He threw just one touchdown pass against a defense that doesn’t have a great record of keeping the opposing offenses away from their end zone. Rodgers attempted 43 passes to his O-line but registered just 23 completions. Top it all off, the Lions’ defense intercepted three of his passes. Not a record an elite QB will want to see.
