Packers’ divisional dominance under Aaron Rodgers is absurd

The Green Bay Packers defeated the Chicago Bears in a huge NFC North rival showdown on Sunday afternoon by a score of 24-14.

It was their fifth straight win overall and their fifth straight win over Chicago since 2019.

With that in mind, let’s take a look at some pretty absurd stats as it relates to Green Bay’s dominance in the NFC North as a whole under Aaron Rodgers.

Packers at Lambeau Field under Aaron Rodgers:

• vs. Chicago: 11-2 record (.846 win percentage), 257/393 (65 percent), for 2,891 yards, 32 touchdowns, five interceptions, and a 109.0 passer rating
• vs. Minnesota (incl. playoffs): 8-3-1 record (.708 win percentage), 285/411 (69 percent), for 3,230 yards, 25 touchdowns, four interceptions, and a 108.8 passer rating
• vs. Detroit: 10-2 record (.833 win percentage), 230/347 (66 percent), for 2,862 yards, 25 touchdowns, four interceptions, and a 110.9 passer rating

Overall at Lambeau Field under Rodgers, the Packers hold a combined 29-7-1 record against NFC North opposition. Since 2019, Green Bay’s home record against the NFC North is 6-1.

Overall, Rodgers also has a passer rating of 110.0 along with 8,641 yards, 82 touchdowns, and just 12 interceptions against the NFC North at home in his career. Additionally, Green Bay has scored a combined 27.6 PPG at home while surrendering just 17.8.

Packers at Chicago under Aaron Rodgers

• Rodgers’ stats: 305/452 (67 percent), for 3,571 yards, 25 touchdowns, eight interceptions, and a 102.0 passer rating

Additionally, Rodgers has gone a combined 58/88 (66 percent), while throwing for a combined 580 yards, four touchdowns, and just one interception with a passer rating of 94.8. Minnesota on the road has been tough on Green Bay overall but they still hold a winning record against them, which is a testament to the talent of Rodgers to elevate the team’s deficiencies as a whole in the face of adversity.

His stats add up to 535/788 (68 percent), for 6,130 yards, 50 touchdowns, seven interceptions, and a 108.5 passer rating. Even with the winning record, the Vikings have been a thorn in Green Bay’s side since Rodgers has become starter in 2008.

Divisional dominance

Lastly, Green Bay has won the NFC North a combined eight times since 2011 and has posted a 53-19-2 record against the division under Aaron Rodgers in 73 games played all-time (.733 win percentage).

That’s second only to Tom Brady in that span in divisional win percentage (Brady had a .769 win percentage against the AFC East). I think it’s safe to say that Green Bay’s success against the NFC North is well under control for the foreseeable future with Aaron Rodgers under center.
