How bad are things right now for Aaron Rodgers?

The Packers’ unexpected three-game losing streak has evoked all sorts of talk.

Some say God has stopped rooting for the Packers. Others claim the Packers’ signal-caller is going though some personal problems with girlfriend Olivia Munn. And, let’s not forget the Mike Ditka Sweater Curse.

But nothing could possibly be more unsettling for Rodgers than this obscure stat.

#Bears First-and-10: For the first time as a Bear, Jay Cutler (98.7) has a higher passer rating than Aaron Rodgers (90.3) over a 6-game span

Rodgers is the NFL’s all-time leader in passer rating with a 105.8. In fact, he’s the only quarterback in history who exceeds 100.

Cutler, who is 1-11 against the Packers, has a 85.8 career passer rating.

Jay Cutler's 95.3 passer rating (13 TD/5 INTs) is his best after 10 games in his 10-year NFL career. His previous best was 92.8 last season.
