Sunday Superstars: Week 5 icons include Aaron Rodgers, Isaiah Crowell, Adam Thielen, DeAndre Hopkins & more
Picking Aaron Rodgers among a group of weekly standouts could essentially happen any week but here we are.
Why? It was a week where a lot of obvious stars did what they do and a week where a number of names who aren't as big on cardboard also had big days. The Green Bay Packers QB had his best game of the year yet, ironically, still lost. He completed 32 of 52 passes for 442 yards and three touchdowns. That's a bit freakish but it's still not the team record (480) which he owns a share of. He also threw three TDs in Week 1 but totaled only 286 yards.
His key cardboard -- Rookie Cards (2005) and autographs (click here to see them on eBay) -- are already pricey so this kind of a game may not make much of a difference. If you're a dedicated NFL collector, you probably have (or need) one, and if you pull one then you've captured a gem among today's stars. It may be tempting to cash in -- but it's also a safe hold for years if you ask me.
