There are other guys on those Green Bay teams who dominated the game at the time, along with a superb collection of coaches that put it all together. No, I don't take anything away from his accomplishments, but by the same token, I don't think we can dismiss his 67 interceptions over the past three seasons at some pretty inopportune times that no one seems to care about.
I won't however, allow his current demonstrations of being a whiney little bitch take away from my overall dislike for the man. Not to mention this long held love affair the media has for their Golden Boy.

Of course he's not single handedly responsible for the Packers success, who's saying that he is? Besides, what player in NFL history has been single handedly responsible for any long-term success of a team??
But you can't deny he's been a huge part of it. I can't imagine the Packers having anywhere near the same kind of success they've had over the last 14 years with someone else playing QB.
Yeah he's thrown 67 INTs over the last three years, but you also failed to mention he threw 82 TDs over that same time.
