Enjoy the resplendence of Aaron Rodgers’ top 10 throws from 2019

Aaron Rodgers didn’t produce one of his greatest statistical seasons in 2019, but the moments of pure individual greatness were still abundant from the Green Bay Packers’ two-time NFL MVP-winning quarterback.

Rodgers, who turned 36 in December, can still craft the script of an incredible moment with his legendary right arm.

The Packers’ official Twitter account recently compiled a highlight video of Rodgers’ top 10 throws from the 2019 season.

Here’s a rundown of the 10, with accompanying video above:

10. Rodgers goes deep to Marquez Valdes-Scantling for 46 yards against the Lions on “Monday Night Football,” dropping the ball right over Valdes-Scantling’s left shoulder for a big play.

9. In Week 4 against the Eagles, Rodgers finds Davante Adams with a pinpoint deep pass over the top of the cornerback for 58 yards.

8. Rodgers’ perfectly-placed ball to Adams on third down gains 32 yards and helps the Packers escape the divisional round with a win over the Seahawks.

7. Rodgers converts a 4th-and-10 against the Giants with a strike to Geronimo Allison over the middle of the field while falling away from pressure and getting hit low.

6. Rodgers converts another fourth down with a 29-yard scoring connection to Adams, giving the Packers the early lead over the Bears in Week 15.

5. Rodgers hits running back Aaron Jones on a vertical route into the end zone against the Raiders, with his inside throw pulling Jones back into space and creating the score.

4. Rodgers stands tall in the pocket and delivers a well-placed ball for Allen Lazard, who went up and got the ball for a big score on third down during the Packers’ comeback win over the Lions in the season finale.

3. Another impressive touchdown pass to Lazard helps start a comeback against the Lions. Rodgers essentially throws Lazard open, creating a tiny window of separation with a perfect pass down the far sideline.

2. Rodgers’ longest completion in the air of the season goes over the head of Richard Sherman and lands in Adams’ arms for a 65-yard gain in the NFC title game.

1. Rodgers creates a signature moment of brilliance by eluding pressure and producing a miracle throw into the corner of the end zone to running back Jamaal Williams in the second half of the Packers’ win over the Chiefs.
