Quaterbacks are overrated in general...

Sunday, when my Detroit Lions (who I predicted to win the Super Bowl 8 month ago) lost to the Packers, I realized how inertchangeable quarterbacks can be for a team with a well designed offense.  Matt Flynn for the Packers passed for over 500 yards, a feat that even then QB who lead them to the Super Bowl, Aaron Rodgers could.  Hence, I think that this bandwagon that has come about labeling Aaron Rodgers as the best QB in the NFL is wrong.  I think this due to the very good offensive design and the amount of weapons the Packers have in there recieving core.  I'm not saying that Rodgers isn't great, I'm just saying he's not in the top 3.  This is just one of my examples to prove that the QB posistion can be almost interchangable.  With a good offensive coordinator, and good recieving weapons, the QB is just like a robot, who makes the throws he's required to;  there is nothing all that qunique about the middle class (even the upper middle class) of QB's in the NFL.
