Aaron Rodgers completed 33 of 50 passes for 343 yards and two touchdowns Sunday in a 34-23 loss to the Falcons. But as good as those numbers were, they pale in comparison to what he has done in his career.

With his second touchdown pass of the night Sunday, a one-yard strike on a shovel pass to running back Ty Montgomery, Rodgers tallied the 300th touchdown pass of his career, joining a very exclusive lists that includes names like Dan Marino, Tom Brady and Fran Tarkenton.
However, none of those men accomplished the feat as quickly as Rodgers, who reached 300 touchdown passes in just 144 games. No one has reached 300 touchdown passes faster in NFL history.
Also no has reached the 300-passing-touchdown-plateau with less interceptions than Rodgers.
A.J. Green, WR, Cincinnati Bengals: His fantasy managers should also feel better about receiving a “vintage A.J. Green” point total on Sunday, as he dropped 27.1 PPR points on the Green Bay Packers in what was reportedly the hottest game in Green Bay history at kickoff time (90 degrees). Those who drafted Green remained faithful despite his somewhat ordinary — albeit both double-digit in PPR scoring — performances the first two weeks, activating him in 98.1 percent of ESPN leagues in Week 3.

Chris Thompson, RB, Washington Redskins: He scored a touchdown less than 10 minutes into Sunday Night Football, marking his third consecutive game with a touchdown to begin the season, and finished with career bests in both PPR (30.6) and non-PPR (24.6) fantasy points, breaking the marks he set just one week ago. Thompson, who was started in 33.7 percent of ESPN leagues, is already almost halfway to his 2016 PPR fantasy point total (147.5) with 72.0 points through three games.
