Manning and Brady are the best HANDSDOWN!!! Just because Aaron Rodgers wins a title doesn’t make him great by any means. Trent differ won a title for god sakes. If you don’t give it to Brady and Manning who gets it…..( pause to ponder).Yeah rodgers is good, but he’s got time to leave his mark on the NFL . Well see who the real great is in Indianapolis. Go Colts !

Yeah Rodgers should have been #1. Like someone said, we’re not talking about career achievements, we’re talking about right now. Rodgers is clearly the best player in the league at the moment.

Although I could stomach Brady above him, the numbers he put up were absurd (36tds and 4ints? how is that possible?), even if he couldn’t get it done in the playoffs.

Prisco’s yearly list is a indecipherable mix of career accomplishments versus current day ability. I don’t think it is a stretch to say that A-Rodge is the best QB in the game right now, but Brady and Manning are still 1 and 2 due to career accomplishments.

Prisco has a habit of overrating speed and young players. He also has a crush for Andre Johnson, who I would argue drops too many balls to be considered the best WR in football.

The only Packer I see slighted is Greg Jennings, who proved in the Super Bowl he is a big time player and way better than #80 in the NFL, ranked behind guys like Hakeem Nicks. No, really.
Greg Jennings is a Top 5 WR in this league, right now, and he is easily a Top 50 overall player.

WTF, who cares, as SB champs the team as a whole is rated number 1, until someone knocks them off it doesn’t really what some dumbass reporters opinions are!

It’s ridiculous that Rodgers is not the top rated QB. This is a list of the 2011 players which means that past seasons shouldn’t count towards this poll. Therefore, Manning, as great as he is, and Brady, as overrated as he is, should have been at least the third and fourth QB’s. Although, Jay Cutler went further than Manning, but he shouldn’t even be on the list.

Yup. Thanks guys. I changed that to say NFC divisional champs rather than NFC North.

I’m as big of a Packers fan as they come, but I noticed you wrote in your 3rd point that it will be easy to repeat as division champs this year. Even though we won the superbowl, we did not win the NFC North last season. I hate the Bears too, but we can’t claim credit for things we did not accomplish! Go Packers!

RE: The last statement of the article.”.3. That it should be relatively easy to cream their asses, provided there is a 2011 season, and repeat as division champs.”

How can the Packers repeat as divison champions when the Bears won the division last year? ?

Bears won the divison.. the Packers won the war!
