When our town burned down 4 years ago, we are about 12 miles from Chico up the hill.. Aaron helped rebuild the town and our schools, our Gyms, and Football Stadiums for the kids.. I am a lifelong Lions Fan, but I will always tip my cap to Rodgers, and Thank Him for helping us.
I never got the chance to play QB because I was already 6'4 by the time I was 13 and they wanted me to try tight end or defensive end. Funny how the height thing works both ways
Not a chance. Great deep ball but I would take the accuracy of Troy Aikman, Dan Moreno, Tom Brady, ect.. None of those guys would lie about having a COVID shot to their team either.
Arguably nothing. He has not thrown for 300 yd. In his last 22 regular season games. Go back and check 2022. No 300 yd games and the first 5 games of 2024. So He's on a streak of no 300 yd gamesin 22 games and counting Brady had a 400 yd game and 5 300 yd games in his last season, as max Kellerman said he fell off the cliff.
he only used a little bit of welfare funds to help out his needy daughter with a new volleyball building...chill out people on welfare have enough already
You never know 😂 he could be stacking up illegally uptained funds into an offshore bank account right now and we won't know until after he's in the HOF for a mediocre career!!
Vikings fan here. Prime AR12 (circa 2009-2017) was the most unbelievable QB ive ever seen play the game. He was must watch TV and was always a concern until the very last second of the game. He was a damn magician at the damndist times. I still cannot believe the 2015 Richard Rodgers throw. If my money was on the line, I would take my chances with the 2014 Packers to beat any given team in the history of football. Aaron has been far more entertaining to watch over the years than the likes of Brady or Manning. Those two drop back and make the same three or four throws all game, not entertaining at all. I wish Aaron the best and have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the real AR12 on Pat McAfee's show the last few years.
As a 49ers fan, I always wondered how successful they would have been with Rodgers instead of Smith. Eventually the Niners collected plenty of talent, but while Smith was definitely talented, he probably suffered from poor coaching. Someone like Rodgers would have been a strong leader who would have basically coached the offense himself.
I grew up in Kansas and at the time there were a bunch of small community colleges with amazing teams. In Dodge City Community College there were over 10 football players already attached to Universities. The fact was that they didn't have good enough grades to go to a university.

Aaron Rodgers is one the best Quarterbacks I’ve ever watched, I got more respect for the man when he’s on the Pat Mcafee Show every Tuesday. It makes me sick that the media tries to paint Rodgers in a negative light, god bless Aaron Rodgers, man deserve all his success and more!
It's the one super bowl and his brutal honesty that get him painted that way especially after the whole covid thing (which was ridiculous because his medical choices are none of the media's business). Honestly I think super bowl wins are more of a team stat than an individual one. I'm more concerned about regular season play. playoff time is more indicative of the coaching staff and front office than the Quarterback. if you win a lot and play well you're a great quarterback.
@@theechoproject899 I hope he can win 1 more Super Bowl, seeing the media try to make us hate Aaron Rodgers isn’t working. It’s like the media tries to paint Rodgers as the super villain, thank god for the Pat Mcafee Show because I prefer to watch their content over ESPN, first take, and Undisputed; and they are the only ones who understand Aaron Rodgers.
@@theechoproject899 I know the whole COVID vaccine thing was stupid, Kyrie Irving didn’t get the jab and he also got destroyed for it just like Aaron Rodgers. I can see why players like Kevin Durant don’t like the media also, they can twist your words to try and make a story.

The vaxx clowns and talking heads cant be taken serious. Unluckily fanboys are dumb enough to take them srious... Thus I hope Ar turnes things around and saves the season. Just for the sake of kickin axx @ MSM... Same is true for the 2nd all time in Y/PP and 6th in passer rating: JG.

Cool thing, is before the camp fire (I left Cali when the fire hit), Chico had a sign that would say, “Welcome to Chico home of Aaron Rodgers”. Don’t know if that’s common knowledge or not. But, I always thought that was cool.
Ive lived in Chico for 10 years (I’m 23 now) and as long I’ve lived here the sign has never been up. It used to be many many moons ago but it’s no longer up as far as I know. The school district has turned away his booster money for the sports programs because he only wants to donate it to his alma mater and not all the high schools in town. Good quarterback but personally not someone I’d be friends with. I dated his cousin who’s 17 years younger than he is but she’s said that he refuses to talk to his parents and siblings. They send Christmas presents every year to his home and he sends them back year after year. He can wear Butte College gear at press conferences all he wants but he’s not my QB
Yeah I was in Chico for about 10 years or so myself I only recently moved and they took down the Aaron Rodgers sign awhile ago. When he disowned his family the city took it down.
@@skyoutlaw Rings are probably the worst thing to measure a player's skill by. He has always had a bad defense, not great wide receivers, yet still has had a top 5 season for any qb ever. He has been a top 3 qb for the past 10 years except when he gets injured, and many of those seasons he was the best when his competition was high. I personally don't think he is the greatest but definitely top 15 and i would say top 10.

@@skyoutlaw Rodgers is a hall of fame lock and will be in the hall of fame announced by the nfl. If you are in the hall of fame you are one of the greatest.

He is top 5 all time and this is widely known and recognized. "no one cares about mvps or stats" simply one of the most absent brained people I've ever seen comment on youtube.
@@skyoutlaw Rodgers is a really good QB. However, I wouldn’t call him the greatest WB of all time. He still will be a legend, but not on the same level as Brady, Manning, and Montana.
@@skyoutlaw Yeah it seems that he will retire with one ring. One ring isn’t bad at all though. There has been good QB that has never won a ring before.
GB has had its share of talented players on the offensive side of the ball…wide receivers, running backs, tight ends, the O-Line and so on. It is hard to win without all of the right parts but I say it’s almost impossible w/o a good QB. Packers would not have the legacy or championships without Farve and Rogers. He is one of the all time greats for the QB position and I love his story. This was a well done piece.
I guess no one heard of Dilfer and Williams. Mediocre qbs statistically speaking. Each has won as many Super Bowls as Roger's. I'm sure the other Ravens qb wasn't a qod at qb and yet won a super bowl. ROGERS HAD EVERYTHING YEAR AFTERyear yet even 13 to 15 win seasons when it was a 16 game season. Could only stomach 1 super bowl. All those MVPs for failing time after time. Yet Brady the least talented of all of these won more super bowls than all of them added together. And appeared in more than all of these added together. So I never understood praising. Such a failure.
There are 1000’s of Aaron Rodgers who never got the chance because of too small of school and favoritism in small towns. Seen it with my own eyes, kids start because of who their parents are and some coaches rather not get on their bad side than to win.
Not sure there are 1000’s of Rodgers. I hope you are referring to guys towards the middle or bottom of the roster. I’m sure there are thousands of Brady’s out there as well
You are exactly right as it happened to my kids they were swimming since 6 years old and they entered high School swimming and since they were okay at all strokes but outstanding in breast and freestyle the coach would put them on backstroke something they couldn't excel at while his own son who is mediocre in the breast and freestyle got to swim those at every competition! Needless to say they dropped out of swimming and concentrated on their studies instead and are shooting for valedictorian! The problem is many colleges want them to have 4 years of sports also. This country doesn't have priorities when it comes to our students getting ahead.
It's usually the coaches son who play quarterback in small towns. coach Bob Jonson coached both Brett and Rob Johnson at Quarterback In Apr 29, 1994 - Bret Johnson, a former El Toro High School and UCLA quarterback, has been released by the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL. Robert Garland Johnson (born March 18, 1973) is a former professional American football quarterback and current assistant football coach at Mission Viejo High School. Johnson, a native of Orange County, California, played college football at the University of Southern California (USC) and was a fourth-round pick in the 1995 NFL Draft by the expansion team Jacksonville Jaguars.
@joeyg1463: U missed my point, not all kids are even given the chance to compete in those odds. Say Aaron Rodgers was at a high school that the coaches son was QB or the coach was bestfriends with the family of the kid trying out for QB. Trust me I seen this happen in small towns where kids played main positions like QB and had no right starting. Where I’m from there’s been a lot players go to the NFL from my school and the towns next to it...Jordan Whitehead, Ty law, tony dorsett, Mike dicka, D. Foster, D. Revis, Joe Namath, and many more.
Any mention of that 2014 NFCCG against Seattle still raises my blood pressure on command. I've never felt more disappointed with sports in my whole life lol.
The thing I love about Rodgers is that he likes to prove people wrong, I hope ppl doubt his skill level one more time for him to show them who is the owner of the Chicago Bears.
Only thing he has proven is he is God awful in the playoffs and doesn't seem to practice enough in the off-season. But what do I know im just a football fan.
Aaron Rodgers deserves every success. Cal deserves the blame for allowing athletic directors to sour the relationship, so much so that Rodgers often names the junior college in his capsule bio on NFL broadcasts. What a scathing rebuke against an alma mater.
Rodgers is a B E A S T!! He has dissected defenses better than any other QB that has ever done it. Throwing bullets into tight 🪟 windows!! He is also very vocal while doing it. Rodgers accuracy and big play ability is his calling card. Many have been in the wrong side of his 4th quarter heroics. Rodgers is a threat till the last second of every game. Putting the ball into his hands st the end of a game is a recipe for a comeback!
Hands down the best and most talented QB of all time. Obviously us Packers fans wish we had multiple SBs with him by now, but regardless he is such a phenomenal and legendary QB. Hope he keeps playing after this year! 💚💛
@@bradthompson5383 Lmao Rodgers was making the throws Mahomes makes when Mahomes was in middle school 😂 And Rodgers has the most 70+ yard TDs in NFL history, and is definitely the best pure passer in history. Russ’ deep ball is good but not as good as Rodgers. I shouldn’t even have to say this lol, the career film speaks for itself.
@@bradthompson5383 Lmaooo so you’re trying to tell me Rodgers is not a good QB? Lmfao he’s objectively top 10 all time 😂 And has a very strong case for being the most physically gifted and talented thrower of all time. Stfu clown
Thank you for getting your history right. They beat the REDSKINS for that playoff victory. I hate when people rewrite history by saying that they beat the commanders. Commanders didn’t exist. That being said we should not have gotten that dub this year against GB. No Cobb, limited Lazard contributed to that win. God Bless this man for bringing years of moxie and thrilling play to this league. Hats off AR…
I am from South Africa and I just watched the Green Bay vs Tennessee game and I almost wrote Rodgers off after that highlights special and then this post appeared on my feed lol
Man I remember that 2010 superbowl . I was just 8 years old and that was my first football and superbowl game I ever watched. Our small TV in the living room with my momma . Time flys :(
I just watched him this weekend against Minnesota with him you always have a chance. I've watched him live at the game and on the practice field and he's one of a kind great,,kinda like Tiger Woods. Rodgers is the 🐅 🪵s of football...
Two of the most talented arms to ever throw the ball, no doubt. Favre was a legend but couldn't help himself when it came to risky passes though. It's almost like the management in Green Bay thought to themselves "hmm, what would Favre look like if he didn't throw interceptions?" and then found that kid at Cal Tech and signed him. Rodger's talent is undeniable but his decision making puts him in another league. We've been lucky, that's for sure.
A few tidbits to add... Butte was not the only school he reached out to. He reached out to at least one more JC who said no, they had a good qb. Butte was absolutely dominant even prior to Rodgers, infact that team also had a NFL TE and multiple future D1 players. It was obvious from (even before) game one that Rodgers was really good. His reputation in the area proceeded him. The NorCal JC system (at least at that time) was really good, and was home to a ton of future D1 and nfl players.
I helped my friend who was a sportswriter for the Paradise Post during Rodger's senior year. After covering the Paradise game, we went down to P.V. to catch the end of the game against Grant (Sacramento). I watched from the sidelines as Aaron threw the ball all over the field. When my friend later told me he ended up at Butte, I was in total disbelief.
This is why AR12 plays with such a chip on his shoulder. He’s had the hardest path of any QB to the NFL. In spite of his post-season shortcomings, he will retire as a top 5 QB off all time, along with having set some records that will take a lot of beating.
Talk about a late bloomer...5'7" as a freshman...That was me too, i was the 2nd fastest guy on the freshman team at 5'7" 130 lbs.. and got playing time at CB and HB, but that's where it ended, everyone else kept growing and I just kept getting injured due to my small farme. lol. I got up to 165 lbs when I was in the Marines but i stayed 5'7". Now here I am 65 years old and I still weigh my boot camp graduation weight of 148 lbs. but i am still 5'7"...probably closer to 5'6" now. i never got the growth spurt.
Thank you for this video. It's fax! Despite the playoff shit shows, there is no denying that Aaron Rodgers is a top 5 greatest QB of all time! He is in my top 3 of all time, but I certainly respect your take on it!
Another player that came from that Community College region was Jason Sehorn. Sehorn went to Shasta Community College, which is only about 40 miles from Butte, and I think they are in the same league.
even as a vikings fan you cant deny his greatness. its bittersweet to witness greatness detroying your team for 10+ years 🥲 the front office never gave him any help after his first superbowl. no defense, no weapons. first ballot hof for sure
Am a long time Cal fan...Am a tightwad hill veteran and off and on season ticket holder....Best Cal team ive ever seen was Rodgers Jr. yr there....The fact that Beast Mode Marshawn Lynch was in the backfield made Cal a damn good team then....
@@DMDvideo10 local man doesn't realize that Rodgers had the highest post season QBR for *years* before he was passed by Mahomes last year. Lead in practically every post season stat that matters- still does in a lot of cases. Fun fact, the average PPG allowed by the Packers defense before last year (idk what it is now) was 35- Brady's only ever scored >35 points in 7 post season games, 5 of which were game 1 blowouts where the other team basically fell into the post season accidentally. If Brady had to play with GB's defense he'd have 1 ring too🤷🏼♂
@@coopers1716 Fun fact: Rodgers fans love blaming his defense for his failures. He's been to plenty of NFC games and his defense wasn't the problem. His fear of failure is. He doesn't have the killer instinct int he playoffs. As far as Brady goes sure he some great defenses but name one title besides 2020 where his defense shut down the opposing team and Brady won easily... You can't in all of those Pats SB games Brady had to step up and score for to win them. He's led the Pats to 96 4th quarter points in Super Bowls. Rodgers is and will always be a fraud... "Discount double-check"...
Another Nor Cal athlete that got overlooked is a guy named Ricky Ray. Went to Shasta high-school tried to get into the NFL, managed to get on the practice squad with the 49ers. Eventually pursued a career up in the Canadian football league where he won several championships as quarterback. Begs the question how many guys the major colleges & NFL have missed. 🤔
@@RUclipsuser1aa yeah thats pretty much what I'm saying. The NFL has a horrible track record of holding on to some players far to long & ignoring others, especially at QB. Matt Leinhardt, Mark Sanchez, Joe Flacco, Jim McMahon all got more looks than say Doug Flutie, Jeff Garcia, Warren Moon (who all had runs in the CFL). The NFL is notorious for overlooking talent based solely on frivolous measurables like the 40 yard dash, high jump, etc. I think there have been more greats missed & not coached up than have been put on the field. Heck look at Kurt Warner (with the exception of his Giants run) he was stocking shelves before he had dumb luck, right place right time open the door for him to showcase what he could do.
The cool part of the story was when Cal coach visited the JC to scout a receiver, he used a pay phone on drive back to the Bay to offer him a scholarship. Before cell phones.
First time I've watched anything Aaron Rodgers. He was a bit stiff at times with the coin toss and is no doubt a great player. When I compare to Brady, it just confirms how awesome Brady is. Aaron Rodgers is a champion, but this video just made my estimation and admiration of Brady even higher . I'm an Australian living in the middle of the desert so your game travels far and is watched in even the remotest of places.
@@Random-zy7pl cause he passed his way to 7 Superbowls.Brady was clutch when it mattered. Rodgers went missing when it did, in playoffs. I know who I'm picking first in the schoolyard lunchtime game.
It's almost as though a QB sitting a few years to learn the system, develop, and avoid being immediately thrown to the wolves can be beneficial in not obliterating their confidence.
Rodgers will be remembered as only having one SB win and thus could never be considered with the great QB's. Off the field, he is an odd fellow and doesn't even have a relationship with his own family, very strange dude indeed.
Its funny how Aaron rodgers grew 5 inches from junior year to college. I had the same exact height as a freshman and as a junior I was 5'6 yet I didn't grow after my senior year which was my final height stopping at 5'7.
@11:20 you just grazed right over him demolishing Washington Redskins, now known as the Washington Commanders, like it was just some regular season walk in the park but coming from someone who was present at the game and is a life long Washington fan, that game was so much more for the home team that day. It was a crazy run for Washington and the season that Kirk Cousin solidified his worth in the league as a regular season starter, note I didn’t just say starter, where he dropped the legendary line “YOU LIKE THAT?!” as he was on a hot streak going into that playoff game. Of course we all know now Cousins is one of the greatest regular season stat kings but my god idk that I’ve seen a human with less of a clutch gene or the ability to win it when the spot lights are on and all the marbles are at stake. Got murdered by a Rodgers that day.

Needless to say they dropped out of swimming and concentrated on their studies instead and are shooting for valedictorian! The problem is many colleges want them to have 4 years of sports also. This country doesn't have priorities when it comes to our students getting ahead.
It's usually the coaches son who play quarterback in small towns. coach Bob Jonson coached both Brett and Rob Johnson at Quarterback In Apr 29, 1994 - Bret Johnson, a former El Toro High School and UCLA quarterback, has been released by the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL. Robert Garland Johnson (born March 18, 1973) is a former professional American football quarterback and current assistant football coach at Mission Viejo High School. Johnson, a native of Orange County, California, played college football at the University of Southern California (USC) and was a fourth-round pick in the 1995 NFL Draft by the expansion team Jacksonville Jaguars.
mm no theres only one aaron rogers...had the same odds as many other kids...he stood out for a reason
@joeyg1463: U missed my point, not all kids are even given the chance to compete in those odds. Say Aaron Rodgers was at a high school that the coaches son was QB or the coach was bestfriends with the family of the kid trying out for QB. Trust me I seen this happen in small towns where kids played main positions like QB and had no right starting. Where I’m from there’s been a lot players go to the NFL from my school and the towns next to it...Jordan Whitehead, Ty law, tony dorsett, Mike dicka, D. Foster, D. Revis, Joe Namath, and many more.
Any mention of that 2014 NFCCG against Seattle still raises my blood pressure on command. I've never felt more disappointed with sports in my whole life lol.
2:12 he won a starting job a veteran that’s been there several years.😅. That’s a two year school.
The thing I love about Rodgers is that he likes to prove people wrong, I hope ppl doubt his skill level one more time for him to show them who is the owner of the Chicago Bears.
Exactly
That’s what I like about him also, I hope I can meet that guy one day!
He’s trash rn
Only thing he has proven is he is God awful in the playoffs and doesn't seem to practice enough in the off-season. But what do I know im just a football fan.
Cali Juco rep baby
13:38 This just had his season ended but but it's funny shot of him being carried like that through the Vikings cheerleaders!
I’m a huge fan (a forever fan) of Aaron Rodgers! A fan all the way from 🇵🇭 I hope he will have a healthy and injury free for the rest of his career!
Top 5 QB’s of all time without a doubt
You chose a bad day to post this 😆 🤣
After losing to Taylor heinicke
💀💀💀
Yeah Green Bay sucks now 😕
Really wasn’t his fault refs prob got paid 2 million bucks
@@YoXotic literally all of the calls the refs made were right on both sides. There wasn’t one penalty I thought could’ve been wrong
Aaron Rodgers deserves every success. Cal deserves the blame for allowing athletic directors to sour the relationship, so much so that Rodgers often names the junior college in his capsule bio on NFL broadcasts. What a scathing rebuke against an alma mater.
Aarron rodgers is probably top 5 in greatest quarterbacks to ever live or play the game
Rodgers is a B E A S T!!
He has dissected defenses better than any other QB that has ever done it. Throwing bullets into tight 🪟 windows!! He is also very vocal while doing it. Rodgers accuracy and big play ability is his calling card. Many have been in the wrong side of his 4th quarter heroics. Rodgers is a threat till the last second of every game. Putting the ball into his hands st the end of a game is a recipe for a comeback!
Hands down the best and most talented QB of all time. Obviously us Packers fans wish we had multiple SBs with him by now, but regardless he is such a phenomenal and legendary QB. Hope he keeps playing after this year! 💚💛
Can’t blame Rodgers tbh
@@bradthompson5383 Nope, none of them can make all the throws Rodgers has made
@@bradthompson5383 Lmao Rodgers was making the throws Mahomes makes when Mahomes was in middle school 😂 And Rodgers has the most 70+ yard TDs in NFL history, and is definitely the best pure passer in history. Russ’ deep ball is good but not as good as Rodgers. I shouldn’t even have to say this lol, the career film speaks for itself.
@@bradthompson5383 Lmaooo so you’re trying to tell me Rodgers is not a good QB? Lmfao he’s objectively top 10 all time 😂 And has a very strong case for being the most physically gifted and talented thrower of all time. Stfu clown
@@bradthompson5383 Ok bud, you’re entitled to your opinion
Rogers is based in life and one of the top 5 QB's ever.. Hated him as a Bears fan though
Thank you for getting your history right. They beat the REDSKINS for that playoff victory. I hate when people rewrite history by saying that they beat the commanders. Commanders didn’t exist. That being said we should not have gotten that dub this year against GB. No Cobb, limited Lazard contributed to that win. God Bless this man for bringing years of moxie and thrilling play to this league. Hats off AR…
I am from South Africa and I just watched the Green Bay vs Tennessee game and I almost wrote Rodgers off after that highlights special and then this post appeared on my feed lol
How the hell did the 49ers pass on Aaron Rodgers for Alex Smith? Shakes my head.
I love nonstop sports
Man I remember that 2010 superbowl . I was just 8 years old and that was my first football and superbowl game I ever watched. Our small TV in the living room with my momma . Time flys :(
I just watched him this weekend against Minnesota with him you always have a chance. I've watched him live at the game and on the practice field and he's one of a kind great,,kinda like Tiger Woods. Rodgers is the
🐅 🪵s of football...
Packers' fans got two of the best arms to ever play back-to-back. It's been like 30 years of greatness or something.
And only two Superbowl Wins. Yikes.
@@spooge33 Great point. Two is better than none though.
Two of the most talented arms to ever throw the ball, no doubt. Favre was a legend but couldn't help himself when it came to risky passes though. It's almost like the management in Green Bay thought to themselves "hmm, what would Favre look like if he didn't throw interceptions?" and then found that kid at Cal Tech and signed him. Rodger's talent is undeniable but his decision making puts him in another league. We've been lucky, that's for sure.
@@mitchellknight gunslinger
Jordan loves looking pretty damn good too.
Boy I wish I could have kept growing after high school
Ironic Brett Favre got mad the packers drafted a QB considering Aaron rodger’s recent history
Favre is not in the same conversation as Rodgers.
I was at the Cal vs.USC game and of all the great players on the field that day, he was something special.
In a way I think the 4 years on bench cost him another Superbowl and mvps
@@bradthompson5383 how is that relevant
@@bradthompson5383 Actually, his personal life is pretty phenomenal. The guy works in depth to realize himself in deeper ways.
@@bradthompson5383 Please explain yourself
3:13 you can see marshawn lynch in the background during his freshman year playing with rodgers
Rodgers is one of the QB's I am entertained by the most, especially when he throws a bomb into the end zone and it is receiveved for the TD.
Watching this video makes you wonder how many potential sports legends have been passed up and never given a chance at all.
rogers really created the dab/ 0:22
he got real lucky going from 5,7 - 6,2
I'm from chico and he's a legend lol
Aaron Rodgers is the greatest NFL Player to ever come out of Pleasant Valley High School!
He sure is playing like a community college QB this year.
After we just lost to the Commanders, Jets and Giants this year
Yall need adams back😂😂 how y’all lose to a backup qb
@@dolo6474 packers need a new team in general
I'd like to "R-E-L-A-X" like other years but this season seems to be pretty damn bad
It's been rough this year.
@@Babs42 As a Washington fan ive been relaxing my whole life even when we beat Green Bay I didnt feel anything
A few tidbits to add...
Butte was not the only school he reached out to. He reached out to at least one more JC who said no, they had a good qb.
Butte was absolutely dominant even prior to Rodgers, infact that team also had a NFL TE and multiple future D1 players.
It was obvious from (even before) game one that Rodgers was really good. His reputation in the area proceeded him.
The NorCal JC system (at least at that time) was really good, and was home to a ton of future D1 and nfl players.
I helped my friend who was a sportswriter for the Paradise Post during Rodger's senior year. After covering the Paradise game, we went down to P.V. to catch the end of the game against Grant (Sacramento). I watched from the sidelines as Aaron threw the ball all over the field. When my friend later told me he ended up at Butte, I was in total disbelief.
This is why AR12 plays with such a chip on his shoulder. He’s had the hardest path of any QB to the NFL.
In spite of his post-season shortcomings, he will retire as a top 5 QB off all time, along with having set some records that will take a lot of beating.
Doug flutie and Kurt warner had a way harder time.
Imagine AR12 being your defense attorney beating the charge and then doing the discount double check 😂😂😂
Talk about a late bloomer...5'7" as a freshman...That was me too, i was the 2nd fastest guy on the freshman team at 5'7" 130 lbs.. and got playing time at CB and HB, but that's where it ended, everyone else kept growing and I just kept getting injured due to my small farme. lol. I got up to 165 lbs when I was in the Marines but i stayed 5'7". Now here I am 65 years old and I still weigh my boot camp graduation weight of 148 lbs. but i am still 5'7"...probably closer to 5'6" now. i never got the growth spurt.
Dont worry bud! In the next life !
It said Aaron was 5’3” as a Freshman n
You got to be a part of a pretty good team- USMC.
0:22 no cap Arron Rodgers created the dab keep slaying king lol.
Thank you for this video. It's fax! Despite the playoff shit shows, there is no denying that Aaron Rodgers is a top 5 greatest QB of all time! He is in my top 3 of all time, but I certainly respect your take on it!
Another player that came from that Community College region was Jason Sehorn. Sehorn went to Shasta Community College, which is only about 40 miles from Butte, and I think they are in the same league.
even as a vikings fan you cant deny his greatness. its bittersweet to witness greatness detroying your team for 10+ years 🥲 the front office never gave him any help after his first superbowl. no defense, no weapons. first ballot hof for sure
Aaron Rodgers " LEGEND " 🔥🔥🔥
Am a long time Cal fan...Am a tightwad hill veteran and off and on season ticket holder....Best Cal team ive ever seen was Rodgers Jr. yr there....The fact that Beast Mode Marshawn Lynch was in the backfield made Cal a damn good team then....
NFL playoffs pre josh Allen overtime rules really costed A-Aron at least one more ring and definitely a trip there.
I'd say Aaron and his coach cost him more trips... He crumbles in those big moments...
@@DMDvideo10 local man doesn't realize that Rodgers had the highest post season QBR for *years* before he was passed by Mahomes last year. Lead in practically every post season stat that matters- still does in a lot of cases.
Fun fact, the average PPG allowed by the Packers defense before last year (idk what it is now) was 35- Brady's only ever scored >35 points in 7 post season games, 5 of which were game 1 blowouts where the other team basically fell into the post season accidentally. If Brady had to play with GB's defense he'd have 1 ring too🤷🏼♂
@@coopers1716 Fun fact: Rodgers fans love blaming his defense for his failures. He's been to plenty of NFC games and his defense wasn't the problem. His fear of failure is. He doesn't have the killer instinct int he playoffs.
As far as Brady goes sure he some great defenses but name one title besides 2020 where his defense shut down the opposing team and Brady won easily... You can't in all of those Pats SB games Brady had to step up and score for to win them. He's led the Pats to 96 4th quarter points in Super Bowls.
Rodgers is and will always be a fraud... "Discount double-check"...
Rodgers and his coaches cost him rings... Not the rules.
@@DMDvideo10 too long; didn't read. time wasted🙃
Rodgers will come back next season and make history again.
To me he has to be in the Top 3 QB's of all time, or maybe the best of all time based on pure talent throwing the football
My math teacher went to college with him and Marshawn Lynch
Another Nor Cal athlete that got overlooked is a guy named Ricky Ray. Went to Shasta high-school tried to get into the NFL, managed to get on the practice squad with the 49ers. Eventually pursued a career up in the Canadian football league where he won several championships as quarterback. Begs the question how many guys the major colleges & NFL have missed. 🤔
Doesn’t sound very good
@@RUclipsuser1aa Facts & stats matter more than "how it sounds"
@@The-Jokes-on-You I mean, he doesn’t sounds very good. He was on a practice squad.
Are you saying the NFL doesn’t look for top players in Canada?
@@RUclipsuser1aa yeah thats pretty much what I'm saying. The NFL has a horrible track record of holding on to some players far to long & ignoring others, especially at QB. Matt Leinhardt, Mark Sanchez, Joe Flacco, Jim McMahon all got more looks than say Doug Flutie, Jeff Garcia, Warren Moon (who all had runs in the CFL). The NFL is notorious for overlooking talent based solely on frivolous measurables like the 40 yard dash, high jump, etc. I think there have been more greats missed & not coached up than have been put on the field. Heck look at Kurt Warner (with the exception of his Giants run) he was stocking shelves before he had dumb luck, right place right time open the door for him to showcase what he could do.
The cool part of the story was when Cal coach visited the JC to scout a receiver, he used a pay phone on drive back to the Bay to offer him a scholarship.
Before cell phones.
Just realized how much young Aaron Rodgers looked like Ryan Howard from the Office
I went to Cal. When Rogers faced that big USC game, he completed his first 20 passes in a row.
A legend in his own mind. One SB 13 years means nothing. And stats without titles doesn’t make a legend. Fade away you prima donna.
Cowboy fan?
First time I've watched anything Aaron Rodgers. He was a bit stiff at times with the coin toss and is no doubt a great player. When I compare to Brady, it just confirms how awesome Brady is. Aaron Rodgers is a champion, but this video just made my estimation and admiration of Brady even higher . I'm an Australian living in the middle of the desert so your game travels far and is watched in even the remotest of places.
Brady is gay
❤
Rodgers is a better passer than brady. How does this make you admire Brady more?
@@Random-zy7pl cause he passed his way to 7 Superbowls.Brady was clutch when it mattered. Rodgers went missing when it did, in playoffs. I know who I'm picking first in the schoolyard lunchtime game.
Rodgers and Packers are one of my favorite combo/teams!
Top five QB of all time!
I'm a PACKERS fan siñçe 2000 Brett farve and Aaron Rodgers are nothing but pure greatness
Favorite player of all time
He went to a school in the juco league I used to play In because of him they have so much money
AR deserves at least 4 SB rings. But I am glad he has gotten at least one. Many great QBs have gotten zero rings!!!
He should have more but choked the past 10+ years
Good Man.
7:25 “The bears found a way to nullify Rodgers”

Can u do a video on former bengals A.J Green ?
I just realized it’s funny that this year another Wisconsin sports team (the bucks) also had the 24th pick of the draft this year
It's almost as though a QB sitting a few years to learn the system, develop, and avoid being immediately thrown to the wolves can be beneficial in not obliterating their confidence.
Jordan Love has entered the chat

If dude would’ve left Green Bay he could’ve had several Super Bowls
If Green Bay wasn’t so shit in the playoffs he and Brett would have probably each picked up 3-4

Green Bay is just Cheap tho they’ve always been
Call Aaron Rodgers is the beast and so is Brett favre
Just watching this the main take away is green bay has held him back tremendously
He’s became an NFL household meme. And Tom Brady
Rodgers will be remembered as only having one SB win and thus could never be considered with the great QB's. Off the field, he is an odd fellow and doesn't even have a relationship with his own family, very strange dude indeed.
Sounds like you just hate the guy.
His family are religious nutjobs
Packers defense stopped this man from playing in so many super bowls. Got a feeling he's going to love playing on the Jets this season.
Just a reminder that Dez caught it during that 2014 playoff game vs Dallas 😇
Wouldn’t have mattered MVP Rodgers needed a field goal to win with 4 mins and two timeouts
@@Spiral87 - Then choked the next week in Sea after being up the entire game lol

dudes an inspiration for real.
Its funny how Aaron rodgers grew 5 inches from junior year to college. I had the same exact height as a freshman and as a junior I was 5'6 yet I didn't grow after my senior year which was my final height stopping at 5'7.

@11:20 you just grazed right over him demolishing Washington Redskins, now known as the Washington Commanders, like it was just some regular season walk in the park but coming from someone who was present at the game and is a life long Washington fan, that game was so much more for the home team that day. It was a crazy run for Washington and the season that Kirk Cousin solidified his worth in the league as a regular season starter, note I didn’t just say starter, where he dropped the legendary line “YOU LIKE THAT?!” as he was on a hot streak going into that playoff game. Of course we all know now Cousins is one of the greatest regular season stat kings but my god idk that I’ve seen a human with less of a clutch gene or the ability to win it when the spot lights are on and all the marbles are at stake. Got murdered by a Rodgers that day.
And now Aaron’s doing same thing to Jordan love lol funny how the tables turn
