But cmon, that statement was ludicrous.

I would not take Aaron Rodgers, he is great and all but the past few years teams have beat his offense soundly if they have a good front four. I hate to use the word choke but he has had a few chokejobs in his career.

2008 - Ill give him a complete pass here, it was his first year.
2009 - He had a great season, Ill give him another pass losing 51-45 even though he fumbled the ball that was returned for a TD to end the game in the playoffs
2010 - Won the SB
2011 - Now here is where it gets very interesting and the chokes begin. After averaging 35 points in the reg season and begin the playoffs at Lambeau, they lose to the 9-7 Giants 37-20. This was obviously a choke.
2012 - Lost to the 49ers 31-45 at Candlestick. Similar to the Giants, the 49ers have a good front four.
2013 - Lost to the 49ers 20-23 in Lambeau. Obviously, the same front four.
2014 - Lost to the Seahawks 22-28 in CenturyLink. Another dominant defense.

Lets look back as early as the 2014 season. The Packers played a top 5 defense four times during the reg season and went 1-3 (the sole win against the Lions at Lambeau) averaging TWELVE points a game in the losses.

Teams with good defenses have proven that with a front four Aaron Rodgers can be beaten time and time again, history shows how the 49ers and Seahawks have Rodgers number.

Rodgers is a great QB but doesn't perform well against a good defense in the playoffs and that's why I would never choose him because during the playoffs a team is bound to go up against a defense like Seattle or San Fran.

Anybody who says Rodgers is the best QB today is foolish. Brady, by comparison, went 13-15 for 124 yards and 2 TDs against the Seahawks while his team was down 10 points against the best defense this league has seen for 15 years. Similar to Peyton, Rodgers may have better stats when it doesn't matter as much, but when you need a QB to take down the greatest defense you could possibly face then Brady is the man for the job which is why he is hands down the best in the game today.
Rodgers stats against the same Seahawks D in 2 games this season: 2 TD-3 INT 184 yard average 62.7% completion

While the all time greats usually still have good games against the best defenses, Rodgers' history shows he seems to always succumb to them.

I bring nothing but facts so please retort with facts

Give me stats, numbers, etc. Prove me wrong.

I love Rodgers as a player and he is a genuinely good guy - not cocky at all and he loves the game. But you have to call a spade a spade. If he continues his constant struggles against good defenses then he is on the path to join Manning and a choker in the playoffs. There is no excuse losing to the 9-7 Giants after going 15-1. There is no excuse being blown out by San Fran then losing to them the year after. There is no excuse for throwing 2 TDs against 3 INTs against Seattle this year.

He very much struggles against tough defenses and he has shown it. Like I said, I welcome argument but bring facts to the table the same as I have

He's actually incredibly cocky and you're omitting so many facts aside from raw numbers which is folly. I understand you don't have as much exposure to the team as a GB fan does, but it's 2015 and the internet has everything you could want. I cannot excuse ignorance when you make such a bold statement. Know the complete story instead of becoming a boxscore warrior.

You bring no facts.
It is not a bold statement, it's simply his history against good defenses which is atrocious. Do you deny it? If you do please bring examples of games that he has played good in against the best defenses like I have.

Don't bother replying with your opinion which means nothing, the same as mine.

You can just admit he has a harder time against great defenses when compared to other top 5 QBs in the game. He's still young and has time to turn it around.
