“Tom Brady Has More Retirements Than Aaron Rodgers Has Rings”: A-Rod Gets Bullied on Twitter for Having One Lombardi in 18 Seasons

Aaron Rodgers is one of the most recognizable names in the world right now. All thanks to his 18 seasons with the Green Bay Packers. Many consider him one of the best QBs in the league today if not one of the greatest in the history of the sport. However, there are quite a few who feel Rodgers doesn’t deserve to be placed on the same level as many do Tom Brady, who is by far the greatest ever to play in the NFL.

Aaron Rodgers played for 18 years in Green Bay, where he managed to win just a single Super Bowl. Now, he comes to New York with a fresh perspective, and a newfound hunger to win. Not just that, this is perhaps the first time in a while that Rodgers has a team capable of mounting a threat to its rivals.

Fans are not happy seeing Tom Brady -Aaron Rodgers comparisons

Comparing players is not an unusual thing in the NFL community. Players like Patrick Mahomes and Jalen Hurts have been constantly compared to retired legends, such as Tom Brady and the Manning brothers. However, it seems not everyone is happy about Rodgers being compared to Brady. It seems Rodgers is not great enough to be compared with the GOAT, in some people’s eyes.

It is true that Rodgers does not have as many Super Bowl wins as Brady. However, what makes him one of the best for many, is his performance. Many would argue that while Brady had the privilege of playing with a great offense and defense, Rodgers almost never had that going for him. Perhaps that is what has endeared him to so many people, his staying at Green Bay for so long.

Tom Brady is no longer playing football. This means his already unachievable stats are no longer going to rise like a hot air balloon out of control. However, Rodgers will not be hoping to match those records himself. Especially the one with 7 Super Bowl wins. With the end of his career in sight, Rodgers will be glad to finish the next few seasons with one or two Super Bowl rings.

Brady, on the other hand, is living his life to the fullest. Without the pressures of preparing for gameday, he is now having fun with friends and family. With his business ventures taking flight, and his new role as Fox Sports’ lead analyst, Brady seems to be leading a perfectly balanced life. Only time will tell if he will be as good a commentator as he was a QB.
