Aaron Rodgers Has High Praise for NFC North Rival Quarterback

Aaron Rodgers has been the undisputed king of the NFC North for many years. He has led the Green Bay Packers to multiple division titles over the years. Moreover, no other divisional rival has been able to outplay him.

The situation is now slowly changing in the NFC North. Other teams have started to improve themselves, and this could become concerning for the Packers. Aaron is well aware of this fact, and one of his rival quarterbacks has caught his eye. That quarterback is Justin Fields of the Chicago Bears.

During his appearance on the Pat McAfee Show in December 2021, he praised Justin Fields. Rodgers said, “I think he’s a really talented kid, You can obviously see he’s got a really good arm on him. He can really move around and extend the plays and make plays outside the pocket… He has a lot of star qualities with his presence and his abilities.”

Justin Fields has certainly shown some glimpses of greatness during his rookie season. He and Rodgers will be facing each other every year for a good amount of time, and their rivalry could turn out to be a great one.

Can Justin Fields outduel Aaron Rodgers in the upcoming season?

Last year, the Chicago Bears traded up in the draft to acquire Justin Fields. They view him as their franchise quarterback. Even though the Bears have had an infamous record of having bad quarterbacks, Justin just might be the one for them. He is an excellent quarterback who can throw powerfully, as well as run with the ball when required.

Like every year, the Bears need to get the better of Aaron Rodgers and the Packers to create some noise. Unsurprisingly, that hasn’t been possible over many years because Rodgers is just too good. He always gets the better of the Bears, and once again, he will be standing in the way of Justin and his team.

The Packers team is quite better than the Bears, and it will be fair to say it will take time for Justin and his team to be at the top of the NFC North. As things stand currently, Rodgers and the Packers will be the clear favorite to make it out of the division. What are your thoughts on this year’s NFC North situation?
