Aaron Rodgers – UPI/Bill Greenblatt
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who completed 19 of 22 for 255 yards and three touchdowns in last Sunday’s 38-17 win over the Carolina Panthers has been named the NFC’s Offensive Player of the Week.
Rodgers finished the game with a 154.5 passer rating. It marked the fourth consecutive game with at least three touchdown passes and no interceptions.
Rodgers now has gone without an interception (minimum 15 attempts) in six straight games, tying Pro Football Hall of Famer Bart Starr for the longest streak in franchise history. Rodgers hasn’t thrown an interception in 192 attempts, the second-longest streak in team history (Starr, 294).
This is Rodgers tenth career Player of the Week Award and second this season. That’s second-most in franchise history, behind only Brett Favre who had 12 Player of the Week honors. Since 2010, Rodgers ten Player of the Week Awards are the most in the NFL.
