What has surprised you or caught you off guard about Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers QB?

This can be good or bad.

Just that nothing seem to effect him, at least publicly. He did have that one out burst where he said something about getting behind him or shut up but that was the one, and I was thinking their would be a lot more.

One thing I down right love is that TT's high draft picks and most of the lower all seem to be mental tough and be able to handle them selfs on and off the field very well.

And the Packers don't have to worry about one of the players getting into a fight with a body guard the team had to hire to try to keep them out of trouble ::razz:

I like how he's managing the game. He looks like a veteran out there, telling the receivers where to go, making adjustments, throwing it away when no one's open etc.

I don't like that he got injured yet again. He might play through pain, but he's been injured quite often and badly. And some injuries you just can't play through.

I knew he was somewhat mobile but I'm really surprised with his quick feet. Also the way he's put the deep ball on the money lends me to believe we'll have exciting football for another 16 year

I'm surprised how much he can improvise, his playmaking ability. Escaping the rush and getting off some Brett-like(sorry) off balance throws was something I never thought he would be able to do.

I think the thing that has grabbed me most is his arm strength. I didn't think we'd have another cannon in at QB for a long time to come. I had heard he had a beautiful long ball and a weak arm.

His deep ball after the "experts" claimed it was poor.

That he ended up actually getting injured (figured it wouldn't happen cause so many hoped/thought it would).

That he's only had one wacky stache during the regular season.

A LOT of what he did in the Dallas game last year surprised me, so i've kind of been prepared for his excellent play this year.

His cool for a 1st year starter is a plus.
The way he shows injury is a minus.

I am surprised he's been able to play as well as he has injured. I honestly didn't expect him to make it six weeks without getting injured and missing time.

    beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.
