Aaron Rodgers and the Media

Wherever you turn today you find the media gushing about Packers QB Aaron Rodgers. And why not? The guy was nails in ATL on Saturday; and if post-season performance is the best measure of a QB, then Rodgers is off to a great start, having all three of his playoff starts end with a passer rating over 120.

Yes, everyone seems impressed with Aaron Rodgers...except, of course, Colin Cowherd, who notes that Rodgers is only 2-1 in the post season whereas Jets' QB Mark Sanchez is 4-1. Cowherd also pointed out that while Rodgers had a nice game v. ATL, it was the first time he has dominated a playoff game. For a coup de grace, he added that a loss on Sunday will make everyone forget about the ATL game.

So, the only question remaining for me is whether Cowherd is an ass clown or an ass hat...

  1. Why isn't media whore an option? His railing against random sports figures (John Wall as well) are simply unfounded and based upon self-promotion. Have you SEEN SportsNation? UNWATCHABLE!

  2. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that he's an asshole.

  3. I'm sure Falcons fans will forget being throttled as a #1 seed. Colin Cowherd claims to be such a hard worker but it doesn't show up in his opinions. It's like he's just winging it. I had a great laugh when he had Trey Wingo and Mark Schlereth (both of which I can't stand either) with him and they both told him you should never judge a quarterback completely on wins and losses. They both laughed at that idea.
