Brees is a beast, and without rodgers a clear front runner for MVP. But Rodgers might just have played the best season of football for a quarterback, ever. 122 passer rating (when has another QB posted this kind of rating?!), 4600 yards, 45 TD. In an era of ridiculous quarterbacks, he has somehow raised the bar. He's clutch, he's accurate, and he rarely makes mistakes.
The one big advantage i'd give to brees is his offense looks damn near unstoppable at the moment, while the packers have shown a bit of weakness. If they meet in the conference title game, i'd give a saints a edge, though that's more to do with the packers defense.
P.S. i'm a 49er fan in case you're fearing any bias, it's hard for me even to consider a quaterback great if he's not named Joe or Steve.
Sure Rodgers threw fewer interceptions he played 2 FEWER games. i'm not really sure why thats relevant... I threw fewer INTs than both of them this year!
Maybe you haven't heard, but like INTs are bad. Also he threw less than half the # brees did, and while brees threw 150 more passes, 6 INTs over 500 attempts is pretty damn amazing.
