Fun fact, Aaron Rodgers has played in the same number of Superbowls as Rex Grossman.

Was this the game against Dallas where Watson had 3 TDs? If you look prior to that, I think he had another huge stretch of under 300 yard games. He hasn’t been much of a deep ball/heavy passer in years. A lot of stupid dink and dunks and let the receiver make a play 🙄

Being worse when compared to Deshaun Watson is never a good thing

Some context for data viz fans who don’t know much about American football. You can be a good, even great quarterback without regularly throwing for 300 yards in a game. If your team runs the ball a lot, you can be able to reliably throw when you need to, still lead your team to a win, all without breaking 200 yards. Also, teams with a big lead tend to run the ball more often, because running the ball is an effective way of running out the game clock, so it’s a self-reinforcing loop.
That said, the Jets are not a good team, and they haven’t been playing with many leads, so A-a-rod is washed.
Question to OP – is this based on NFL weeks or games where the QB was a starter? Rodgers was out all last season with an injury so assuming it’s the former 17 of those 28 games aren’t exactly his fault.
