    Only at QB. Everything else will likely need to be upgraded. QB is a different beast. There is a chance we see Darnold vs Maye as Super Bowl QBs. QB position right now is in a lull. Advanced everything around Rodgers and maybe he can help win like Peyton Manning did in his last year with Denver, barely able to move his neck.

    Go young everywhere. But Rodgers is the only QB they can use to play at the moment. If they have another option, cool. I’m just going by what they have now.

    This is a pretty accurate assessment of Big Ben.

    More physical talent than Brady

    Less mental talent and effort than Brady

    One is the greatest

    The other is struggling to feel relevant

    Darnold has a good chance to be the first QB from his draft class that includes Mayfield, Allen and Jackson to play in a Superbowl.
