GREEN BAY PACKERS QB AARON RODGERS MVP - Ingles

Super Bowl XLV News Conference
Dallas, Texas – February 7, 2011

(on no longer being overlooked) “I guess I ran out of motivation, huh? You know what, I’m always looking for challenges. I think the challenge now goes to repeating, scrutinizing this season, finding ways to get better. Obviously, being a perfectionist and having a quarterback coach who is as well, there’s going to be plenty of time to work on things and plenty of things to work on.

(on how he thinks he stacks up against other quarterbacks in the league) “Well, I was competitive last night. I need to play well for our team and Mike (McCarthy) and his staff had a great game plan. We rolled through some calls and I made enough plays to get the job done last night. As far as where I compare to other quarterbacks in the league, that’s for you guys to determine and talk about. As a kid, I always wanted to obviously win a Super Bowl. Now that I’ve got one, it’s like, ‘Now what?’ Let’s go get another one.”

(on how he has typically been referred to as an underdog and how he reflects on his career after getting the opportunity to win a Super Bowl as a starting quarterback) “That’s kind of been my career there, getting my opportunity and making the most of it. In high school, junior college, Division-I, being a backup, getting overlooked on draft day, three years as a backup, finally getting an opportunity and making the most of it. This was another opportunity that doesn’t come around too often. I just wanted to make the most of it and we did. Great team, great locker room. I’m just glad to be a part of it.”
