For those of you mocking my analysis that Brees is better than Rodgers this year, let's look at both teams that they play for. Obviously Rodgers has a much better supporting cast and some kind of running game. Brees has thrown the ball 379 times, where Rodgers has thrown it 265 times. You tell me which guy is relied on more heavily? When you throw the ball nearly every play, of course you will have more interceptions and a lower QB rating. I'm sorry, but Rodgers has a much better team around him. Without Rodgers, the Packers would still be a playoff contender and without Brees, the Saints would be crap.

Rodgers WR corp may be better but not by much,  Plus the Saints have a much better run game with Sproles, Ivory, Thomas and Ingram and have 300 more yards as a team rushing the ball. 

And then you say that Brees is relied on more,  when Rodgers is responsible for 26 of the 29 offensive TDs that the Packers have.   Brees is only responsible for 21 of 30 TDs.   

Its like you said there is nothing wrong with being the 2nd best QB in football,  So Brees being that shouldnt be a big deal
