Hailing from Chico, California is current NFL quarterback for the Green Bay Packers, Aaron Rodgers next on the list. What Aaron Rodgers has been able to accomplish over the past decade and a half has been nothing short of simply amazing. No matter the situation he and his team may find themselves in, Rodgers has the poise and leadership qualities to steer his team in the right direction towards success. Prior to playing for the California Golden Bears, Rodgers played at Butte Community College for the 2002 season. In two seasons at the University of California, Berkeley, Aaron Rodgers finished his career with an insane passer rating of 150.27, 17-4 overall record, and 2003 Insight Bowl MVP honors.
In the 2005 NFL Draft, Aaron Rodgers was selected 24th overall by the Green Bay Packers. For his first three seasons, Rodgers would rarely see the field, however, when starting quarterback and Packers legend Brett Favre announced his retirement in January 2008, Rodgers knew it was his time to step up and lead the Packers back to the glory land. In twelve seasons as a starter, Aaron Rodgers has raked in two NFL MVP honors (2011 and 2014) and helped the Packers win a championship in Super Bowl XLV against the Pittsburgh Steelers where he was also named Super Bowl MVP. After leading the NFL in touchdown to interception ratio four times, Rodgers currently holds the NFL all-time regular-season record for career passer rating and is one of two quarterbacks in history to have a passer rating of over 100 in a single season. With gas still left in his tank, Rodgers has the opportunity to continue building his case for best quarterback of all-time.
