season win the Superbowl and it is what I think will keep these Packers in the dynasty mode for quite some time to come.
