Set to meet again, where do Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers stack up among the greatest high school quarterbacks from California?

When Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers meet Sunday, it will mark only the third time the two quarterbacks have met as starters. Two of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history, the duo also rank as the top two signal callers in California history in our look at the Golden State's best ever at that position.

The list, based heavily on NFL accomplishments with a nod to high school and college performance, has Brady at No. 1 and Rodgers at No. 2. Ironically, neither were All-Americans in high school. Rodgers played for a year at the community college level. Both were somewhat overlooked in the draft with Brady falling to the sixth round and Rodgers dropping to No. 24 overall after being identified as the potential No. 1 overall selection.

Both Brady and Rodgers are off to strong starts in 2020. Rodgers is tied for third in the league with 13 touchdowns (and no interceptions) while Brady is fifth with 12 touchdowns. Fireworks could be in store. While the past two meetings between the two quarterbacks have produced only modest results, both have been part of some of the wildest offensive games in NFL history. Rodgers had 469 yards in a game against the Detroit Lions in 2012, which produced the NFL record for most net yards passing in a game for both teams (971). Meanwhile, Brady threw for 505 yards in the Super Bowl against the Eagles in 2018 that produced the most total yards for two teams (1,151) in NFL history.
