Talk:Aaron Rodgers/Archive 2

Under professional career/starting seasons/2009, the following statement is incorrect:

"With his high-powered arm and multiple receiving weapons, Rodgers came only 25 yards shy of breaking Brett Favre's single-season passing yards record for a Green Bay quarterback."

Recommend changing to:

"With his high-powered arm and multiple receiving weapons, Rodgers surpassed Brett Favre's single-season passing yards record for a Green Bay quarterback by 21 yards, falling short of Lynn Dickey's all-time single-season record by only 24 yards."

See below from source. Favre does hold a record in this category

Most Yards Passing, Season 4,458, Lynn Dickey, 1983 (484 attempts) 4,434, Aaron Rodgers, 2009 (541 attempts) 4,413, Brett Favre, 1995 (570 attempts --NortyNort (talk) 04:26, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Ok, let's break the sentence down:

"Rodgers surpassed Brett Favre's single-season passing yards record for a Green Bay quarterback by 21 yards" - No he didn't. Brett Favre does not hold the record for single-season passing yards record for a Green Bay QB. Before Aaron Rodgers, he was in second place in that category. Thus stating that Brett Favre holds a record in this category is factually incorrect. I agree that he beat Brett Favre by 21 yards, but he didn't beat any record. It would be like saying Don Majkowski holds a record for single-season passing yards because he is in fourth place. It makes no sense.

"falling short of Lynn Dickey's all-time single-season record by only 24 yards." - The first part of the sentence says that Aaron broke the record for single-season passing yards, but the second part says that he fell short of the very same record! The sentence doesn't make sense.

I have changed the sentence accordingly. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 17:14, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

To be quite honest - who care's who Rodgers passed to be 2nd on the Packers list? It's notable however. I've changed the sentence as follows & also included a reference: "Aaron always wanted to play for the niners, since the lost to NY giants he now is very interested in a trade for Aaron and Grant for Smith and Gore. This trade might just happen"

"His passing yardage was good for second all-time in Packers history behind only Lynn Dickey's all-time single-season record." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Stylteralmaldo (talk • contribs) 17:05, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Aaron Rodger's first 4th quarter come from behind win was against the Lions in Detroit in 2008. http://www.pro-football-reference.com/play-index/comeback.cgi?player=RodgAa00 --Mendeleev (talk) 07:25, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

I changed the sentence to read that it was his first comeback win when his team was trailing entering the 4th quarter. The two Lions "comeback wins" from 2008 had one situation when the Packers were actually leading heading into the 4th quarter and the other had the teams tied entering the 4th quarter. Stylteralmaldo (talk) 18:32, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

As it exists now: "However, after Favre dropped out due to injury and Brees was replaced due to his participation in Super Bowl XLIV, Rodgers became the NFC's starting QB position."

"starting QB position" should be changed to either "starting QB" or "starter at the QB position". —Preceding unsigned comment added by Awirshba (talk • contribs) 03:54, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

A quarterback becomes eligible for most "career" ratings after 1500 attempts. Aaron Rodgers met this distinction during the present season. Since becoming eligible for this distinction Aaron Rodgers has traded the title, back and forth, with Philip Rivers. As of the end of week 16 Aaron Rodgers again has the title of Highest Career Quarterback Ranking. Since this is such a significant, and widely used, measure of an NFL quarterback's ability I feel it must be mentioned in this article. Rather than updating weekly I feel it is best to put in a section on his quarterback rating and that, since reaching 1500 attempts, has been a front-runner in this category. Thoughts? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.25.93.245 (talk) 02:55, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

QB rating, while not a be-all and end-all number by any means (and one that is obviously inflated by rule changes and the growth of the passing game over the last 20 years), is a valid and relevant statistic regaredless and one that QBs are often measured by, so yes it's significant that he is the current all-time leader. His standing may need to be updated somewhat frequently, however, depending on the performance of other current quarterbacks who are in constant contention for the #1 spot (primarily Philip Rivers, who is currently behind Rodgers by 1.2, which is a gap narrow enough to be eclipsed in a single season).

The more impressive number, however, is Interception % - most quarterbacks have their worst seasons in this category at the beginning of their careers, whereas Rodgers has become the career leader in that span. A league-leading int% by a player with only three years as a starter may actually be unprecedented, but I will ascertain proof for this before lobbying for that to be included here. If it IS unprecedented, then this may be the most important statistic of his young career, by far.

Suggest changing the following text to add "Golden Bears" instead of "Bears" (to avoid any confusion with the Chicago Bears).

Should be changed to:

"Despite these records, the USC Golden Bears were 1st and goal with 1:47 remaining and the Golden Bears did not score a game-winning touchdown in a game ending sequence that included three incomplete passes and a sack against USC.[6]

After Texas was picked over Cal for a Rose Bowl berth, the fourth-ranked Golden Bears earned a spot in the Holiday Bowl, but lost to Texas Tech, 45-31.[7] After the season, Rodgers decided to forgo his senior season (without a redshirt) to enter the 2005 NFL Draft. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.162.69.145 (talk) 02:45, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

The article incorrectly says that in 2002, while the quarterback for Butte College, Aaron Rodgers set a record for single season touchdown passes of 28. That is incorrect. Aaron Rodgers passed for 26 touchdowns - not 28. That can be verified by going to the Butte College Football web site, pasted below, corroborated by the Chico Enterprise Record, the local newspaper covering Butte College Football, also pasted. There has also been television coverage by television channels 12 and 24, local stations in Chico, CA.

The current record holder is Collin Ramirez, who to date has 27 touchdown passes in the season with one game remaining.

A link is provided to both stations' coverage of the record breaking.

Click photo to enlargeButte College quarterback Collin Ramirez (right), here throwing a pass during an Oct. 15 game as...«12»LOS ALTOS HILLS —

Not even Aaron Rodgers, perhaps the greatest Butte College quarterback in the program's history, can say he had a more prolific season than the one Collin Ramirez has had. And Ramirez almost certainly isn't done yet.

Ramirez threw for 225 yards and five touchdowns, reaching 27 for the season to break Rodgers' school record for touchdown passes in a single season, and the Roadrunners defeated Foothill College 37-7 Saturday to solidify their bid for a quality bowl game.

The Roadrunners await their postseason fate, which will be decided today.

Ramirez hit Jacob Corbaley and Nick Lonnegren for two touchdowns apiece, and also hit Shawn Conway Jr. for a 53-yard bomb in three quarters' worth of play, and Butte's defense came up with four interceptions and seven sacks in a regular-season finale to remember for the Roadrunners (9-1, 4-1 NorCal Conference).

"I'm really proud of Collin. A couple years ago, we thought he'd have a chance to compete for a starting job when we scouted him," Butte head coach Jeff Jordan said, "but to come in and break Aaron's record, that's a great feather in his cap. We've had a lot of really successful quarterbacks in this program and he's put his name up there with them."

Lonnegren's two touchdown catches were the ones that helped Ramirez tie and break Rodgers' nearly decade-long standard; the wideout first caught a post right over the middle for 53 yards with 2:38 in the second quarter, then later latched on to a tipped pass in the end zone on a 30-yard throw to make Ramirez the sole owner of the record. "It's cool, and it means a lot to me," Ramirez said. "Obviously that's a big name you're talking about. But I owe a lot of it to my team, and it's more important that we're 9-1. That's something to be proud of for everybody."

I'll review this article shortly. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 05:39, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

While I like Aaron Rodgers, there is a lot to fix for this article to approach GA status:

• The backup seasons section is virtually unreferenced.
• A lot of references are bare URLs, and need publishers, access dates, etc. added.
• There's a high number of deadlinks that need fixing: see here
• Youtube's not a reliable source usually; find a better source for the stuff that uses that.
• "including lowest interception rate at 1.43%" rate (1.43%).
• "during both the regular season (103.3), and in the post-season (112.6) – " and the postseason.
• "He set single-game records of 6 touchdowns" six touchdowns
• It feels like some more could be added to the college career. I'm not asking for a huge amount, but if there are a few other big games worth mentioning whether good or bad, then by all means include them. Especially 2004 should be expanded, as it only hits on the USC game.
• "After the season, Rodgers decided to forego his senior season (without a redshirt) to enter the 2005 NFL Draft." the redshirt part isn't needed, and I'd prefer a cite here, though I don't think anyone will dispute it.
• "Rodgers also holds the school career record for lowest percentage of passes intercepted at 1.95%." This contradicts the 1.43% noted twice; if it's meant to be career than clarify.
• "Despite these records, the Bears had 1st and goal with 1:47 remaining and could not score a winning touchdown. The game-ending sequence included three incomplete passes and a sack by USC." What do the records have to do with one drive? Either greatly reword or scrap entirely.
• "impressing many NFL scouts. Who commented that he was a" the sentence starting with who feels jarring. Is it meant to be combined with the previous one? If not, reword the start anyway.
• "over inflated due to playing in a Quarterback friendly system" overinflated...quarterback
• "In addition to the fact that many teams drafting between second and 23rd positions had positional needs more pressing than quarterback, Rodgers' moderate height (6'2") may have contributed to his precipitous slide." cites needed for that stuff.
• "Rodgers is one of six quarterbacks coached by Jeff Tedford to be drafted in the first round, joining Akili Smith, Trent Dilfer, Joey Harrington, and Kyle Boller." It says one of six but only five are noted; add the sixth.
• "In August 2005 at age 21" the age isn't really needed here.
• "Rodgers agreed to a reported five-year, $7.7 million deal that included $5.4 million in guaranteed money and had the potential to pay him as much as $24.5 million if all incentives and escalators were met." So he could get 4x as much as the contract was worth in incentives? I'm pretty sure that's not possible, so this needs rewording.
• "Rodgers spent a disappointing 4–12 2005 season as the Packers' back-up quarterback behind Brett Favre." backup's one word, and remove disappointing; modifiers need to be used sparingly on sports articles.
• "On November 19, 2006, Rodgers broke his left foot against the New England Patriots in a 35–0 defeat at home while filling in for an injured Brett Favre and missed the remainder of the 2006 season. Rodgers made a full recovery and was ready for the start of the 2007 season." what games did he play in in 2006 besides that, and what were his stats? Missing a good amount of info that could be useful in the first couple years.
• "meaning Rodgers would remain the starter." would become, since he hadn't started a game yet.
• I'm positive the personal life section could be expanded, giving how big a name he is.

This is an extensive list on things that need to be fixed, and I actually did not complete a read-through of the article. As a result I'm going to fail it as a GA. Once all these concerns are addressed, send the article in for a peer review before retrying for GA status. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 06:02, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

Suggested Change sentence: " In that game, Rodgers set a school record for consecutive completed passes with 26 and tied an NCAA record with 23 consecutive passes completed in one game." --- How could a school record of 26 consecutive completions only tie an NCAA record of 23 consecutive completions? Did he take the NCAA record, or was it a separate record, since he started the game with 23 completions? This should be clarified. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bpr103 (talk • contribs) 11:19, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

• Start beefing this up by talking about all his 300-yard games and 3TD efforts. As a sophomore he had 5 300-yard games. Not sure about junior. You should be able to do site searches (e.g., search on the term "Aaron Rodgers" site:sfgate.com) at sfgate.com and nytimes.com for some game details. ESPN may have details going back that far too.

on the 2013 season it says that the packers were 7-8-1 that would be not only 16 games but the packers would have been eliminated from playoff contention. The packers entered 7-7-1 and won with a td pass from aaron rodgers to randall cobb in the the final minute on 4th and 8. the win gave them 8-7-1 good enough to win the division 184.166.40.49 (talk) 06:40, 17 February 2014 (UTC)

In the 2013 section, the wrong record is shown for heading into the final game of the season. Also 'fought their way back' is not really appropriate language for a wikipedia article, and in any case hardly describes going from 5-6-1 to 7-8-1. This: the Packers had fought their way back to a 7-8-1 record going into the final week of the season should be changed to the Packers had a 7-7-1 record going into the final week of the season 173.20.208.73 (talk) 21:11, 3 April 2014 (UTC)

Replace the phrase "receiving core" with "receiving corps". It is likely that the wrong homonym was used, judging by the definitions and usage of the terms "core" and "corps".

Definitions:

• core: the part of something that is central to its existence or character.
• corps: a body of people engaged in a particular activity.

Usage:

• NFL's top receiving corps: Redskins, Bears lead the way
• Top Ten Receiving Corps: Late 90's Vikings

Punkstarman (talk) 12:17, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

Done I don't think there's anything incorrect by saying core, "receiving core" would mean the core, the most important members of the receivers. However, your sources and a quick Google search show that "corps" seems to be more commonly used. I suppose using corps also allows for some ambiguity on which receivers were dropping passes - corps allows for any of them, while core would mean it was their best Cannolis (talk) 16:23, 2 January 2015 (UTC)

GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Aaron Rodgers/GA3. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Hello, I will be reviewing this article. Let me take a first look-through and see what we have going on here. Sportsguy17 (T • C) 23:13, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

I've taken a first glance at the article and unfortunately, this is looking like this is going to be a fail. The 2011-2014 seasons are poorly sourced. They have some great information in them, but unless they're sourced properly, then whether it's good info or not is immaterial. Also, several ^{[citation needed]} and other similar tags are seen throughout the article. I can tell you the steps to take in order to get this to having a chance at passing, but this time around, I do not feel comfortable passing this article. @Church: If you want me to detail out what my issues are through a more in-depth review, I can, or I can leave it to you to figure it out. It's up to you. Sportsguy17 (T • C) 23:17, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

Sportsguy17, the nominator hasn't edited on Wikipedia since last year. At this point, over a month after your review, I think this has to be considered abandoned; since it looks to be a fail anyway, you should probably do just that. BlueMoonset (talk) 00:50, 17 April 2015 (UTC)
