1. Aaron Rodgers is healthy

Arguably

The best quarterback in the NFL is Rodgers.

Rodgers has the ability to do everything on the field. He has excellent awareness and has a keen ability to make defenders miss. In addition, he can make every type of throw and is not careless with turnovers.

Last season in nine games Rodgers threw for 17 touchdowns and 6 interceptions. He willfully brought his Packers to the NFC Division crown and another playoff appearance.

Once Rodgers gets into a consistent rhythm and plays a whole season, once again people will realize that he is still the best quarterback in the NFL.
