Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Matthew Stafford

Sunday, January 5, 9:25 PM

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 23 of his 36 passes for 274 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception in a 32-20 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 18. Rodgers set a record by becoming just the fifth NFL quarterback to throw 500 touchdown passes in his career, joining Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, and Brett Favre in the exclusive club. The veteran quarterback finishes his second season with the Jets with 3,897 passing yards, 28 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions while appearing in all 17 of the team's games. It was a rocky season for Rodgers and a Jets team that had playoff aspirations in the preseason, only to fire head coach Robert Saleh in October and ultimately go 5-12 on the season. Rodgers is under contract for another season but the Jets could choose to part ways with the future Hall of Famer after the two sides appeared to have some issues throughout the season. After the game, Rodgers was not ready to state whether he would return for the 2025 season or retire. Stay tuned.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford completed 19 of his 27 pass attempts for 209 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Monday's Wild Card win over the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran signal-caller also took two sacks in the contest. All in all, this was a highly productive showing from Stafford and the Rams' offense. The 36-year-old had averaged 153 yards and just 0.3 passing touchdowns over his last three games, so the Rams' playoff win allowed him to get back on track with his highest yardage and touchdown totals since Week 14. His performance suggests that he's still capable of outperforming talented defenses when necessary, including pivotal playoff matchups. Fresh off dismantling the Minnesota Vikings, Stafford will turn around and prepare for another talented NFC team, the Philadelphia Eagles, in the Divisional Round.
