OFFENSE: QB AARON RODGERS, GREEN BAY PACKERS

• Rodgers completed 21 of 30 passes (70.0 percent) for 298 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions for a 135.1 passer rating in the Packers' 34-16 win over San Francisco. 
• He threw long touchdown passes to DONALD DRIVER (61 yards) and GREG JENNINGS (57), just the second time a player had two 50 yard TD passes in a December game at Lambeau Field (BRETT FAVRE, 1998). 
• Rodgers has not thrown an interception in five consecutive games and is the first Packer to not throw an interception in five consecutive starts since Pro Football Hall of Famer BART STARR in 1966.  He has not thrown an interception in 177 attempts, the second-longest streak in franchise history (Starr, 294). 
• He has posted a passer rating of at least 110.0 in four consecutive games.  It is just the third time a Packers quarterback has accomplished the feat; Rodgers in 2009 and Starr in 1966. 
• In his sixth season from California, this is Rodgers' first career Player of the Week Award.  He was named NFC Offensive Player of the Month in October 2009. 
• He joins BRETT FAVRE and ANTONIO FREEMAN as the only offensive players in franchise history to be named both Player of the Week and Player of the Month.    

DEFENSE: LB SEAN LEE, DALLAS COWBOYS

• Lee had four tackles and two interceptions in the Cowboys' 38-35 overtime victory over Indianapolis. 
• In the third quarter, he registered the first interception of his career and returned it 31 yards for a touchdown, becoming the 10th rookie in team history with an INT-TD. 
• He set up the game-winning score in overtime when he intercepted a pass at the Indianapolis 49-yard line and returned it to the 36. 
• Lee is the first Dallas linebacker to record two interceptions in a game since DEXTER COAKLEY in 1999.  He is the 11th Cowboys rookie with multiple interceptions in a game and the first since TERENCE NEWMAN had three in 2003. 

• In his rookie year from Penn State, this is Lee's first career Player of the Week Award. 
• He joins DE MARCUS WARE (Week 16, 2005) as the only rookie linebackers in franchise history to be named Defensive Player of the Week. 

SPECIAL TEAMS: KR-PR ERIC WEEMS, ATLANTA FALCONS

• Weems averaged 40.8 yards per kick return (163 yards, four returns) and had a franchise-record 102-yard kickoff-return touchdown in the Falcons' 28-24 win at Tampa Bay. 
• With Atlanta trailing 24-14 with 10:24 remaining in the game, Weems returned a kickoff 102 yards to spark the comeback.  It is the longest kickoff-return touchdown in team history, breaking the previous mark of 100 yards set by DENNIS PEARSON (1978), DEION SANDERS (1991) and DARRICK VAUGHN (2000). 
• The last Falcon to return a kickoff for a touchdown was ALLEN ROSSUM on December 15, 2002 (91 yards). 
• Weems ranks second in the NFL this season averaging 28.1 yards per kickoff return. 

• In his third year from Bethune-Cookman, this is Weems' first career Player of the Week Award.
