Aaron Rodgers is the greatest thrower of the football in NFL History. That fact cannot be disputed, argued about, or even questioned. To only have 105 interceptions over 14 years as a starter is not only insane but impossibly great.
Sure, Rodgers won’t have the winning pedigree of Tom Brady or Joe Montana, but he’s made throws that few quarterbacks in the league could make. This Tweet from Eli Berkovits featuring these impressive Aaron Rodgers stats proves just that.

These Aaron Rodgers Stats Are Absurd (Packers History)
The graphic listed 2018 (25 TDs, 2 INTs) and 2019 (26 TDs, 4 INTs). Those years were considered down years for Aaron Rodgers stats and were the main reason General Manager Brian Gutekunst went out and traded for Jordan Love in the 2020 NFL Draft.
As it turns out, No. 12 won the 2020 MVP with 45 touchdowns and five interceptions and the 2021 MVP with 37 touchdowns and four interceptions.
What makes the 2018 season even more impressive for Rodgers is that he revealed on ESPN Madison’s “Wilde and Tausch” that he played on a tibial plateau fracture and sprained MCL in his left knee. (Via PackersNews.com)
To throw single-digit interceptions over a 16-17 game span in 500 attempts – I can venture to say – won’t ever be replicated again in the NFL. The closest thing to Rodgers right now is Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes, and he could statically put up Rodgers-like numbers because he’s mastered the point of reading defenses.
