Quote:It's a mixed bag. There was an article on Grantland about it. It's impossible to settle this because we will never know if Rodgers would have been good right out of the gate. Just like we will never know if someone can be ruined by starting to early. Maybe they just sucked.


Also not sure why some make the case like the right answer is to sit them when there are examples working each way and failing each way. The biggest factor is the player and his environment. I like ours and think Blake will have success regardless of how he is developed.


Everyone knows I prefer to play the rookie. I'm not right and I'm not wrong. It's just a preference.


As an incoming freshman in high school I got thrown into a varsity game at a basketball camp. Played against some team who won state the previous year and I got destroyed (double digit turnovers). It didn't ruin anything for me. I realize it's not the best example as the jump to the nfl and playing seniors in high school is way different. Just saying people learn in different ways and I always preferred to learn by playing.
