But composer quaternary touchdowns with inferior than 15 completions and a expiration termination proportionality low 50 proportionality place him in a superior assemble of quarterbacks in NFL history.

Let’s move with the quaternary TDs and inferior than 15 completions.

Rodgers was the ordinal Packers QB to fulfill this feat. Think you undergo the other?

If you guessed king Whitehurst, you undergo your Packers. Whitehurst had quaternary TD passes on 10 completions in a Sept 10, 1978 get over New Orleans.

Doug Flutie holds the NFL evaluation for fewest completions with quaternary or more TD passes. Flutie threw for quaternary TDs with the New England Patriots in a 1988 get over the metropolis Bears but had exclusive sextet completions on 18 transfer attempts in that game.

One more stat on Rodgers’ mettlesome yesterday: composer became the 31st QB since 1966 to hit quaternary TD passes with a termination proportionality low 50 percent.

Rodgers was 14 of 30—a 46.7 termination percentage. It was the ordinal instance since 2000 that a QB had four-plus TDs and a termination proportionality low 50 percent.
