After the departure of Brett Favre, Aaron Rodgers instantly became the face of the Green Bay Packers franchise.

Now,the NFL Network released its Top 100 Players Poll on Wednesday night and as many expected, Rodgers was on top.

Rodgers led the Packers to an NFL-best 15-1 record while leading the NFL with a 122.5 passer rating.

After winning the Super Bowl XLV, the Packers were a favorite to repeat last season. They started the season 13-0 but then lost 19-14 against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 15.

Five members of the New England Patriots cracked the top 100 list. Tom Brady came in at No. 4, Rob Gronkowski at No. 21, Wes Welker at 23, Logan Mankins at 64 and Vince Wilfork at 81.
