On his third and final touchdown pass on Sunday, Rodgers moved into a tie with Brett Favre for the Packers' franchise record in career touchdown passes (442).

It's the fourth Rodgers has been nominated for the weekly award (Week 7, vs. Washington; Week 11, at Minnesota; Week 14, vs. Chicago; Week 15 at Baltimore).
