Here are the top three quarterbacks in Green Bay Packers history.
Bart Starr
Bart Starr is one of the players who spearheaded the first Packer Dynasty. Starr quarterbacked the Packers to five NFL titles, including a three-peat, in seven years, between 1961 and 1967. Starr went 9-1 in the postseason, having a 61% passing percentage.
Aaron Rodgers
Aaron Rodgers was snubbed coming in the NFL. No division I program wanted Rodgers out of High School in Northern California. In 2002 Rodgers was recruited the University of California, Berkeley and immediately lit up the Pac 10 competition for 5,469 yards and 43 touchdowns over the course of two years.
In 2005, Rodgers was drafted by the Packers but only as a backup for Brett Favre. But when Rodgers was given the keys of the franchise in 2008, Rodgers completed 64% of his passes, and 28 touchdowns in his first season as a starter. In 2010 Rodgers led an almost impossible Super Bowl run, and was claimed MVP honors.
Brett Favre
Brett Favre was the Green Bay Packers. He’s the ultimate NFL iron man, Favre would grind 20 NFL seasons and an improbable streak of 297 consecutive starts. Brett Favre retired at age 41, owning every significant passing record on the books.
