I know people say the other guys have better weapons but Adams is a top 5 WR in the league, Dillion and Jones both had 800 yards which ranked them both about 20th in the NFL for RBs and Packers had a better rushing game than Tampa or Cincinnati. Rodgers has the offensive weapons to work with too.
I've never liked Brady but the guy led the league in passing yards, passing TDs, passes for 20+ yards, only took 22 sacks, and his team didn't really have any sort of running game this year.
Honestly the only stat that Rodgers truly ranks above his QB peers this year is interceptions. His overall numbers most closely resemble Kirk Cousins this year.

The simple answer is that Rodgers did what he did with an offensive line who's starters still havent played a snap together this year. The best LG in the game made his season debut last Saturday night. His #1 TE caught 18 passes before being lost for the year. It was both an amazing coaching AND QB performance this year to get what they did out of the passing game.
Voters are all quite aware of that stuff as well.
Other than that though, I agree that others are right there with AR in terms of the seasons best players.
