I said in my post that Peyton's postseason shakiness is what drops him down the All-Time list...
Because otherwise, it isnt close between he and Rodgers. Let's not pretend Rodgers has this stellar postseason record himself----->he doesn't have the meltdowns Peyton had (almost no one does)...
Peak-for-peak, prime-for-prime, I'd take Peyton over almost anyone...
"Golden era of quarterbacking", here we go with this get off my lawn shyt lmao...
I love talking about any era of football. Don't be crazy, of course I know the game has changed because stylistically the game I'm watching in '19 isn't the same game I was watching in '99 in a number of ways. Sports evolve each era, don't even try to act like whatever era you think was the "golden era", there aren't people older than you who would say the era of Unitas, Starr, Tarkenton, etc was a better era because STYLISTICALLY it was a different game than the "golden era" you're trying to use to shyt on the last two decades...
Let's not pretend the last 20 years haven't produce some GOATs. We can talk about the "whys", but All-Time great players would translate to any era...
They aren't. The biggest advantage they have is time. We've been watching them longer so we have a larger reference point of their accomplishments, but when you actually recall their first 8 years or break then down either by results or statistically, it invalidates any claim that Rodgers or Brees were "vastly" anything compared to Russ...
