The race for this year’s NFL Most Valuable Player Award officially ended on a cold and snowy night in Green Bay. It came to a conclusion when Aaron Rogers hit a touchdown pass after a touchdown pass and the Packers burned the Tennessee Titans Sunday Night Football .l. Prior to that point, Rogers was running neck and neck with Patrick Mahoms of Kansas City for that honor. After this latest performance, it’s hard to see how Rogers doesn’t deserve a bit more than that.
The Packers answered a number of questions during their 140-1-14 win over Tennessee, and it is clear that as the postseason approaches, they will be able to maintain a steady pace. They have their grip on the top seed in the NFC playoffs at the moment, and they decide not to let it slip. There’s a lot to him about how his future Hall of Fame fame quarterback is playing. The longer this season lasts, the more we remember what made Rogers so special in the first place.
The Packers are now 12-3, at the end of the season in Chicago, remaining on their regular-season schedule. His dreams of winning the Lombardy Trophy sometime in the near future are to do much with his quarterback excellence.
“It was a solid game,” Rogers said after completing a 21-24-pass for 231 yards with four touchdowns and an interception. “I felt good about my offensive performance. I felt like I was in a very good rhythm all day. Like last week, I also felt like we were running the ball so well that I had to be patient.”
Rogers is this year’s MVP for one simple reason: he’s done more with less. Mahoms has created another monster season with the help of the best tight end in football, the best threat in football and a bunch of other fast playmakers at his disposal. The Chiefs have so much talent that they are struggling to find a touch for the three-time Pro Bowl running behind Livian Bell. It makes life so much easier for depth mahomes when it steps under the center.
Rogers, on the other hand, has encouraged the drama of those around him. He certainly has his own pro bowlers – especially Aaron Jones and wide receiver Davant running after Adams – and Rookie AJ Dilne made quite an impression against Tennessee (124 rushing yards and two touchdowns). However, few people heard of targets like Robert Tonian, Alan Lazard, and Marquis Valdes-Scantling until Rogers started dropping the dime on them. This is one of the reasons why so many people are weeping over the Packers’ decision not to add more weapons to the roster during the Reason Fees.
It turned out that Green Bay was right in front office fees. They thought they could trust the future (using first-round picks on quarterback Jordan Love) and rely on Rogers to draw them into the present. Now that Rogers has dropped a touch season touchdown pass and only five interruptions this season, he has made it more difficult for his boss to see the best window to find love in the field. At 37, a year after many skeptics openly wondered about his impending decline, he has put up with the season.
That kind of brilliance can’t be dismissed.
“Being around him for the last seven years has really allowed me to know what the real competitor really is,” Adams said. “Everyone knows I hold myself to a crazy high standard and that’s been the case for a long time. But I’ll come and stay in such a situation and come and see until someone who has it and is not satisfied with it. What a success … being with that person allows me to know what true greatness is. “
The Titans saw for themselves what Adams was referring to. Rogers threw three touchdown passes in his first three seasons. He started early and often connected with Adams (11 receptions, 142 yards and three touchdowns). When the Titans started the rally – they closed the 19-24 loss after trailing 19-0 – Rogers Engineering kept Tennessee quietly at arm’s length through timely scoring drives.
