All year, I've spoke favorably of two quarterbacks - Kurt Warner and Aaron Rodgers - and they put on the show of the season yesterday. In a 51-45 shootout, they combined for 9 touchdowns and 800 passing yards. Warner completed 29 passes in 33 attempts, and posted a perfect quarterback ranking.
Compared to the other six quarterbacks starting in playoff games this weekend:
- Rodgers and Warner threw more touchdown passes the the other six combined.
- Each of them had more passing yardage than Brady, Palmer and Flacco combined.
- Rodgers and Warner completed 57 of 75 passes (76%) with one interception between the two of them. The other six quarterbacks combined for 99 of 175 passes (56%), and four of them had at least one interception.
- Warner had more touchdown passes than incompletions!
Too bad only one of these fine quarterbacks could advance.
