Aaron Rodgers, B.J. Raji, and State Farm Make Football Fun Again

We all hail the great Aaron Rodgers for what he has become on the gridiron. Rodgers has transcended the game of football and in his own way had become the prototypical quarterback of the future. Rodgers is far from traditional as he uses both his legs and his arm to deliver accurate passes to his constituents. While Rodgers is the present and some would argue that Cam Newton is the future, they both possess something that not many superstar athletes can pull off. The both possess charisma.
Rodgers won me over last season when he started doing his championship belt dance at the end of big runs. While I am an admitted fan of wrestling, what Rodgers was doing was inflicting his personality. I see a lot of the same when Cam Newton scores and he goes and pulls open his shirt ala stretch Armstrong or Clark Kent and reveals who he really is.
Although Cam is not in any State Farm commercials, it would be cool to see him in one.
While these two both have transcended the game, it is rare that an offensive or defensive lineman can possess swag. Usually they do corny things like a subway commercial or anything with food involved. But the NFL and State Farm have shown us a new light. They have incorporated a series of commercials with B.J. Raji along with Aaron Rodgers (I know its an unlikely duo) and put together some of the best commercials to hit the airwaves in a while.
In fact you have to love what State Farm is doing in their commercials all together. They have been finding ways to make the characters of the leagues we know and love look fun loving and somewhat adventurous.
Well you have seen the commercials, but our friends over at State Farm have gone out of their way to send us some of the out takes and behind the scenes footage from some of these shoots. These are exclusive and are yet to be released so enjoy them.
