Green Bay QB Rodgers fastest to 400

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers yesterday became the seventh quarterback in NFL history to throw 400 touchdown passes, but he reached the mark faster than any of the others. Rodgers made it to 400 in his 193rd regular-season game, 12 fewer than the New Orleans Saints’ Drew Brees, who’d previously held the record. The 37-year-old Rodgers reached the mark in the Packers’ 30-16 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles, in which he threw three touchdowns, the exact number he needed to reach 400. The other five QBs with 400 touchdown passes are: Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Dan Marino, Brett Favre, and Philip Rivers. Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has 388 career touchdowns heading into tonight’s game with Washington. He has played in 229 games.
